Russell collaborated with D'aquisto on "Is It All Over My Face", I believe Russell played the electric piano on that track. The West End release comprises 2 versions of that track which were edits/remixes of the work Russell and D'Aquisto did. The male version featured vocals by 3 or 4 guys hauled down from the loft. Apparently the original session tapes covered hours of the assembled group jamming on the track, which then had to be edited down. The bazillion different "Go Bang" marked I think the beginning of the concept of 'Sample as Signifier' in dance music. Often the 'remixes' have nothing of the original track except the vocal sample.
