Speaking of “Just a Scratch” and “Catch Me If You Can,” keyboardist Graham Wright said the songs are “full of everything that made me fall in love with this band in the first place.”
Wright continued: “I hear parts that we could have come up with in the garage back then, and parts that we could never have dreamed of until now. I listen to all the music we ever loved and all the music we made and, most importantly, I listen to US, the four of us, the hive mind that is TPC, with all its ideas and enthusiasm.”
