We Work The Black Seam: Nuclear power related liner notes from a Sting album

I just thought this was an amusing liner note for the above song.

"The melody for 'Black Seam' has lain among my mental notes for perhaps ten years, could never finish it, or find a suitable lyric until the miners' strike and a long talk with a friend who has a job trying to mend nuclear power stations with gaffer tape."
'Bring On The Night', '86

The lyrics are kinda nice too. Sting for all his criticisms knows how to turn a lyric or two. Plus, the Police rocked.
