Shock-Mr.X in Space Cowboy?!
Just found out on stuartzender.co.uk in Q&A a shocking fact, that Zender didn't play the bass in Space Cowboy album version! 
Here's the quote:
| Quote: |
| I did not play the album version of Space Cowboy. It’s a kind of sore spot for me because at the time we had finished the album and I had planned a holiday with my then girlfriend. We were coming to the end of our relationship and I wanted to try and get some closure. Jay then told me that we were to go into the studio to record an album version of the single on the date I was supposed to leave. We went to a cafe and had a heart to heart and I was sure he understood why I had to go and see her. My heart was breaking. The holiday was actually planned a month before the new session was booked. Anyway, he informed me that it was cool and that we would work something out. Well needless to say when I arrived back in town he had got another bass player in to play with the band on that version...Mr. X. It was a double whammy for me because I learned on my holiday that my girlfriend had an affair wih someone else.....bogus huh! This was the beginning of the end for me, for I had always looked up to Jay and then, to have him do that really hurt. I do however understand that he had to do what he had to do. It was after all his band. |
Who's Mr.X? Any ideas? |

Actually, te video version and album version are two different songs. Not completely, but bass line is somewhat different. So, Zender being in the video is not a proof of this story being bogus. I still believe it could be true. |

Zender played on the Space Cowboy (Classic Radio Remix), which is the same as the music video (thats why Zender was featured on the video. Do you think that he would have actually faked playing someone elses chords for a video??????? It is true that the album version was not Zender, and you can actually hear the style is not very much like Zender if you listen closely. |

it's not the classic radio remix, that's a remix from david morales, the audio from the video version is the radio edit, and edit from the stoned again version, in wich Stu plays the bass, the album version as said it was played by Mr.x
this was already discussed here....
