  1. Did you know that during the recording of the album version of Ultraviolet, about 3'10" from the beginning, Larry loses the drumstick. For six seconds (until 3':16") Larry stops to play the snare drum to pick up the fallen stick with the right hand.

    Anyone else know other strange/funny facts like this?

    I've just listened to it and it's true! But i think that the result is the best despite the fact it was an accident!!!!!
    At first i thought Larry stopped playing the drums because he wanted it and i really liked this part of the song but now... i just love it!

    I had the same feelings when I listened to it the first time. It's really cool to imagine him picking up the stick .....I just wonder why they haven't chosen to repeat the recording session to fix it
    Maybe they thought it sounded cool, as it really is

    True...
    Maybe they didn't notice that he loses his stick so they didn't fix it

  9. 10 years listening to AB and I never noticed anything... It simply is great the way it is now!
  10. I had heard of that. Apparently, throughout the album you can also hear various band members whispering in the background 'achtung baby...'
  11. I just noticed that! Hilarious!
