The 12" single of "Honestly" has a live version of "Loving You" on the back, which was recorded in Tokyo on their Soldiers Tour of Japan. It smokes! Timmy Gaines' bass is punching all through the song and, as usual, Robert Sweet is tearing it up on the drums (lots of cymbal smashes). It's really obvious why Robert is exhausted almost to the point of collapsing after each show. This song doesn't have the mega touch-up production that live albums have, so it's a little rough on the edges, but nevertheless, it's a hot performance of a killer song. I don't know about you, but I really love the songs on their debut EP. Stryper and Enigma are all too aware that people buy up any of their "limited edition" stuff, and this single is certainly a worthwhile purchase because of this live track.
