Incorporating the Asassins of Allah old topic.

Meant to reply to this a while back? When I think of it I would be happy for 
the band to drop this song but each time I hear it live (like Angels of 
Death) I enjoy it. A couple of friends of mine came to the Astoria at Xmas 
and both said Hasan I Sahba, as it was in it's original form, was the song 
they enjoyed the most and one of them hadn't properly seen the band for 25 
years!

Personally would love to hear Kings of Speed in the set.

Eddie.
