On 17th May 1985 during the Absolute Tour Mike Peters and Eddie Macdonald went to Pluto Studios in Manchester, England and recorded In The Cold Light Of Day for Alan Shacklock as a possible song consideration for Roger Daltrey, whom Shacklock was producing at the time (Under A Raging Moon). It was not used as by the time the tape got to London, all the songs titles for recording have been chosen (including After The Fire’ written for Roger Daltrey by Pete Townshend). The basis of this song eventually became “Only Love Can Set You Free” from the 1987 ‘Eye Of The Hurricane’ album
