Sorry to hark back to the old Nick Drake chest-nut , but B and S 
obviously have a lot of respect for him. I think Stars of Track and 
Field... is a direct reference to Nick's own incredible prowess as an 
athlete when he was younger (his long-jump record still stands at his 
old school, and I also went to his college in Cambridge where tutors 
remember his swiftness at running rather than his musical ability.) 
Thanks for the help with the sheet music.
