Depeche Mode's "Never Let Me Down Again" from "Music for the Masses."

Sequenced for the Roland MT-32 and Compatibles by Mike Doyle
with Drum Tracks by Gene "Doc Doc" Petro.

History of this sequence:

I did a rough version of this in April '91 with no drums, didn't like it, 
and pretty much gave up on it.  Then Gene "Doc Doc" Petro, a composer of 
ROL files for the Adlib card, asked me if I had any ROLs that needed 
"doctoring" up, his speciality.  I converted this sequence and a few
others to ROL files and uploaded them to his BBS.  He used the Adlib
Visual Composer to add drums to this one, didn't change anything else,
and released it as one of his "Doc's R&R series" for the Adlib card.

Well, even though Doc has never heard any Depeche Mode (!), the drums,
while much different from the original, are pretty decent. So this 
weekend (18-20 Oct 91) when I finally "got a round tuit" I used 
Sequencer Plus to merge his ROL file into my  old rough draft sequence.  
To my delight, the percussion matched up perfectly.  I deleted the 
other tracks, and spent at least 4 hours listening to the original and 
recording, cutting, and pasting. This is the result.

The original is full of many, many layered sounds; for those that don't 
know it, Depeche Mode is pretty much an all-MIDI band (minus a few guitar 
licks) that tries very hard to pretend they  aren't - afraid of stereotyping 
as a computer-formula band, I guess. Anyway, there is no way I could come 
close to the complexity of the original on the MT-32. This is the best I 
could come up with in 3 or 4 (or 5?) hours.  It could stand some more 
layering. Have at it!
