I was just listening to that song and was curious if any one knew when it was recorded. It's an amazing song!

Recorded at the Washington Avenue warehouse, Minneapolis on August 1, 1985.
Clare Fischer added strings in July 1986.
"Splash" was mentioned as a possible track for the aborted Roadhouse Garden album in 1999.
I love this song too, Your lips, your arms, your legs, your face

thanks!
