Life in a Day (1979), produced by John Leckie. Approximated from Simple Minds' documented 1979-era rig (Roland Jupiter-4/early Jupiter-series polysynth / Sequential Prophet-5): a keys part built as 1 sine + 1 saw -1 (electric-piano-like), filtered through a lp12 stage with cutoff moving as static, timbre from the oscillator mix.
