Yeah, this has taken a few listens to grow on me but it's a worthy rendition.

Interesting to read the credits lay-out on Pulp's page on Youtube for this song: the original Pulp members are labelled as "Associated Performer" while the extended five (Rich, Adam, Em, Jase and Andrew) are all referred to as "Studio Musician". That must be for royalties-related contracts? I thought the way everyone was credited on the album as being a writer showed that they are effectively a nine-piece now but maybe there is a distinction.

Nah, big bands like Pulp dont include new members like that all of a sudden. They probably have a very tight deal to reform and no way they will include "random" (sorry) new members. So yes there is a distinction. 

Same for Oasis, only Liam and Noel are full "real" member of Oasis, Gem and Andy have different contract and they joined 26 years ago ! 

Jarvis has a two companies and the money probably goes through that

All were created before the 2011 reunion, so I guess it was set in stone back then and won't change now, no matter who comes and go in the band. Its those 4 and that's it.
