 * (JP: 'Fred Frith on the bass too, there's a bloke who's been around for a long time. In fact, the first time Fred Frith was ever heard publicly was when he was in a band called Henry Cow, who won a competition I did on the radio in Britain. (It was) one of those things that you really regret doing: we decided to have a competition (where) bands send in tapes and things, and we'd pick maybe like ten or fifteen of them, you know, listen to them pretty exhaustively, perhaps go and see some of the bands play and then pick a winner ultimately, and we called it (slightly embarrassed cough) Rockertunity Knocks, which seemed like a good idea at the time. We got about five or six hundred tapes, and there were really only three that you'd ever want to hear again, and Henry Cow one of the three. I can't remember who the other two were, so there you are: it hardy made a great impact on showbiz.')
