- File of tape now available.
- John is 'very taken' with Amazulu session poached from Kid Jensen - "One of those session where you go quite weak, really pleased that I got this out first."
- Frustrated moan from John about the difficulty of obtaining obscure records whizzing round London on his bike eg: "Sex Werewolf For Your Love by Garth Annihilus on Bongo Brain Records, well I haven't got that... of course they could have been made up."
- Most of the show and session tracks have been recorded, beginning and end of show are intact, but some tracks have been edited out of the original tape with the pause button, sorry about that.
