This broadcast is an 80 minute collection of improvisations taken from the same time period that the new album was culled from, and is the cutting-room floor disc for the album.

I like a big neck - thick, flat and wide. I lacquered the fingerboard with Rustin's Plastic Coating. The tremolo is interesting in that the arm's made from an old bicycle saddle bag carrier, the knob at the end's off a knitting needle and the springs are valve springs from an old motorbike.
