Recordings were made @ Volcanic Music & Invisible Music with plenty o'beer & mastered to DAT with liberal applications of port. We would have liked to note for historical purposes the precise instruments played, but we were too giggly to focus on anything but the big picture.
Especially recorded without the inherent waiting of formal recording techniques such as repeated takes, getting that special drum sound, or mastering on a different night than the actual recording session so as to have fresh ears. We consider our selves brave pioneers in the sublime art of one take music, found lyrics, and rapid deployment of no second guessing. BLUBBER thanks for listening.
The cover declared side B to be the Fantastic Side, yet the label on that side says Fascinating.
