The mandolin instrumentals were accompanied on rhythm guitar by my old school friend Mick Audsley who also wrote the lyrics for '3rd of November'. An aluminus from Telephone Bill, the very talented Gerry Hale, submitted the wonderful fiddle and Dobro tracks on 'Hard Drive' (by cassette would you believe) all the way from Australia, in a great example of intercontinental collaboration. The backing on the Acoustic Rock tracks, ('3rd Nov', 'Hole in My Heart', 'Time Flies', 'Every Now and Then') were provided by 'The Missing Persians' my lovely band in Oxford. 'Cactus Dreaming', 'Mr Wilson' and 'Coming of Age' were ably backed by Telephone Bill and the Smooth Operators. All the other noises and all the compositions I have to take full responsibility for.
