I can't remember anyone else on the vibrasound demo, just us four but it is 23 years ago.

I wondered if Tim might be on there somewhere, doing something - playing keyboards maybe? Or would that have been Jarvis?

The early EP's will always have a special place in my bones, I like the look of them and the sound...little girl is timeless!!

Agreed... do you have any opinion on why those records somehow have 'it' to a greater extent than Freaks? Same musicians, same gear, same studio, same sort of timeframe... you'd expect it to sound pretty similar really!

So what was happening by the time it got to Freaks then... was it kind of the beginning of the end by that point, bearing in mind you split up a few months later?

Don't know if you noticed in the book but Russell seems to have quite fond memories of recording Tunnel for some reason, do you remember anything about that at all?

Dug this out the other day by the way, thought you might appreciated it (might take a while to load as I've not resized it properly):



On a totally different topic, do you see much of Magnus these days? I ran into him a few times around the time the book came out, he always seemed on surprisingly sprightly form I thought....
