Notes

"Remembered by everyone at Transcription as a total disaster. 'They wanted to do "Starship Trooper", but after six hours we gave up.' recalls Bob Harrison; 'when they got it right, my mix wasn't right, and vice versa. Even their own engineer, Eddie Offord, who came along, couldn't seem to get them what they wanted. Eventually they just did the one acoustic number.' -- from 'In Session Tonight: The Complete Radio 1 Recordings" by Keith Garner , 1993
