Long Time Cryin' (Live)
Extreme lo-fi grunge. There's even lager on the tape! The coolest load of bollocks ever made. Just me on my own. Makes Jimi Hendrix sound like Ploddin' Joe Donkey...
The Fairest of Them All (Live)
This is pretty chilled out - slow, relaxing and hypnotic. Great to get stoned to! You go on a little journey.
Boom Boom (And Away I Zoom) (Live)
# Biker Metal! Live. This is just a mess-about improvised joke track. Good to dance to lol. Me tryin out my joke 'metal' voice. Nicked sample - can't remember where from...
