released October 1, 2021

All songs written by Chris Riley except Track 1 which is a Riley / Gawman composition with James Gawman having written the lyrics.

Tracks 1 to 7 were recorded at First Avenue Studios, Heaton, April 2004 by Dave Curle.
Adam Sinclair plays on Tracks, 1, 3, 5. 12 and bongos on 7
Graham Sinclair plays bass guitar on Tracks 1, 3 and 5
Sarah Williams plays the flute on tracks 1 and 4

Tracks 8 and 9 were recorded at Tranwell Studios, near Morpeth, April 2005 by Ross Lewis and feature the Mandalas which were Iain Davidson on electric guitar, Peter Dinsdale on bass guitar and Marty Wilkinson on drums.

Peter and Marty also feature on Track 10 which was recorded in the band Justroy at The Cluny, Newcastle late 2005.

Track 12 was recorded at Washington Arts Centre February 2003 during the tenure of the short-lived band Mock Fish. I can't remember who recorded it. He did a good job. I think the bass player's name was Martin Baker.

Remastered at The Culture Bunker on behalf of Nice Mind Records.
