Comments: "Music from 'Feels Good To Me' and 'One Of A Kind' re-shuffled, improvised on, and broadcast live from 'My Father's 
Place,' Roslyn, New York on WLIR - FM 92.7 - July 12, 1979."

This album was intentionally packaged to look like a bootleg; in fact, the
original vinyl release bore the catalog number BRUBOOT 28. This album
also introduced John Clark as Alan Holdsworth's replacement. Another
high-scoring effort for Bruford.
Thanks to John Sowalsky for providing this information.
