Keith Kniveton returned the ‘Day of the Quake’ demo to me a few months back. In his words:

“An interesting tale how I came upon this. At one time I had the job of going through Dave Brock’s tape archive, digitising and cataloguing along the way. I’d bring the tapes here and run them through a Revox and see what was there. After completing a tape of Dave’s solo stuff, I noticed a splice had broken and left a small amount of tape stuck to the supply reel. I carefully unpicked it, and re-threaded the tape and this is what I found.

Quite how it ended up on the reel in the first place I have no idea, and Dave didn't recall it either. Perhaps Robert sent it to Dave as part of a collaboration for Earth Ritual?”

Keen ears will recognize some of the music from the ‘Kid from Silicon Gulch project, however it is a new song with new lyrics. 
It is a demo, please don’t lose sight of this, but I think it is a good song. Definitely more than just a curiosity, and Keith has done a great job sprucing it up. Unless anyone can correct me, it sounds like the Wasp, on tape, in the cellar, on a Revox. Again, a demo.
