I recorded this in London in 1980 at Jelly Studios in Muswell Hill, if I remember correctly the neighborhood. It was April, and I'd been working inLondon few weeks there to save up money to record three songs with the musicians I'd met and was living with in Tufnell Park area. I played all the guitars, and a violin player from the London Symphony Orchestra came in with arrangements based on a cassette version I made for him. I don't remember the bass player and drummer's names, they were barely out of their teens. The engineer and studio owner was Jon Wilkinson, who worked for John Entwhistle and other people connected to the Who. We did this mostly in one day. I loved the result, but the musicians I was with did not, and demanded a remix, which sounded much worse, and we went with the first one you hear now.
