1974. Produced by Brian Eno

Richard Lloyd
This was NOT produced by Brian Eno. Richard Williams from Island wanted to record the band and described that he would like to bring Eno along because Richard didn't know anything about how to record in studios. So we said OK, but didn't use a single idea that Eno brought. And then listening back we realized that Richard Meyers:(Hell) couldn't play bass with Billy all over the place so he soon after left and we brought in Fred Smith, and the music got much more stable. This version is too fast.

yea, you guys sounded worlds better with Hell. and he could always play, yall were just always to straight to feel his playing is all. the truth is, you all liked Ayler and coleman and stuff back then but truth is you wouldnt have known black music if it bit you guys on ur ass. hell had more soul in one hand then all of later television did. smith played just fine, but yall got so boring. love you tho lloyd ur just known for re writting history is all
