| Remarks: |
The percussive metallic sound
that punctuates this track was produced using an authentic "anvil and
hammer" which had been borrowed from a local forge for this recording. An alternate mix of this track (which differs from the version that appears on the "Sir Army Suit" album) was included on the "Sun Set" CD released in 2005 by Bullseye Records of Canada. |
