I also think Jimbo was very diplomatic at the end when he was really thinking that it was alright but nowhere near as good as his full-fat JCM900 he's had since the 90s! Ha!

Very much so.

Would love to see just the footage of him playing through the songs from this.

I'm glad he had his moment to discuss his songwriting process in more detail from a guitar playing perspective and not just "the lyrics guide me."

I'll be watching that interview again.
I'm about an hour in and it's really fantastic, some little gems about the early days I'd never heard about and James comes across as just the most humble and affable guy ever and the interviewers do a great job letting him talk and guiding the whole thing. Excellent stuff.

Just started this but I'm saving it for when I can concentrate on it. Looks like a corker!

Thanks, some great bits in that.

My Brave Friend originally being called 'The Greatest ' as it was written for Forever Delayed probably blew my mind the most though!

Really enjoyed this. Some nice tidbit. Love the fact the Sean is the work smart(quiet Nick) rather than work hard type. Hope he does take James's suggestion, Futurology really benefited from Sean's sampling and other stuff.

I do wonder how many hidden James demo tracks there are in the vaults.

How many songs did they write for the Forever Delayed sessions. I think we're on seven now if we include Door to the River (questionable obviously)?

I'm still blown away they kept a gem like Rosebud on a shelf for 20 years so who knows how many other dynamite tracks they have stowed away currently. I mean these are the same guys who thought Tolerate would be a b-side after all.
