家宝"From Brussels With Love"の翌年、同クレプスキュールからの素晴らしい二枚組オムニバス。古典に彩られたポピュラーミュージックの前衛、などと破綻した形容しか思いつかない。
Roddy Frame参加の"The French Impressionists"、Virginia Astleyのピアノをバックに”Marguerite Duras”インタビュー、This Heat - A New Kind Of Water"を思わせるメロディーの"323"、本盤のみでしか聴けない"DNA"3曲(後にCD化)、"William S. Burroughs"のライヴ等、2007年にLes Temps Modernesからボーナス付きでCD化されたが今だに興味は尽きない。全くらしく無い"Paul Haig"が最も本盤の趣旨を体現している様に思える。Hannebertのジャケットもまた素晴らしい。
