Comments: Jake Clemons on sax and Bill Blackmore on trumpet play during ‘Caravan’ and Glen name checks what other musicians/music to “turn up”, “turn Phillip King up…turn John Hegarty up” and after Jake’s solo, Glen ends the song by saying “turn Jake Clemons up”. Graham’s father Des Hopkins is celebrating his 70th birthday and he joins the lads at the end of ‘Star Star’, performing a brilliant drum solo. There’s an extended instrumental ending to ‘Lay Me Down’ during which Glen reads the poem ‘The Given Note’ by Seamus Heaney. Jake Clemons and Favourite Sons join The Frames for ‘Speed to My Side’.
