Twink Alder is an ancient drummer who's been in about a million bands,
including the Pretty Things and the Pink Fairies.  Isn't he also Turner's
partner in crime on the recent "Pinkwind" affair?

"Bloody radar crew..." :)  Featuring the late great Viv Stanshall, as
well (but I'm not sure which parts are him).

BTW, the "missing" track, "The Widow's Song", which was on the lyrics
sheet but not on the LP, turned up eventually on _Friends and Relations
3_ (in a new recording?).  I don't suppose it's on the CD?
