It's on the 'Prophets of Time' CD (Cleopatra), the second Nik CD on that
label, featuring the usual suspects (Grenas/Del Rio/Fox/Helios
Creed/Del/Simon House) doing mostly remakes of Inner City Unit tunes (GREAT
version of "Stonehenge Who Knows" with Simon playing an amazing violin
solo), as well as a few recitations of Moorcock poems, including this one,
actually spoken by Genesis P. Orridge (Throbbing Gristle, Psychick TV, blah
blah etc.).  As one would come to expect for releases of this ilk, all the
ICU tunes are credited to Nik (even though most were written and/or
co-written by Dead Fred and/or Judge Trev), even "Nuclear Waste", which
wasn't even written by ANY ICU members!

In short, not as essential Nik as the live CD's on Cleopatra, but still 20
times better than the Pinkwind albums.  Completely worth it IMO for the
version of "Stonehenge Who Knows" by itself.
