errata/clarifications: Miguel Frasconi has supplied the lineup of the Jon Hassell Performance Group: "Jon Hassell on trumpet, Michael Brook doing live processing/sampling and kalimba, JA Dino Dean on slit drum and percussion, and me on udu (clay pot drum) and keyboard (a Casio 202, processed by Michael). I think this was the first time Jon ever played without a pitched drone, because his old scalatron blew up during sound check. All the better to hear his unique trumpet technique.". Grand Valley State University is in Allendale, Michigan. The only guitarist on Continental Circus was Daevid Allen himself (+ Christian Tritsch on bass, Didier on sax, Pip on drums, Gilli on space whisper). The only supplementary player on the "Mumps" suite was Jimmy Hastings (flute and sax). Sunwatchers are from NYC. That's Didier Malherbe playing flute on Kevin Ayers' "Lullaby" and David Bedford on electric piano...Kevin wrote the melody but it's not clear that he played anything on the recording.
