"When we recorded songs for what became our album 'master release', we were set up in the meeting room of a ski-lodge and played at all hours. We ended up with a quite a bit of music. 'Fall Guy', 'I See Through' and 'Right Here Too Much' were songs that ended up as movie soundtrack cuts and b-sides. We asked New York Sax heavyweight Charles Gayle to fly out and join us for some jams. He did and we rolled tape for a couple of nights. What a great time, what a great guy. The results have not been released until now. I included some live tracks from the Weight tour to finish. Hope you dig it. We thank you. Henry Rollins 09-08-03".
