Notes. Fourth of 4 CDs of archive material compiled by Brian Hopper from early Canterbury ‘family’ recordings. Sound quality is variable. Kevin Ayers (vocal) appears on 1 track ‘Johnny B. Goode’ recorded at ‘Tanglewood’, the Hopper family home, in the summer of 1964. Claimed to be the first ever recording of Kevin’s voice in an early rehearsal for the Wilde Flowers, this track is cynically and unforgivably separated from the two songs from the same session included on WF3. Feel exploited.
