Agitated Radio Pilot - A Premonition Liner Notes by Dave Colohan... The music on this EP, with the obvious exception of the first track (!) is an attempt to channel something more joyful & ecstatic than the Pilot is used to. The songs came out of improvisations & have minimal or no overdubbing. My favourite memories of these recordings are of Shane playing a prepared piano with a pair of car horns, while maintaining a perfectly serious face & on the other side of the country, in the blessed Venice of the West, The Phantom Dog doing his vocals on a chair...eyes rolled into the back of his Ghost-head, singing whirlwinds of ecstasy at the Moon. As ever it is a pleasure to share space in the music with Sean Og....who didn't even throw me out of his house when I asked him to play something "cosmic!"
