Notes:

Sack Trick are an eccentric British music collective who have been compared to the humour of Monty Python and musical madness of Frank Zappa. The bassist Chris Paulo Dale (ex-Atom Seed and Bruce Dickinson) is the center of the group, guiding the audience through a universe that is more rock circus than rock opera, with a partiality for KISS, funk metal and species of animals such as rabbits, penguins and sheep.

The album also contains a brief journey into the slightly twisted, but very rock, world of messers Dale and Dickson with a montage of outtakes, demos and on the Swedish Release "Black Version" Dale's signature tune "I Play Bass". The English "Blue Version" is no less silly with appearances from Bruce Dickinson, Dickson's niece and a hilarious conversation about dinner arrangements (you may have to listen to it to understand what I'm on about.)
