- Lomg believed to stem from an interview of Swedish P3 FM radio with Andrew Eldritch and Patricia Morrison
on 24th August 1988 shortly after the release of Floodland. This source is not confirmed.
- On the other hand, this reel gives proof that the interview took place in London in November or December 1987.

The same interview is (partly or in full) available on other releases as well, see:
