Liner Notes

"'I am the Eggman' by John Lennon was my lyrical inspiration for this record, and sparked off the song. In fact, I never said it in the press, but Lennon (and Prince) were my inspirations for most of this record. Dom Chad did the intro riff, I played everything else. The video was partially shot in my grey house in Chester."
