While dancing on tables to celebrate the successful conclusion of Cast's Japanese tour, guitarist Liam "Skin" Tyson fell breaking his arm. This necessitated postponing their debut US tour. I worked at Polydor at the time and booked this acoustic radio tour to maintain their profile until the proper full-band tour could start.

This 1997 "Guiding Star" B-side was recorded (May?)1996 for US station WXPN/Philadelphia's syndicated World Cafe show. John Power & bassist Peter Wilkinson were in the homestretch of a hastily scheduled, grueling 25 station/15 city/20 day coast-to-coast US acoustic radio tour. John decided on the fly to do a special solo song for this nationwide broadcast. The arrangement was worked out that morning in 2-3 rare spare 20 minute breaks from doing press, traveling, etc.
