I think BWS is a fantastic piece of work! It shows off the side of Underworld / Rick
that I tend to like the most. I listen to it on the train from work all the time! In fact,
the ratio of BWS to Barking plays is easily over 10-1 for me!

- It might have been mentioned somewhere earlier in this thread, so I appologize if it
has, but the high pitched vocal parts in "Dreeve" and "(Soundtrack for the film) Van
Halen Van Halen" were conversations between Rick and John Warwicker that were
recorded (by Rick) as they walked around Soho about 15 years ago. I got that
straight from the horse`s (Warwicker`s) mouth!
Knowing the above puts everything in better context, and makes understanding what
they are talking about, and who is saying what, a lot easier. I`ve listened to Dreeve
pretty closely and you can understand most of it! They are basically having a light
conversation about graphic art, music, etc... Again, many probably already know
about the conversations, but for those that don`t I think this is a truly fascinating part
of the album, and (for the parts that can be understood) it opens a small and brief
window into what was going on back then in Rick and John`s mind, while at the
same time leaving out any specific references to pieces of art/music that they were
working on at the time!
btw - It seems that Rick used to have a dog named "Bill"
