Mike said that, when planning Amarok, he went back to the same ideas he was playing around with when he recorded Ommadawn. I'd imagine that some of the ideas he was talking of would have to be those which appear in those improvisations - I'd imagine that they're little melodies which he spent a lot of time playing around with until he found a place for them.
Strangely, it was only the other day I was saying how some of Mike's best playing is the stuff which doesn't make it onto his albums. He can still play like he did back then (though he himself says that he's not as good), just it obviously doesn't fit with what he wants to do on his albums.
