Music From The Balcony certainly sounds as if it might contain bits that come from the Amarok composing process, though I wouldn't dismiss it as just a collection of Amarok leftovers. Back to top

Remember the stuff that was writen for the Sallyangie album? I reckon quite a lot of Amarok was made up of decades worth of bits and pieces he'd saved up because he didn't know what to do with them.
