It must have seemed like a good idea at the time. Record an album in a week. Guitar on Monday, drums on Tuesday, bass on Wednesday, keyboards on Thursday, vocals on Friday, overdubs Saturday, mix on Sunday. Voila! Job done with expectations not too high, hence minimal stress on the artist and all others concerned. 'We never got further than the guitar really,' laughs the bloke who devised the cunning plan. 'He was a bit out there. You couldn't really communicate with him. He would sort of drift off and leave the studio. None of the songs were finished. Well, they weren't really songs as such, they were more like 12-bar blues on the guitar, which he never really got through. He'd only get to the tenth bar... It was sad really.'
