If this is Harrison, I'm gonna guess that percussionist William Winant is playing on this. An Invigorating piece!

That little "Trinidad" glitch was fun. Wish it had been intentional!

Bethany Ryker:

The Harrison was the first piece I played, there was a little spill-over from Night People...
  8:22pm
P-90:

@Edgar: you seem to be referring to music played on the Night People show that precedes A440. The were playing Bach organ pieces, some or all of which were W. Carlos' synth arrangements.

This piece by Vinao is very intriguing! An unexpected discovery.

@Jake: Is it calling them "animals" that's the problem, or the fact of keeping them caged??...
