Great post, as ever. I took my then 9-year-old son Frank to see SY perform pieces from this album at the Royal Festival Hall in London in 2001. Despite my warnings, I suspect he was expecting to hear "100%", "Teenage Riot" and the like (as were many much older members of the audience who kept shouting out requests throughout the show, despite its clear billing). I can't really speak for him, but Frank seemed to love it; he's been making experimental electronica for the last two decades, so maybe it left some imprint!

Thank you Simon!
