Notes
Interviewer: Is there already Sixty To Zero, Part II? NY: It was all recorded at once, it was 18 minutes long and then I edited it down as 12 verses. So the other 7 verses are still there. I don't know what I'm going to do with those. Interviewer: Why don't you play them? NY: It doesn't feel right, it's too long at one thing. It's meant to stand by itself, not to be played, with anything else. If I play the long version in concert, it's too overpowering. If you can imagine listening to anything for 18 minutes, it disturbs the flow. It's too much of the same thing so I do the short version.
