2002 saw the 35th anniversary of the Basement Tape recordings and The Second Annual John Green Day was spent in celebration of what went down at the Big Pink all those years ago.

One of the highlights of the day was the performance by folk legend Julie Felix, which coincided with the release of her long-awaited double CD of Dylan covers.

Tracks recorded for the new album included Visions of Johanna, Masters Of War, Not Dark Yet and Gates Of Eden. Guests in the studio during recording included John Renbourn and P. J. Wright.

The album was recorded in September and October 2001 at Attic Studios, Orkney, and the Blue Moon Studio in Banbury.
Cold Overture (right) went down a storm at the event. They're a group destined for greater things - and are playing for us again in 2003. They are pictured again (below) with C. P. Lee taking the vocals. Cold Overture 2002
