JJ_Amblin, Oct 13, 2003

Ever wondered about the origins of that absurdly long title? Well, being devotees of the ever-useful BBC Sounds Effects series of LPs, they pinched it from the tracklisting on the album "Science Fiction Sound Effects No.26" (BBC REC 420, as if youre interested). It refers to a bit of F/X wizardry by Elizabeth Parker heard in the cult TV series "Blakes 7". The Orb may have made this particular title their own, but "Machine Monster With A Black Sense Of Humour (Who Chases Our Heroes Around, Winking)" remains up for grabs.
