Intro explaining The Sylvia Sessions
Anyone (aka Sylvia) - "The Sylvia Sessions"Who would have thought that we would have worked with these brilliant minds almost 30 years ago when they were just kids! Let alone still having a working analog master tape from 1993 to pull from!! So when Riz recently called us checking to see if we could salvage the tracks, we had to answer... "Hell Yes!" The rest will be history.

Remixed by Riz at TogethermenT Records from PMR Mater Tapes to digital 2022... Enjoy!

Rest in peace Sean Murphy and Taylor Hawkins!
