Rarity Rating: 4/5 (Rare)

Packaging: Slimline Cardboard Sleeve

Notes: This is a audio recording of an interview between 3D, Daddy G and Mushroom and a unnamed journalist that was recorded in March 1998, concerned mainly about the then upcoming release of Mezzanine. The journalist's voice does not feature on the CD; it is just Massive Attack answering the questions. There is a tracklisting discrepancy between what is printed and what questions are answered on the CD. For track 14, the question 'This is Liz Frazer from the Cocteau Twins?' is printed but the following printed question is answered. This is continued until track 34, where there is an unknown question answered. Listen to the entire interview on YouTube.
