Without these documents, the best investigative reporting in the world could not have produced a book, and the secrets of CIA mind-control work would have remained buried forever, as the men who knew them had always intended. From the documentary base, I was able to expand my knowledge through interviews and readings in the behavioral sciences. Neverthe- less, the final result is not the whole story of the CIA's attack on the mind. Only a few insiders could have written that, and they choose to remain silent. I have done the best I can to make the book as accurate as possible, but I have been hampered by the refusal of most of the principal characters to be interviewed and by the CIA's destruction in 1973 of many of the key docu- ments.

Performances of Irish ballads remained popular with English audiences but the publication of Stanford’s song collection An Irish Idyll in Six Miniatures in 1901 by Boosey and Hawkes in London marks a shift to a different type of Irish song.

  • PRRP 021 – Peter Gabriel Manchester 1980 – Liner Notes
    Through The Wire With the release of his ground-breaking third solo album in May 1980, Peter Gabriel firmly began to establish his reputation as a highly innovative solo artist. In February of that year, before the release of the album, he embarked on a British tour, dubbed the „Tour Of China 1984‟, showcasing new material and a streamlined, more direct live sound. At The Apollo in Manchester, Gabriel and his band entered from the rear of the auditorium, arriving on stage to the menacing opening strains of “Intruder”. Alongside Tony Levin on bass and Larry Fast on keyboards was a surprising new recruit – guitarist John Ellis from punk outfit THE VIBRATORS. It was Ellis‟ raw, dry guitar, combined with Jerry Marotta‟s dominant, economical drumming, which gave Gabriel‟s new live sound much of its harder edge. This recording, from March 5th 1980, includes several rarely performed songs from Peter Gabriel‟s live repertoire at the time. “Milgram‟s 37”, given a lengthy explanatory introduction by Gabriel, wouldn‟t appear on an album until 1986‟s classic “So”, where it was renamed “We Do What We‟re Told”. The minimal “Lead A Normal Life” complements “Mother Of Violence” while “Bully For You” (co-written with Tom Robinson, who provided the lyrics for Gabriel‟s music) and the ebullient “I Go Swimming” both remain unreleased as studio recordings. “Games Without Frontiers” provided Gabriel with his second solo hit single (following the early success of “Solsbury Hill” in 1977) and it was during this song that he chose to leave the stage and venture into the audience to encourage a sing-along of the “Jeux Sans Frontières” chorus refrain.
