Massive Attack - "100th Window" Era Interview Taken From Rare Promo Disc

Подробнее о видео

This is a audio recording of an interview between 3D and a journalist named Sally Stratton that was recorded in December 2002, where she quizzes 3D about the then upcoming release of 100th Window. The journalist's voice does not feature on the promo CD; it is just 3D answering the questions, she presumably just asked him. This is the first time the audio from this interview CD has been made available on the internet.
