The instrument itself was one which Gavin Bryars obtained from Evan Parker via Evan's father-in-law, who had played it in a commercial Hungarian gypsy group. The instrument had languished in his garage for some time and Gavin bought it."

He may also have appeared on an lp released in 1973 or 74, World Within Worlds parts 4 & 5 (Island). The exact relationship between the World Within Worlds lps and Quantum is still somewhat vague, as are the recording, personnel and track details of the second lp.
