Note: This CD was not released as a separate album.
"Just For The Curious" is a CD that was included with the book of the same name and features the soundtrack from Allans instructional video from 1992. The album is not available separately or on streaming services. The band is Chad, Skuli and Steve, and they play some great music! “Proto Cosmos” was a live staple, and this version is in many ways as good as the original. Even Allan’s chordal demonstrations are sometimes enjoyable on their own as music. Allan was not pleased with the mix of these recordings. Due to an engineering mishap, the guitars and the drums were recorded on the same tracks in the studio, so Allan resorted to just leaving those tracks as they were when mixing the album.

CH: You were less than pleased with the REH video. Why were you less than pleased with the REH video, and the new book, "Just For The Curious"?

AH: So I had to leave everything exactly the way it was. I couldn’t put echo on the guitar without putting echo on the drums. I couldn’t make the guitar brighter without making the drums brighter. It was a complete, total disaster. That’s why. So in answer to that, that seems to happen to me quite a lot, so, I’m really sorry that I did it. But, it’s out there. I’ll never do another one. [leans in to microphone] Never.
