Daisy: We must've written eight or nine songs the first couple weeks. I would have an idea, and then he'd flesh it out, or he would come up with a riff, and I'd come up with a melody line.

Billy: When you're making an album, any album, it's an intimate thing. I mean, it has to be.

Daisy: Which isn't to say we didn't... fight.

Billy: Oh, we were fighting constantly. (chuckles)

Warren: For a month it was like that. We'd be, we'd be in the studio, you know, recording all the arrangements, and they'd be... who knows where, doing God knows what.

Eddie: Every day, they'd come in with something new.

Karen: I mean, great fսcking songs.

Eddie: And every night, they'd come in giggling like two little schoolgirls.

interviewer: Did it concern you?

Graham: Not really. Not yet, anyway. I mean... like, whatever they were doing... it was working.

Lata: The days I visited the band at the recording studio... I think I was more concerned that Camila wasn't there. The whole reason the band was The Six was because of Camila, i think just not seeing her recording or taking photos while everything happened was an anomaly. I think it's one of the reasons I was rarely there

Interviewer: What was the other reason?

Lata: [hesitates] You have to remember this was the 70s, so hanging out with rock stars meant there was no taboos on drugs. It was almost encouraged and after a while... you either give in or become completely done with it all 



November quickly turned into the new year. During the days of recording the band would always go even if they came back home late with hours in their day waiting for Billy and Daisy to join them. Once Lata was finished with her semester she had more time to visit the band 

On this specific day Lata had visited only to learn that it was Warren's turn in the booth. Lata was accustomed to their rockstar life to an extent - it was still jarring having total strangers act like they've known the band for ages and have them snort cocaine.
