00:06 Rada the interpreter, Anatoli Kuular, Kongar-ol Ondar, an unidentified oriental man, Kaigal-ool Khovalyg and FZ on the sofa, with Terry Bozzio, another girl, and Motorhead standing on the back. The Tuvans are practising their singing while hearing the Chieftains. 01:47 In the studio. From left to right: Seán Keane (fiddle), Martin Fay (fiddle), Matt Molloy (flute), Anatoli Kuular, Kongar-ol Ondar, Kaigal-ool Khovalyg, Paddy Moloney (pipe), Derek Bell (harp), Kevin Conneff (bodhrán), practising the same song, while Dave Dondorf and Spence Chrislu place the microphones. Paddy Moloney discusses with FZ what they're going to do. Then they do two complete takes of the song (05:24-07:58 and 09:18-11:36). 11:45 Lunch break. The Tuvans, The Chieftains, Motorhead, Terry Bozzio, Gail and some other people eat some salad and rolls. 14:45 Back in the studio. Moon, Dweezil, Terry Bozzio, Gail, FZ, Ahmet, Derek Bell and some other people attend while the unseen musicians tune up. Terry Bozzio plays percussion along with the music played off camera (the violin sounds like L. Shankar). On a different shot we can see Kevin Conneff, Seán Keane, Martin Fay, Matt Molloy, Johnny Guitar Watson, Kongar-ol Ondar, Paddy Moloney, Matt Groening and some other people attending the same performance while Steve Dondorf and Spence Chrislu place microphones. The actual musicians playing are hardly seen until the piece is finished. Mike Keneally brings an acoustic guitar to Johnny Guitar Watson. Dweezil takes an electric guitar to FZ. The three Tuvans start playing and singing "The Song Of The Caravan Drovers" ("Ching Söörtükchülerining Yryzy") accompanied by Paddy Moloney, L. Shankar, Terry Bozzio, Johnny Guitar Watson, Alain Johannes, Natasha Shneider and maybe more people. After the piece is done, FZ asks Kaigal-ool to sing with the low voice again. 30:33 Spencer Chrislu, Dave Dondorf and Ahmet in the control room while everybody in the studio is preparing to leave. 35:01 Back in the sofa, with the help of the interpreter and Ralph Leighton, FZ interviews the Tuvans about Tuva's religion and the origins of throat singing with Matt Groening, Motorhead and some other people attending. Kaigal-ool sings a short solo piece. FZ is interested in the lyrics as he thinks he heard them singing "MOO-AHH!" FZ takes them to a better sounding room.
