Notes: “Here’s the story Junior told about the origin of the name: Junior’s mother used to play the concertina in the back yard when the weather was fine. There was a stream in the field behind the house and the otters would come out of the stream when they heard the music and lie basking as if they were listening to it. Perhaps they were!”   –Quoted from a comment on The Session.
