Steve Hackett About Supper's Ready "This One Is Often Referred To By Fans As Their Favourite Progressive Track Of All Time... This Version Includes Several Vocalists To Add To The Varying Texture Of All The Elements. It Begins With A Soulfulness In Mikael Akerfeldt's Presentation Followed By A Sweetness In Simon Collins' Voice And The Exuberance Of Conrad Keeley. I Aimed To Pull Off The English Pastiche Aspect Of Willow Farm With Its Array Of Characters In A Kind Of Teddy Bears Picnic Meets I Am The Walrus. The Whole Thing Finally Opens Up Into Its Epic Ending With The Warm And Expansive Vocal Of Francis Dunnery. I Played Extra Guitar Parts Which Aren't On The Original In Both The Organ Section And On The End To Give It More Colour."
