During the spring of 2006, Jakko and Sid Smith, the author of 'In the Court of King Crimson', held a series of telephone conversations about the developing new album.

Jakko has mixed these conversations with samples of music.

The fourth of these conversations is about one of Jakko's most personal songs, 'When we go home'.

The interview starts with a discussion of the important role that Robert Fripp played in the development of the song, and then Jakko reminisces about his mother Camille Jakszyk, who died of Alzheimer's disease.
