I can't help with your questions but I can tell you about the song
"Another Day".  Another Day was written (and orginally performed) by Roy
Harper. Roy has made guest appearances on at least one of Kates albums,
and she has indeed appeared on several of Roy's.

If you are also a Led Zeppelin or Pink Floyd fan you'll have come
across Roy before as their paths often cross - If not, you may like to
treat yourself to a Roy Harper recording one day (if you can find one).

I think (and I'm probably wrong) that Kate and Peter performed Another
Day on UK television (chat?) show once.  I also believe that it was
recorded for a possible single release but the idea was latter shelved.
