This album came from a jam session that Harry, Jason, and Jimmy had on Friday, May 22, 1998 in Jimmy's room which at the time was still called Exit 23 Studio. This was unofficially known as "Isthmus Jam 4".
As soon as the half-day jam session was over, it was realized this was going to be a 2-album set. After PDF Volume 1 was released to great success, it was doubtful that a second album could contain such great songs as the first. But it did. Both albums have a number of great songs on it.
Whereas PDF Volume 1 contained the Isthmus tradition of "Wicked Game", this album had another cover, "Sunshine of Your Love". Harry taught it to Jimmy and Jason that day, that's why this version sounds a little rough.
This album also had the same last track as PDF Volume 1, "Outter Gossamer Ring" (the misspelling of 'outter' was realized after PDF Volume 1 was released but was kept the same for this album). It was a good track to end an album with.
