Excellent work, very interesting to read about how you recorded the song as well, everything sounds great!

I swear i commented on this. Send mustn`t been hit. This sounds major professional. I don`t know Captain Beefheart too much. Some stuff i don`t like but i like this. Excellent vocals Jim . The music is spot on everywhere. I can`t play piano worth a crap but i wanna learn one day. Excellent job on the music and mix 64!!

thought i had commented on this one.

one drunken night long ago i sent a pm to 64 guitars and also a separate pm to alfstone. saying "fancy doing one of my all time fave songs?" and guess what? i got to do it twice.

both versions are completely different and imho brilliant. for me getting to play with such meticulous and exacting musicians is a great pleasure especially considering how slapdash my own approach to music is.

i love this song, i love this place. not done anything for a few days, which is unusual for me, but been supping up life experiences that i am sure will result in some new songs. when i don't know cos right now "there's no enough time in the day"

thank's 64 and grazia alfredo.
