I thought that was a likely explanation for an otherwise very un-Oily bit of music. It definitely wasn't toward my tastes, and I would have been completely traumatized if it had turned up on an Oils recording. Knowing for sure it was a father-son collaboration helps - all can be forgiven! In fact, it sounds like something my sons would like. In truth, I was fearing that our rabbinic-looking hero had been left alone for too long in the studio with a midi-sampler (aka devil's sex toy) and I do hate it when that happens to perfectly good guitarists. On the positive side, did you catch the little bird noises? Reminded me a bit of Crocodile Cries, but with that cloying techno-mantra vibe...sorry, didn't mean to froth. BTW Does anyone know how old Jim's son is? CraigPS: Stop the flaming! Amen! In the name of all that's good and decent in Oils music, let's not start another bloody American Civil War. Remember, bruce in calgary
