Mike, what do you think of this theory? Any truth to it? Kevin Davis wrote: Has it ever been discussed whether this song (perhaps specifically the noodling at the beginning) is a nod to Sonny Sharrock's free jazz supergroup of the same name?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Last_Ex ... _jazz_band) Sharrock died in 1994, so perhaps there is some relevance (though I think the song goes back to 1993). |

It perfectly warms me up for the album, and goes right into STBC. But I wouldn't listen to it by itself. Its a weird song, I see it more as an intro to set the tone. Eddie is good on it but for me there's just something weird about it that it only works for me if Im listening to the rest of the album after it. |

This song is one of the few where I think Dave A. really did it the best. On the album at least, don't really know about live. |

"Lives opened and trashed, look Ma watch me crash" is a brilliant lyric. |

Incredible that Ed would routinely nail the "Let my spirit, PAAAASS" line during live shows in 95'. Such a ridiculously hard singing part. |
