In this track I would personally shine a spotlight on the amazing versatility, cleverness, clarity and cooperation of the drummer, percussionist and co-vocalizer, John Palumbo (who even plays a bit of clarinet on this one). Which of course is not meant to underestimate the bassology skills exemplified by John El-Manahi in this unmapped improvisational outing. I stand in my earlier nasal self to the microphone some hybrid Ken Nordine Alan Bishop or Dada Biafra reading one poem by Stephen Ellis and some lines I scribbled while on hold various times at my office-job of 1997, launching it with some half-baked ad-lib redaction of a book about Ives that El-Manahi was telling me about the night before and a reference to Charles Mingus only real-Mingus people will get. That other noise is probably the Moroccan rebab, some flutes and maybe I ruffle through my papers looking for the serpent-like beauty coiled in living syntax. Dos espressos, in two separate cups, por favor. Album coming soon.  https://orphansoundsystem.bandcamp.com/releases
