      They knew cause Jimmy was already not showing up for sessions because of his dope habit, and Iha and Darcy had broken up, so you have a bit of a Fleetwood Mac "Rumors" vibe there. Also Darcy had begun to enjoy her coke. So I think they laughed because they could feel the vibe.

      As the Soma solo weeps like a dying angel who just became a demon before death, making it lost to the abyss.. And laments it's existance, wishing it had never been born, as the only thing left for its soul is the perpetual, scorching fires of HELL.
      That's what it sounds like to me anyways haha...

      Same part where he got two subpar players rich and famous while he did most of the work. Jimmy was disappearing for days strung out on dope so that was their way of getting back at him. But yeah, he is the only other worthy member. Darcy and Iha are window dressing and they got a free ride. Poor babies.

    Take track 1 and record a four count click right after a huge start to a part, flip tape over and you have that click on track 24. Press record on track 23 and after the the four count from track 24, smash a cymbal. Flip tape over and now you have reverse cymbal hit leading into the part on track two.

      So far it's been 26 years. Why did you have it sealed for at least 15 years? How did you listen to it? Did you buy two copies? One to listen to and the other to keep sealed? A fan would have played it immediately, I suspect. I'm sure you have a reasonable explanation behind bragging about a record you bought with no intention of listening to it. I'm just curious as to what that explanation is.
