1st track on "Boil That Dust Speck."
That tune mystified me for years - I'm not quite sure I got it - and that was for a while. But now it is the shiniest gem under the the Keneally Sea, if not for the fact that it it so fucking twisted and bizarre, yet sublimely gorgeous all simultaneously. The outerspace vocal harmonies, along with the harmonic progression and some tabla shakin' your ass, too. It's also packed with humor, maybe even humour. Lovely backing guitars and especially keyboards, they even sound Yes-tacle prog nerd analogy for a while then morph into more of some Robert Wyatt Dondestan-era canvas..... and then comes Kiev's finest, Mr. Vladamir Horowitz on meth and gin. The beginning really made me think of Andy Partridge too, maybe intended or not, but the roller coaster takes the listener out of the amusement park fast. Ha, that sounds pretentious, but I like it anyway, dammit! Fucking brilliant tune!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I raise some goode' cheer to this most catchiest of songs that would be the perfect choice to use at a wedding when the cheesy DJ announces the wedding party and one-by-one they all come out dancing like total assholes. Imagine the wedding party coming out to this tune, but they ALL have old school Sleepytime Gorillla Museum donkey masks on. You would definitely want that on Shoulder cam color VHS tape at the absolute minimum. I think old Grandma Witherspoone at table 17 would shit 93 year-old cream corn into her "Grandma Diapers" at the minimum.. That just might win $10,000.
