[edit] Trivia/Info

  • From tmbg.com, "This is a highly rocking track which really spotlights an extraordinary rhythm section. This is the very first recording we did with Dan Hickey and probably the last we did with bass legend Graham Maby (the mega-bass power behind nu-waver Joe Jackson) before he got scooped away by Natalie Merchant. It was also one of the first sessions we did at Coyote Studio, and there was a very fun and easy vibe around this session."
  • Ruy López was a Spanish priest from the sixteenth century (who did, indeed, write a book about chess).
