So, I'm often asked, "Who's this badass chick in this song?"
Well..., along my journey I have met many..., but I'll only admit that the one walking the cheetah on a black velvet leash is Tallulah Bankhead.

Compass Lost

This is an amalgam of all the street hustlers I've met in my life. I've bartered with some, traded with others, been robbed by a few. Some...,
I took home. The worst gave me the best..., directions, to the Stables Bar in Kansas City. Still miss Shelly and the gang!

Here We Come Now

My one talisman; a small scrap of paper that read..., "Larry Aquaviva said, ‘Rock It, Play It Like You Mean It Man!'" This is live take, no overdubs.

It's unlikely partner Veronica Blue was recorded in the same day - back to back.

You know when you put your hands under water that is way hotter than you thought..., you snatch your hands away, but the burn doesn't stop?

Veronica Blue is also a beautiful flower.
