Everything on those tapes is on the album in the order it was recorded. We will be back next week to breakdown the album, analyzing its meaning and overall effectiveness (or lack thereof).

We will also discuss various ideas about the purpose and meaning of art, the craft of songwriting and the cognitive science of creativity.
