Comment
Excerpt from Adventures in Hi-Fi by Rob Jovanovic and Tim Abbott.
"On 9 November, the group were on the other side of the country in San Francisco for a one-day trial recording session with Elliot Mazer, known for his production work with Neil Young. They recorded a staggering twenty-three songs in that one day at Rhythmic Studios, many showing off their, sometimes hidden, humor. For a ridiculous version of “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” Michael sang at the top of his voice and Mike and Bill sang the “Wimowehs”. Other oddities included “Cushy Tush”, a mock commercial for an invented brand of toilet tissue (“Your family deserves the best in asswipe!”), and “Walter’s Theme”, an ad for Walter’s Bar-B-Q, a regular Athens haunt of the band, especially Peter. The rest of the material recorded was mostly newer compositions that were definites for the next album (“Letter Never Sent”, “Camera” and “Second Guessing”) along with some older songs (“Just A Touch”, “All The Right Friends” and “Pretty Persuasion”) which had yet to take their place on a commercial release. The band enjoyed working with Mazer and were more than happy with his results, though they still wanted to work with Mitch Easter and Don Dixon. To make a compromise, they invited him to work with Mitch and Don for the next album, though later everyone agreed that having three producers might complicate things, so the original pair were once again booked for the new album."
