Comments

FZ (interviewed by Frank Kofsky):

"Son of Suzy Creamcheese" took a year to learn how to play. Can you tell why? The time, the time—it's fantastic. It's four bars of 4/4, one bar 8/8, one bar of 9/8—OK? And then it goes 8/8, 9/8, 8/8, 9/8, 8/8, 9/8, then it goes 8/8, 4/8, 5/8, 6/8, and back into 4/4 again. To get it together now, we just toss it off and it becomes a flop.
