Nicely conceptualised there, Rev D. I love all things Tim, but no one ever did The Dophins better than Fred. That low, mournful gravely voice. Amazing.

Hey, digging the show. Busy, busy here. I saw Malcolm Mooney and a bunch of great NYC musicians play this song at Union Pool a few years ago and it was one of the best shows of my life. They performed all Can songs. I should dig around and see if that show was recorded...

But also how about a 'closer' vibe like a pygme water slapping version?

And as I said 'closer' I'm now imaging a JD/Hannett inspired version.
