you know G-men was poduced by John Cale of the Velvet Underground. They didn't get along. But still your first album produced by John Cale. Cool as fuck.

John Cale, yes I know. I read an article somewhere that commented on how amazing it was that he seemed to be in just the right place at just the right time to produce so many important figures in music over the years. His solo stuff doesn't do anything for me, but yeah, gotta give him some credit for production. Image

Little Matchstick Owen yeah that's another great track from that album. We should meet up soon again, Ooh. Maybe we can get Stu in on the act, eh? I mentioned you to him not too long ago, he said he'd be up for going out.

Just read an article about Scottish delicacy Haggis. I'm a vegetarian so I can't imagine eating sheep heart/lungs/liver, but it was an interesting article anyway.

Johnny Marr & The Healers comes out Feb. 4. That's Tuesday. I'm making a special trip to the record shop despite the fact that Tuesdays I'm always very sleep deprived due to my crazy schedule. You don't have to be a Smiths fan to care...what I've heard from it sounds like Charlatans/Oasis...
