LET IT LIE

Mike's mother would be home soon, and we could see from the small window on the cassette that there was not much room left on side A for recording. So we'd do one more.

And a manic one it was. It starts off propulsive and then falls off a precipice-- you can hear it twisting in midair, with only a slight updraft of shambles to keep it from hitting the ground.

Then at 1:45, there's a parachute. The whole thing gies and haws in the wind a little, and damn if it doesn't land with force to buckle but not break our knees.

Listen for: my most heartfelt yelp of satisfaction at the very end...
