Take a healthy dose of The Beatles, Frank Zappa, Steely Dan, The Firesign Theatre, Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder, Captain Beefheart, Thelonious Monk, Joni Mitchell, Martin Mull, Brian Wilson, Elton John, Billy Joel, Randy Newman, XTC, Carl Stalling and Stravinsky and filter it through an obscure suburban hermit musician from Long Island, NY and this is what it will sound like. The whole oeuvre is a deep musical puzzle / diary, thirty five years in the making. Why should you care? Who knows? But if the curiousness in you should want to take a trip down this musical rabbit hole you may find that the songs and instrumentals trigger memories you probably didn't even know you had. Marvels await.
