There isn't any obvious reason for this to have been recorded other than my sister Laura and I must have been bored beyond all recognition. She was in the process of earning her Economics degree (boring) from Stony Brook University when it became apparent that it was important to recognize the circumstances on page 396. This phrase was right out of her Economics book.

The music :
I sat down and played a drum track off the top of my head. Like many times before, I had no idea what I was going to do. I picked up my harmonica (a real one) which I found in eighth grade and still can't properly play and laid down a simple inhaling / exhaling melody. I then added some clarinet parts which I can still play and read and finally a sax part. I cannot play sax. ("Scrapamingus" foreshadow?) When this piece was remixed in 1991, I added a low demented Emax sound to smooth out the ending. The Emax I can play. NO PROBLEM.

IT IS IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE THE CIRCUMSTANCES - PAGE 396

It is important to recognize the circumstance - page three, nine, six.
It is important to recognize the circumstance - page three, nine, six.
Page three, nine, six.
It is important to recognize the circumstance - page three, nine, six.
It is important to recognize the circumstance - page three, nine, six.
It is important to recognize the circumstance
It is important to recognize the circumstance
It is important as baking some bagels!
Page three, ninety, six?
