about

This was one of my first extended rants in which I indulged a taste for improvisatory music with poetic recitation. This particular rant explores an alienation theme that would re-occur in our work time and time again, whether it was the workplace, society, school, the home, or romantic entanglements both successful and failed. The invoking of "mania" presages the Madness compilations, where we specifically called for such. This track was previously released on the 1983 cassette "Sunday Monday Or Always" and was credited to the band "Religious Services". It turned out that three of us participating in the jam session, myself (Evan Cantor), Ed Fowler and Dena Zocher were all ordained ministers in the Universal Life Church of Modesto, California, Incorporated, hence the band name for that day.

There are those amongst us!
