I didn't realize he had played with Towner... He IS the John Mayall of 
wiggly 
guitar players. I like that idea. Someone should tell Jan that!

I believe the disc is "It's ok to listen to the *grey* voice". It's been 
awhile,
but this thread has me thinking about digging that out of my vinyl 
collection. 
(That means I'd have to go find the turntable as well.) It really is true 
that 
Torn had his voice quite well established at that point.
