I'm listening to the song 'Quicksilver" from the Future Clouds
cd just now -- this one is very John Lennon/Cotton Mather'ish.
Though for some reason it most reminds me of "Long, Long, Long",
which might be George Harrison's best song. Maybe something in
the name Harrision.
Thank you Jennifer for alerting us.
