Notes and Comments

From: "john kitamura" <kato@atitech.ca>
  Here's another clue for you all... The guitar arpeggio opening to "Stuff Up The Cracks" is very similar to the opening of Johnny Guitar Watson's "Lonely Lonely Nights" (I think that is the title), which I heard on the "Three Hours Past Midnight" CD (on the Ace label). This arpeggio may be a JGW trademark, since three of the songs on that disc have similar intros.
 
If you decide to leave me, it's all over
If you decide to leave me, it's all over
I tried to make you happy
I gave you all my love
There's nothing left for me to do but cry

  The Watson song, a cover of Earl King, is entitled "Those Lonely Lonely Nights."
From: Charles Ulrich <ulrich@sfu.ca>
  The Mothers of Invention performed "Those Lonely Lonely Nights" in 1969. (It can be heard on tapes of 2/69 Miami, 2/23/69 (early) Toronto, 5/17/69 Detroit, and 5/19/69 Toronto, as well as 5/23/75 El Paso.)
