Notes on the Tracks

With its moaning saxophone and infectious beat, the marvelous instrumental that starts the album, "Wolf Call" would feel right at home on the Born Bad Series. As might be expected, "Sorry Charlie" is a take-off on the long-running series of Charlie the Tuna commercials for StarKist Tuna, complete with faux British accents.
