[Ian Livingston]

Got that whole plate of shrimp thing going here, Alice. I just broke
down and purchased Thick as a Brick on cd. My old vinyl has been past
all hope for decades, already. That young Ian Anderson was quite a
fellow. Borrowing from classical, jazz, blues and rock'n'roll, not to
mention a dozen or so poetic and dramatic progenitors to create
something altogether ballsy and new. Of course, he is also supported
by a cast of first rate musical talents.

I hold the position that young Pynchon is at least as brilliant.
