GS: We thought it was important to try to work on some new ideas. We were going after a basic impressionistic thing here. I remember having a fairly set order for what I did, but no set duration.
HS: At the time we played the 'Elmers' my mind wasn't nearly as set on what I wanted to do as Greg's seems to have been. At the beginning I was basically responding to what Greg was playing, until I bring in some melodic patterns. From that point on, I think the counterpoint bears some of the seeds of the version of "Approaching Readiness" that we recorded a year later (released on "The Cram And Stuff Method"). However, this version of "Elmer" has a very relaxed, almost deliberate feel to it, as opposed to "Approaching's" frenetic, chaotic energy.
