[kj] Your counter attack, sir!/ BIg Paul

[Alexander Smith]

He didn't comment on the material on BTATS, but he did say his  
fondest memory of the band was circa that afore-mentioned  
performance. And as far as EXTREMITIES, he said he loved "Money is  
Not Our God" (as well he should've). He didn't comment specifically  
beyond that, but said that he did keep up with the band's activity  
(someone would invariably hand him a copy of each new album, which  
would sit for weeks on his desk unplayed until he could finally take  
it no more).
