The lyrics are wrong in a few places, as is usually the case with the way the lyrics to this album are copied from site to site. However, as I know the lyrics, these are the absolute best on the album.
A true story follows. I'd been searching for this album since high school (1992 or so), when I saw the video for "Catch The Breeze." At the time I did get to buy the CD (1997), I was discovering that I wanted to possibly leave my wife for various reasons I won't discuss here. The disillusionment I was feeling seemed to be echoed in some of the songs, especially "Waves," the chorus of which inspired me to make my plans to leave her.
Years later, Halsted wrote in a Mojave 3 song called "Big Star Baby," this line: "Every woman I've ever loved has been some kind of fuck-up." Many other songs he has written have reminded me of my past relationships in different ways. I hope to shake his hand one day and tell him this. I know he'd appreciate it, even to hear it one more time--after all, lots of us could say the same.
