recorded at East McDowell Rd Scottsdale AZ in Tara Curtis's(lady in red on alum cover) apartment
near the Milk Depot at the border of the Pima Indian Lands.
Across the street was the motorola government division now owned by General Dynamics.
this one is about a lot of things
Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity thought experiments (on the train)the drug war, crystal meth, marijuana , religion(full gospel church is in coeburn VA thus the connection to ky bluegrass salt creek,
thus the title salt river shard castles is in reference to the shards or crystal and the ones having anything to do with such things in their castles around the salt river area of arizona
and of course the 808 and 303 acid section of the song is actually bluegrass acid in that the melody of the 303 is from the famous bluegrass song SALT CREEK
this song was recorded in 1999 but nowadays you could allude the "full gospel area to bath salts and the we are on the train line to the methylamine heist on the tv show breaking bad performed by Walter White (Heisenburg) and his train robbing crew. Which further strengthens the quantum connections that could be made about this futuristic fusion of hillbilly electronica.
lyrics
you know
we're on the train
everybody else is playin the game
you know
when it's over
we'll grow some grass
and paint the mower
..
drownin' in a puddle of full gospel boogie
