Yes, that’s Cassandra Peterson (Elvira, Mistress of the Dark), and yes, those are her real tits. Okay. Now that that’s out of the way, how about that sour whiskey music? This album gets better with every listen. On this listen, I just lay back on the sofa, closed my eyes, and listened, which isn’t something I often do with music. But I just felt like this one needed that treatment on this cool, rainy afternoon. Small Change seems to me to be a track by track play of a piano player working at a blues bar who likes to partake of the firewater along with the customers, so by the end of Side A, he’s had one too many, and he has to blame it on the piano. Apparently this is a common occurrence, though, because he alludes to his bad liver later on. But everything will be all right, because his shift is just about to come to an end, and he’s looking forward to getting off work and going home to see his girl.
