I remember seeing Skafish in the early 80s on that IRS TV show with Peter Zaremba from the Fleshtones as host. What was the name of that show? I'm amazed that you remembered him. I can't remember what he sounded like but his music must be great for you to go to all that trouble. Was that show called "The Cutting Edge"? And re: Skafish, I hooked up with him after HE found ME, after hearing that I was the man for the job (through other professional colleagues). I remembered him from the movie "Urgh a Music War", but I can't say I was a huge fan (though I do like his stuff more now after hearing so much of it). Remember that this sort of thing is my job, so 'all of this trouble' is being compensated for via a check (a check that is getting me to Hukilau!). :) That said, I have worked with so many shitty rappers and talentless garage rock bands, that on the occasions when I get to work with some real talent, it is a blessing and a pleasure. Skafish is actually a really talented guy, so this big project has been fun.
