<< The RHCP have a song that sounds like a tron song...and in 3/4, to boot.
I'd tell you what the title is, but I still don't know, because the radio
stations here are 'too cool to back-announce'. >>

"breaking the girl"? it's a real 'tron. there's a documentary video of the
making of the "blood sugar sex magik" album that clearly, though briefly,
shows a 400. ("funky monks", it's called, this video). the 'tron performance
on this song (and "sir psycho sexy" on the same album, more prominently if
anything) is credited to one brenden o'brien (sic), whose name is spelt more
conventionally for his credit as engineer. what a remarkable collection of
body-paintings this band has.
so- anyone know whose 400 it was?
