Insight from Mr. Dolphy via: Mr Hutcherson: "Music is like the wind. You dont know where it came from, and you dont know were it went. You cant control it. All you can do is GET INSIDE THE SPHERE OF IT and be swept away."

Only once in a millennium does the group play. But it had to happen. Their friends back in the day said their music was like a luminescent jelly fish in a sea of dark murk. But few outside of several select basements ever saw the band actually perform.
