mike bott, Sunday, 1 February 2004 05:02 (twenty years ago) link

Nate - that's actually a clavinet on "Trampled Under Foot". Not trying to be pedantic about it -- the whole cool thing about the song is that basically they were inspired by Stevie's "Superstition"!

Broheems (diamond), Sunday, 1 February 2004 05:10 (twenty years ago) link
