The name thing is another tricky issue, because it started off as Loose Fingers, my little brothers made up this whole Loose Fingers thing. It goes back to my tendency to grab an instrument and start faking like I knew how to play it, get on the piano and fake like I’m playing something, so I would always move my fingers fast and they started saying this “loose fingers” thing. And then when I put a record out and that’s what I ended up using for the artist name, because I didn’t know what the response was going to this stuff – it’s off the wall – and I didn’t know anything about the music business other than I hear records and I buy them, that’s pretty much the extent of what I knew. And that’s why I used that name, as like a safety net. If it turned out to be a total embarrassment, I can actually hide and say I don’t know who that Loose Fingers is. And it was modified to Mr. Fingers within one release, really. And then modified to Fingers Inc. when I teamed up with Robert.

"Introduction" is one of my fave ever albums. To my ears there's a big difference between the jazz playing / textures on that and what I heard on some of this album.Acid Hose (Capitaine Jay Vee)Posted: 17 April 2018 at 12:30:21

I'm pretty ambivalent about the back to love album, but it contains my favourite track of his, Sweet Wine, which is pure magic

pt. 2 came out six months ago and I never heard a thing about it! the first one was so incredible I hadn't even imagined a sequel, just sorta read the pt. 1 as a playful ellipsis.

I was kind of disappointed in pt 2
