In the beginning of a segment called "Words from John Kerry" they introed and ended the clip with Steve's piano part in the beginning of MCU. It made my night.

()*&&%^)( IT! I can't believe that you beat me to posting this.

But what's the connection between Kerry and Man Called Uncle?

I dont know. What did Kerry say in the skit? I got so excited I didnt even pay attention to what he said.

They've used EC before. I've heard a snippet of "Clown Strike" played in between Biff Henderson's man-on-the-street segments.

Paul has an ear for the outstanding, so it doesn't surprise me that he samples Steve. And Will Lee, a huge talent, has been on record as a reverent fan of Elvis Costello and the Attractions. I am certain that he has performed sessions with Pete Thomas, but I couldn't tell you who it was in support of.

Anyone know?

Lastnight when I heard this I jumped up (I was trying to sleep- couldnt do it until around 5:00am).

It was great!
