Of playing live and the song “Wingo Lamo” guitarist Andy Kessler offers this:
“‘Wingo…’ was always one of my favorites to play live. And then there’s the thing about how I’d misheard Mia’s lyrics to the chorus as, ‘Just like my father told me…” The actual line is, ‘Immobilized by the torment…” But I truly wondered what it was her father told her. And to this day I still do. I always loved it when she changed the chorus and gave me a look and a laugh.”
