Yes, it's
a cat.
I was listening to this very album via the
broadcast as I left work today, and it planted such a huge grin on my face.
Windy and Davin own a record store in Michigan, and they have a very sweet old cat named Urchin who purrs at the drop of a hat.
So, like any adult children with toys would do, they attach a pair of microphones to sweet old Urchin and set him off on his merry purring way.
I don't know exactly what he did, but let me guess.
He purred for a while, then went and ate some food, purringly.
Then he rolled around and moved the microphones around while he purred.
Later, he licked himself for a few moments, purring, and then stopped licking and purred some more.
At some point he was sitting (and purring) next to an ornamental fountain of some sort, or maybe a dehumidifier.
Not sure... we'll have to wait until the video-compliant reissue.
But in the meanwhile take my word for it; the listening experience is an absolute treasure.
Stay tuned, because I have absolutely no idea where to suggest that you should look for a copy.
