Overalls in the recording studio? 
They were really great for the task, believe it or not.  Where else except in all those pockets was I going to put my hammers when I wasn’t playing or the tuning wrench or???? There was a problem, though, now that I think about it.  I kept recording this obnoxious little squeak – where in the world was it coming from?  Even Tom Smith, the engineer couldn’t find it.  It wouldn’t always be there – I started searching for mice!  Finely I started hearing it over and over when I would play an arpeggio – every time I would play an arpeggio – every time I would lean towards the instrument – every time the metal buckle on the strap of the overalls would rotate just the right way!!!
