- Now I say:
- What the hell are you talking about?
- A- Raymond Watts is Pig. Pig has no song named Powerhouse.
- B- The Garage Monsters/Steroid Maximus did Powerhouse. This was Jim Thirlwell
- by himself, with artistic help/inspiration by the Pizz (the cover/disc
- artist). Just Jim and his Macintosh. No Pigs. No Watts.
- C- Powerhouse is not a Jim Thirlwell original. It's a tune by Raymond Scott,
- featured in many of the Warner Brothers cartoons. It's old.
