I Fell Into a Burning Ringworm of Fire

Thanks to a tip from Phil Ford, I am making my way through the pre-Astral Weeks contractual obligation album by Van Morrison.

He must have been pissed off. It sounds like he just picked up the guitar before "writing" the songs and didn't bother to tune it.

The high point, so far, is "Ringworm."

Pissed off, yes, but also having a pretty good time.

I'm very sorry but I have to tell you that Zappa's got that covered. But it makes me wonder whether there's ever been a contractually obligated ringtone ...
