Win! Instantly! (CD/LP/cass)
SST 243: released 1989

The Maximum Electric Piano set-up was as follows: Yamaha electric baby-grand piano w/strings and pick-ups; Electro-Harmonix 16 second digital delay; Big Muff Fuzz Tone; Ibanez echo unit; various prepared piano tools, voice. This set-up allowed the artist to become a Òone-man bandÓ by setting up elaborate bass or rhythmic loops and playing over them, then layering onto those loops, or completely shifting the looping unit so it became a delay in the middle of the piece. He toured as a solo performer, with Russ Smith doing sound and treatments to the vocals and piano.
