It was John of Patmos, not John the Baptist, that wrote the Book of Revelations. There is some debate about another author as well whose work got attributed to John of Patmos...
& No.
That part in Turquoise Boy goes into a noisefest straight outta Mote; the title is taken from a book about Navajos.
Sleepin' Around sounds lifted from VU's Foggy Notion.
I would be surprised if Sonic Youth doesn't play Neil Young's Bridge School Benefit with this material. Much of it comes off as written by Thurston on an acoustic as has been the case for the last few records & a good bit of the mostly straight-forward end product seems ideally suited to be adapted to acoustic guitars. Thurston's hand can be felt more than ever. The band will finally be able to play in Mountain View & not seem musically challenged.
