We know that a lot of people have a tremendous emotional connection with your 1995 album , Relish , which includes some of your own numbers like “ St . Teresa ,” other songs like “ One of Us ,” and even a Dylan song in “ Man With the Long Black Coat .” Did you have a feeling when you were recording that album back in the 90s that it was going to be as successful as it has gone on to become or that it would have such longevity ?
I don ’ t think I had a lot of expectations about how well the record would do when we were in the middle of making it . I just wanted to do something that I thought was good and that I thought was interesting . We were just trying to satisfy ourselves — the guys I was working on the record with — Eric Bazilian and Rob Hyman and Rick Chertoff and a few other guys — we were just trying to make ourselves proud of it . So that was my point of view ,
