KT: Well!! Last night I listened to "Cameleon" Herbie [Herbie Hancock: Chameleon, Head Hunters (Columbia/Legacy, 1973)], and still to this day it makes me shiver. After the breakdown, Harvey [Harvey Mason, Sr.: drummer] does a fill on the hats. Then the most incredible 4 bars ever ... It has been sampled a few times, but that is my ultimate Tune ... What is yours?
I will make this brief :-) Started flute at the age of nine. For 2 years I played in the National Childrens Wind Orchestra (in the West Midlands). Moved down to the rowdy south London. Got into a performing arts course (2 years) … Met a few people ... Met my best friend - Mr Grand piano!!! That was it!! My friend Kester, who was on the same course, had a studio in Kew. He introduced me to Jake Wherry..We jammed, and formed a likkle funk band! (as u do) called the Propheteers ... Then The Herbaliser was born … Kester had a studio next to the herbs, and one day I put my head in to say hello, and I got introduced to Alex Phountzi + Orin Walters. Orin had a flat in Richmond, and a studio. Things started and Bugz In The Attic was born. Met I.G Culture, and we both musically connected. Then 4hero ... Phil Asher ... Domu … Mark de Clive-Lowe … etc ... I could go on…

The group name Alphabet Soup is explained as follows:
The communicative rudiments of language starts with the alphabet. The alphabet is a set of letters and/or other characters written or otherwise (oral-tradition, etc.) arranged in a customary order to convey knowledge or inform. The "Soup" was our music. Together the compliment of both words (alphabet) and music rendered the EP: Sunny Day In Harlem.
Holden Caulfield is a fictional character created by J. D. Salinger. Holden is the teenage protagonist of Salinger's 1951 novel The Catcher in the Rye ; Holden also appears in some of Salinger's other literary works.
Physically, Holden is gangly and tall. He is also described as having several gray hairs on the right side of his head. These two qualities contribute to Caulfield's appearing to be older than his age, yet his mannerisms and behavior contradict that impression. One of Caulfield's most striking and quintessential qualities is his powerful revulsion for "phony" human qualities. Qualities such as narcissism, hypocrisy, and superficiality embody Holden's concept of phoniness; and, unfortunately, Holden is adept at realizing these qualities in other people. This serves to bolster Holden's cynicism and consequently contributes to his mistrust of other people. Interestingly, despite Holden's strong disdain for phony qualities, he exhibits some of the qualities that he abhors, thereby making him a somewhat tragic character.
Caulfield is the second of four children, with two brothers, D.B. and Allie, and one sister, Phoebe. (There is also a second sister, Viola, who is briefly mentioned in the short story "I'm Crazy," but is never referred to again.) Allie is deceased at the time of The Catcher in the Rye. Their parents are left unnamed in Salinger's works.
Born into a life of wealth and privilege, Caulfield looks down upon the elite world he occupies. He questions the values of his class and society and sometimes appears to oppose conventions merely for the sake of opposition. He is widely considered to be the template for the "angry young man" archetype.
Accordingly, my man "2-Liter" considers my acerbic critiques a "hate" of everything and my "can't fuck with me B!!!" dancing rants didn't/ don't exactly raise the bar thusly "2-Liter" has thereupon labeled me the consummate Holden Caulfield of the east-coast.
