Pulp existed for 12 years before we got famous. Now you could say that was just lack of imagination but it's some kind of quality isn't it? Tenacity. You could also say it was sloth.
Maybe a part of me recognized how right the improvising spirit of jazz is. Not the sounds but the freedom to work with musicians who work that way. It felt very natural to me but I think there's a way to do it without it being a jazz record.
