And here it is. I think more people have asked me when there was going to be a recording of Cargo publicly available than any other Love Button song I ever wrote. This is definitely a rough, unfinished version, though; there are still a few mistakes and I’m not totally thrilled with the mix. Nevertheless, it’s decent enough to show to company.
I’ve included a commentary track as well, since I think the background information for this song is extremely interesting. The song is about the beliefs of several groups of indigenous people from New Guinea, and a person dying of a peculiar disease that’s only transmissable by cannibalism. As always, any factual inaccuracies fall under the heading of “artistic license”, and as such are immune from prosecution. Enjoy!
