It's odd that he has his childhood picture in the liner notes with the rest of the band but they totally overlooked actually crediting him as playing piano on the record.

    my money is on Tom Tomorrow being that 6th childhood photo. (the upper left one). think about it: he's the trumped up one, and the real marquee contributor to this lp art-wise.

    but I'm with you on the possibility of a O'Brien playing oversite. I thought the same thing.
  • Often, a producer will play instruments on an album and not take credit. It's just part of the job of a good producer. A tambourine credit doesn't do much for the ego when you've got a producer credit.

    yeah but he didn't play tambourine, he played piano.

    Boom's sorry ass always got credited.

    Again, it's part of the job. I think he might have played cowbell on a track too. :)
