Steam & Electric

Our old friend Arras, no longer with us, once started a musical happening that lasted for months
in a house he had taken over from an anthropologist off to Perú
everybody who dropped in joined in the fun, labelled "Steam & Electric"—hence.

Naturally, when we saw (and smelled, don't forget the godawful smell) steam literally pouring up from the earth and a giant electricity power plant cleverly making use of that free source, we were reminded of Arras and his band. He had endless hours of recordings of it all, always kept the ReVox running, with some pretty interesting results.
That same anthropologist used to pronounce the name of the country as P E: ry (that's in International Phonetic Alphabet mode): emphasis on the first syllable, never mind the accent, and the u not as in room but as in Nürnberg or München.
Makes one wonder, as so often, about anthropologists.

Here is where I realized that the word Hole no doubt is related to Hell
like in the German Hölle. Talk about hell-holes!
