"I never thought Neuwirth would make a record. I thought he was too dangerous. I thought he was too dangerous to himself .... and to everyone else I've sat around the table many a late night passing guitars around, and when a guitar got to Neuwirth, he would start playing the best song any of us had ever heard. Someone would ask who wrote that one, and after a while, it would become clear that he had been making it up as he went along, and that he couldn't remember a note he had sung, not that he had really sung any notes. I just wanted to say that I think in many ways, he's the best pure songwriter of any of us." T-Bone Burnett Liner notes to 'Back To The Front' (1988)
