About The Song

From Steve Taylor Pre-concert Interview, David Wang, June 30th, 1996:

David Wang: ... On the Chagall Guevara album, "The Wrong George," is that actually a real conversation?

Steve Taylor: Yeah, right. Somebody called--Dave picked up the phone in his basement just as the machine went off upstairs, so it ended up recording the whole conversation.
