Comment:

This was just gonna be sonic collage-type stuff, but I decided to push the instrumental "envelope." The title comes from Dylan's song, which closes side one when his smoke-charred lungs give out and he starts to cough, then tells the producer it was supposed to "fade at cough." The second side evolves from Woody Allen-type jazz to Spike Lee-type jazz. For DJ P, who is soon to leave Manhattan.
