I recently picked up the album Rockit, and I was wondering about the vocals on it. Does anyone know if Chuck had vocal acompaniment or are the harmonies created by a pedal?

Also, did Chuck write the poem, This Too Shall Pass Away? (or whatever it's called). Wow, I never knew this aspect of his music--amazing!

I think he just sang over the original track to 'double' the vocal. But that's just a guess.
I don't care for that method myself, and the best track on there (Wuden't Me) thankfully hasn't got the overdubs.
That said, I do like Rockit.

Time for a follow up I reckon! Come on Chuck!
