The Tomorrow song was originally titled "Claramont Lake", no one is quite sure how the name got changed to Claremont Lake" on some reissues/compilations. Steve likes to tell how he met Frank Zappa in London, and the moment they were introduced, Frank said: "Wow, Steve from Tomorrow? Claramont lake is a great record, I really like that guitar solo!" Steve says it made him feel like maybe he'd really arrived, to be "liked" by no less a personage than FZ, already a big star when Steve was just breaking in.

Probably everyone knows, but it's a typical Japanese visual arts thing to build a scene with Fuji in the background in some interesting or fraught way

You can see the part to the right houses the wheelhouse and those angle bits are anchors. The cable runs from the other side of the building.

Ministry of Construction, aka Ministry of Concrete... there's a lot of brutal, soviet-looking architecture in Japan.

With photoshop who knows, RR. But painters would get Fuji in the background (whether by painting from a spot where it *was*, or by taking artistic license), thus adding gravitas, making a comment, ironizing, etc., because of all the meanings Fuji carries in Japan.

fwiw, "The current kanji for Mount Fuji, 富 and 士, mean "wealth" or "abundant" and "a man with a certain status" respectively. "

Were you thinking about Fuji-in-background art/culture baggage in taking it, or as you said using it for scale and orientation? Feel free to give your word or not :p

@tim: It's a hell of a nice composition, in any case. Fuji is kind of small, lurking o the horizon, not majestically looming per usual. So: you could say the diminished symbol of Fuji resonates with the mundane, decrepit, industrial structure to evoke the loss of tradition and cultural strength in Japan. Or: not.
