 In 2001 David released a third CD album called "Thorough Scrutiny". Most of the tracks were originally recorded in the early 1990s in various basement type studios. Some vocal, keyboard and lead guitar tracks were recorded in 2000. Taking a kind of Frank Zappa approach to the production, intertwining the songs with weird keyboard effects and strange events, most of which was fooling around in the studios while recording. It definately gives you a look into the different and very unusual minds of these very Talented musicians. The song "Fate of Pain" was used in a movie sound track called "Stupid People do Stupid Things" a Damien Gilbert production. The same song also appeared on many compilation CDs. Thorough Scrutiny also includes two remakes. "Follow Me" written by the late blues guitarist Rory Gallagher and a very cool live version of the song "Snortin Whiskey" by Pat Travers.
