"Tookish" is inspired by the Took family in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. "As they sang the hobbit felt the love of beautiful things made by hands and by cunning and by magic moving through him...Then something Tookish woke up inside him, and he wished to go see the great mountains, and hear the pine-trees and the waterfalls, and explore the caves...." The tune has a challenging harmonic structure, which John's solo negotiates with playful grace.
