of Ken Haebich who plays bass and Jim Gailloreto who plays sax on "It's
not a sin".
"Comprising off-kilter, homemade pop to soothe bruised and emasculated hearts, "for the time being" has an undeniably ambitious scope. Tony Gudwien, the one-man multi-tracking maestro behind Heavy Duty Felt, crafted the entire record with his bare, blistering hands and deserves genuine praise for turning out an album so flush and full all by himself. Charming for its bittersweet orchestrations, Gudwien strikes an amiably confessional and deliberate tone throughout, tempering the crooked-grin sadness and honesty of his songs with a less gigantic Mercury Rev/Flaming Lips brand of vocal sweep and fried-out playfulness. The whole approach works in a way that might not cause jaws to drop, but will certainly endear."
