Beck's maternal grandfather Alfred "Al" Hansen was an avant garde artist who was a friend of Yoko Ono and John Cage. He was also a frequent visitor to The Factory, Andy Warhol's studio in New York. His death in June 1995 had a profound effect on Beck, who penned this song as a tribute to the man and his art.
