I believe Squirm was the only one where the main sax lines didn't originate from Roi, but I thought Coffin added harmony and complimentary layers to some of the other tracks just to fill out the sound.
I remember Dave saying "thank God for Jeff" in relation to Squirm. I believe he said he came up with the middle eastern sax riff, from what Dave said when the album was released.
