Two different styles complementing each other, completing a circle\u2014Swimming in Circles was the concept,&#8221; they shared. &#8220;He had been working with <strong>Jon Brion<\/strong>, who after hearing some early versions of songs, cleared his calendar to help Malcom fine-tune them. After his passing, Jon dedicated himself to finishing <em>Circles<\/em> based on his time and conversations with Malcolm. We are eternally grateful to Jon and to those who gave their best to the difficult and emotional task of putting out this body of work. This is a complicated process that has no right answer. No clear path.
