I read the Lamarre…probably five years ago now, goodness. I'd need to reread it to tell you what I think of it now in detail, though I liked it a lot at the time. The "exegetical engine" that Lurie discusses in chapter 7 certainly seems quite comparable to Lamarre's "song machine" in some ways, though they're totally different. And in any case, even when Tom's wrong, he's always brilliant.
