Based on my knowledge of Pat and his approach to things, I'd say he probably exercised his right to break the rules as often as he obeyed them. On "Harvest of Gentle Clang" he broke his album song sequence up with several "asides" that weren't songs at all. With Pat that worked fine although I don't know if singers known for their serious side could get away with that much foolishness. I do love that album though...
