"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

Happy Feet Friday
Johnny Otis and his band rock the New Orleans Shuffle (dig Pete Lewis on guitar).
I'm a sucker for guitar, that's quite a unique sound Lewis's got for the time.
I'm talking to Carol Kaye the great bass-guitarist on Facebook right now, about a recent jam she had with George Benson: she began as a jazz-guitarist. She's 85 now. Although she was supposed to be the bassist of 'the wrecking crew' she says there was no such thing. Real history is always more complex than movies.

Bruce: You move in some fascinating circles!
ReplyDeleteIn re: Lewis: he seems to have been almost totally forgotten. I couldn't find much biographical info at all. Sad.

ReplyDeleteWatch out, she may be 85 but if you say the wrong thing she bites!
