I recently sent youtube video links\u00c2\u00a0to a good friend of mine.<\/p>\n

It was about music we listened to in the sixties (yes, we’re that old, even though the friend in question is in denial).<\/p>\n

One of the clips was of a studio rehearsal of the band “Ten Years After<\/strong>” with our then-God Alvin Lee on guitar.<\/p>\n

My friend\u00c2\u00a0pointed out one of the comments. It was a short, one sentence, very simple comment. But I laughed my ass off!<\/p>\n

It simply stated: “The bass player needs to switch to decaf<\/em>”<\/p>\n

For maximum effect, turn OFF\u00c2\u00a0your sound (play it again WITH sound, it’s GOOD!) and play the clip with this comment in mind (the organ player is “on something<\/em>” too, as my wife pointed out).<\/p>\n

Update:<\/font>
\nThe clip I had here doesn’t work anymore. I found a link to the same session, but it takes a bit longer before it gets to the part of the over-enthousiastic bass-player.
