I suppose we have a disclaimer now that states “please don’t wash your Tide Pods down with WD40!
Where are we going...and why am I in this Handbasket?

I'm afraid you and I are in the same boat Gary... our necks lack the skeletal structure for those moves anymore. 😆😆

I have seen that video before (and may have posted it on "What Are You Listening To"); I love it!

Reminds me of a three stooges episode.  Who was first, this band, or the stooges?

Well, true story time. It was a serious band, and I did in fact laugh so hard that I had to get out of the chair to breathe. One of my friends and long-time musical mentors had Christmas Eve dinner with the son of this bassist. He sent me the video this morning. It turns out, his technique was actually studied, and taught for a time at Julliard.

*there is no way in this world I'd have gotten through that tune of I'd had the job of one of those ladies, backing. No. Way.

The guy playing the solo at 1:10 might disagree with Larry Graham about who invented slap bass...

Speaking of the alphabet song, if you're a fan of weird Oingo Boingo / Elfmans / Kipper Kids stuff, check out their 1980 film Forbidden Zone, where they do an of-the-time-but-nonetheless-sort-of-offensive version of the 3 Stooges' Alphabet Song. Do a YT search for Forbidden Zone in Color: 'Alphabet Song' for that clip.
Very strange and enjoyable film, too, produced/directed by Richard Elfman, and featuring Danny Elfman, Herve Villechaize, Susan Tyrell, the Mystic Knights, the Kipper Kids, Viva, Joe Spinell, among others. The Oingo Boingo crowd used to come to my studio in Venice in the early 80s to record and hang out. Always fun having them there.
