A few years before my time but the clip is a true classic.
It's from The Mike Douglas Show and he had some excellent performances
on his show (John Lennon & Chuck Berry, Sly, JB,etc..)

Thanx for posting that. Damn, she was pretty bad!! (And I mean that in a GOOD way). Very loose but still tight. And that Fender Rhodes was smooth too. She was fine back then, wasn't she?

I don't mind looking like an idiot, so I'll ask - play the fish? Sounds dirty. What's it mean?
