Others might call it a plum job.

A guy I knew in the army had a.... never mind.

As a kid I remember hearing urban tales of hot dogs being made of sweepings off the floors of butcher shops...

Everything but the squeal!

And now, for something completely different..

I love this. Heard it in another video long ago. There's plenty on YT.

When I couldn't afford a Heil Talk Box like Peter has (5:50), I resorted to a Jews Harp. It wasn't quite the same.

Then there was the tale of a worker falling into the vat at Campbell's Soup. They never found him.

Mmm-mmm Good!

So you're climbing out barefoot?

Life was dangerous enough building the railroad. The rain, the snow, and pumas in the crevasses. At $1 a day for a chinese worker and $1.50-$2.50 for a white worker, it’s surprising that protesters today aren’t out tearing down the railroad lines. I suppose it’s because there aren’t media cameras* out in the wilderness.

* I saw a protest last weekend. Never seen anything more scripted. The group was quietly standing with the placards. As soon as the cameras starting rolling, they erupted with their anger and chants. The instant the media started to leave, they disbanded. At first I thought it was a movie set but it wasn’t, it was in the news. It’s amazing how sheep have a need to follow and be manipulated. No conviction. All for a media moment. What does that say about anything in the media.

Back to the pumas, there are always predators like C.M.O.T. Dibbler on the stump selling low grade subsistence products to those that have very little.

That's really the entire point for some.

Fascinating. He's got tapes on the Rivoili.

Black nylons were part of the look and sound.

 

[GwenOnBass]

... and just when I've got my RSO (Rivoli Shaped Object) running nicely on LB Low Tension Flats that replaced the tapes ...

The nylons don’t have to be strapped onto the bass.

Billy's bass techniques and style of music is not really my thing, but he seems so down to earth. Very articulate and interesting. Plus a great story on his basses and references to the old days. Thanks for posting.
