Traces of Texas
@TracesofTexas
"Then there's the story of a young Texas lad in Sunday School who was asked to name the birthplace of Jesus. He guessed Gladewater, Mount Pleasant, and Bonham. When told the answer was Palestine, he said "I knew it was in East Texas somewhere."
In the Hieronymuss Bosch's "The Garden of Earthly Delights" painting (1480-1490 circa) there is some music written on the butt of one of the characters in hell.
But how sounds this 15th Century melody?
Here is how is the 600-years-old butt music from hell sounds:
Enchanting!
Arranged in the style of the period (the music score on the butt is just a short riff intended to be repeated) and played on Lute, Harp, and Hurdy-Gurdy by James Spalink.
The melody is based on the transcription by Amelia Hamrick.
I wonder if anyone has ever gotten that tatooed on their butt?

Florida man arrested after in-home castration goes wrong
The man told a deputy he had just performed a castration on a man and encountered ‘major issues.’ Deputies found a victim on a bed, bleeding heavily, with a towel over his groin.
