What Did Santa Bring Ya?

firm buns panzade

Panzade, I cannot concentrate.... Could you please reconsider your avatar?

Indeed, you really should: look, how urs' eyes are fluttering and getting big and bigger!

Heh, confess, urs: you're only getting red faced for the gallery :wink:

Gawd...I have such a crush on Urs...don't tell BD though...

I got...a fine black denim shirt...for stage wear....

Msolga got a fine new box of Bisquick, which I'm sure she'll report on, just as soon as she figures out what the heck the stuff is good for.

Oh no, we will not tell him, Panzade!

Roger, what did you get?

We got a wooden guardian angel to put on top of the door frame where it now guards us.

I got (amongst other things) a beginner's harmonica & instruction book. So far, I can play Michael Row The Boat Ashore, When The Saints Go Marching In & He's Got The Whole World In His Hands. Next up is the Beatles' All My Loving. Cool!

Yeah, go for the Beatles tunes, Grand Duke. They are cool! Have fun with your new toy!

Love Me Do, GD...first tune I learned on harp...
Then get Them with Van Morrison and learn "Mystic Eyes"...there, that should keep you busy....

I like the Home Guardian Angel...that's a nice present.

Now I will have Love Me Do in my head all night long, Panzade. Well, could be worse, I guess...

Bruce Channel might have been a footnote in pop music history if he hadn't hooked up early in his career with another Ft. Worth musician who straddled the musical worlds of that city's legendary Jaxboro Highway. This stretch of bars alternated black and white clubs, where white boys played blues and black boys played country music and everybody kept an eye out for the law. Channel was a country singer, often heard on the LOUISIANA HAYRIDE radio show, but when he ran into harmonica player Delbert McClinton, he found someone as wild as he was.

Channel's big hit, "Hey, Baby," topped both the U.S. and British charts in 1962, and McClinton's harmonica on it inspired John Lennon's playing. Channel continued to record country in the years afterward, and McClinton has had a long career as a blues and roots singer.




John Lennon; Delbert McClinton, whose funky harmonica floats "Love Me Do"; and Bruce Channel.

Great avatar Panzade...much better than the complete darkness one :wink:


I got a new tripod for my camera, two extra cartridges of color ink for my printer, and a new TV for the bedroom.

OK...now you can make up invitations on your printer to come and view the homemade porno you shot with your new tripod on your new TV...hmmm

There's always a theme in gift giving

Hmmm interesting idea

Cheers, Pan. I've never been a big Van Morrison fan, but I'm quite taken with the harp so I'll check it out. My dad reckons I should try some Manfred Mann with Paul Jones on vocals/harp. My harp is only 10 holes and tuned to C. if I start playing more seriously, will I need a whole load of (bigger) harps in different keys?
