And, a more contemporary take, performed performed by a kid that once got to sit down and learn to play with the Blind Man… a little later, that nine-fingered freak, a fellah who volunteered for the Dead Man's chair, a guy that plays the bass like a trombone, and an eight limbed drummer.

Folks,

What a tune this is.  A meditation with a fine band blessed with gobs of ukes, guitars, bangles being banged over the drums, cymbals jangled, and the words of an old preacher who shouted out a warning over the radio to his congregation back in 1941, "The undertaker, the devil, he does not take the day off!" The entire production was improvised. This is a genius band. Thanks Paul Simon for comin' around to help remember that other Jewish fellah.

The End of Secrets: Cont…

Folks,

Carrying on a previous theme. Even the NSA (No Such Agency) has noticed that its networks are porous.

A world without secrets, no impenetrable walls around information and what it reveals about our conduct and interests…
