had about a 1/2 hour to jam last night, so I had to make it a "lite" jam session

Great job, Mike! Takes me back to my youth!
So, at 2:14, did someone walk in the room and smile at you?
Or were you passing gas?

did you know the bassplayer for the lovin spoonful was a ---hahahaha "THUMB" player when he wasnt playing the keyboards???...
well....... I was trying NOT to stare into the camcorder monitor ( a small 13" TV ) and I guess I caught myself and have a chuckle on myself.
or...............
I was starting to daydream and at that moment I snapped back to life. ( I was kinda "tired" )
and "YOUR youth"?...here's one for YOUR youth I just went and did after I read this post that was WAY more popular than anything the LovinSpoonful ever did
( I actually did ChildrenOfTheSea, but youtube blocked the audio so I only have it in my computer ) God I hate youtube sometimes, cause you never know when you spend a few minutes preparing a video, doing it, only to have it dumped off youtube --oh well you've heard it enough times I'm sure

Well, given the fact that Tom Jones recorded It's Not Unusual in 1965, and I wasn't born until 1966, that song would indeed by from my youth!
OK, music trivia time! Name the guitarist who did that very same session.
A young English guitar wizard who would go on to become one of the most influential guitarists and songwriters ever.
Jimmy Page.

ya I pretty much said your youth because if your parents were spinning the 45 back then....well....
but, if you gotta have something from your pre-teen years that is just as popular from when you were 3-8 years old and not a baby ( you know the "learning" years )....here's one that taught many a kid a lesson or 2
you know what kills, is this video has been on youtube for 9 months already -- man it seems like only a couple months

Mike, either you are an absolute bass genius....or you need to get out of the house more!
Actually, my choice would be the first one.

well I like to cater to the older crowd which is pretty obvious, not so much as to shrug off the kids, but to remind the old folks that I have not forgotten when ( not where ), we came from. Remember your youth yes...but LONG LIVE THE 80'S
