Sinister: Kale Goes Stale on Rocks called Waves

[Gordon]

Ok, erm,.. woops..eek; tripped up. Gosh! So many fine and
Posts, yes. you're rather good you know, like the woman in a basque the
other night: you're really rather beautiful and I never really noticed.
Well, ok, I did. She was as well.
A fiddle is the same as a violin; the difference is contained within the
manner of holding it and the composure of one's left wrist [that is, if
the player is right handed, and on the sinister list perhaps this isn't
the right thing to say] a violinist usually distances the shoulder from
the base of the instrument via a 'chin rest' (although some of the best
players manage to dispense with this) and their left had is crooked at
the wrist so as to facilitate dexterous (!) movement of the fingers up
and down the strings and over them. A fiddler, on the other hand, rests
his palm on the underside of the neck, which does the job required in
folk music but would end up lacking in that required of some of the
works in the classical canon. Or so the theory goes. If one progresses
to Shoenberg, on can get out a saw instead, and I've heard that the
Aphex Twin owns a submarine. Which is more undersea than underhand.
"Hullo! What a jolly gigue! Now tell me, is this a periscope here?"
Sandy Denny: isn't that a girl? One moment... darnit! he's not on my
'French Affair' double CD compilation but I've seen the name around Pl.
Ste. Michel.
I'll just have to listen to the theme tune to 'Emanuelle' then. Ooh..
and Je T'Aime.. comes right, left all over afterwards. I should shave
but I won't! so there!
Veni veni veni wrote the leacherous monks behind Carmina Burana, which
reminds me of fiddling... whilst Rome burns, or the madness of King
George the III, or, delusions of grandpa.
Deleuze-moi.
I have an idea.I shall attempt Morningside Crescent.
