I planned this show when it was about 40 degrees outside with the humidex. It's a sweaty one. Let me know if you're listening.

yep - you also miss the chance to be truly hip and reference "Money Jungle" Duke Ellington's collaboration with Charles Mingus and Max Roach!

Oops! I cued up the wrong song. I played the Burning Spear song "Lion" when I meant to play the reggae instrumental by George Lee called "Jungle Fever". I apologize for my mistake and any confusion it caused.
