Elephant Talk



This particular chunk of video has much meaning for me. I watched it intently with my friends Derek, Geoff and Thomas (The HOG) millions of times in 1981. I still love it.

Oh jesus christ...

Now that's funky!

Think what would have Saturday Night Fever looked like if these had made the soundtrack instead of beegees.

They would have name it

Sunday Morning Cold Sweat.

Yep. 81 stick. Wasn't Levin one of the first people to use one of those things?

He later went on to commit further mind crimes, the drum sticks on the fingers being the most horrific.

The stick was developed in the 70's, but Tony was the first to put it to prominent use.

Another mind crime Levin committed was the Tooth-Pick-Stick...Hendrix loved it but it caused even too much feed back for him...but the crowd went crazy so he kept it in the act.

I must say that the most horrific mind crime is David Hasselhoff.

Wow!

Thanks for the link on this.

I have seen these guys at least 20 times live and I also have many videos and performances of this song, but this may be my favorite version.

Thanks again. I'm sure I will enjoy this a million times.
