(as evidenced by our high moral aspirations juxtaposed against , lets say for the sake of illustration, extra ordinary rendition or torture) What a country.
To honor my fellow friends out here on this international forum I will no longer censor my use of Asshole , especially since it is the title of the song.

in another matter. Nigel refers to Nigel Watson who accompanied Peter Green when he rejoined Fleetwood Mac to complete an American tour after Jeremy Spencer left for the children of god comunal group. Nigel played congas. i only brought him up because he played congas at some point when peter was playing with Fleetwood Mac
During the recording in question, if Peter was playing six string bass he would not have been able to play percussion, the only people left were John Jeremy, or Danny. Jeremy did sometimes play percussion. I don't really know if he did on that recording at the Boston Tea Party

I couldn't agree more with your views about our Puritan outside and "not so Puritan" inside. We are a closeted culture here in so many ways!!!

Thank you so much for the information and clarification. I honestly was not aware of the Nigel Watson connection at that time. That really helps.

Thank you again.

PEACE!!
