Thanks! It was a bit of a challenge getting it to work but I managed to figure it out. There's always a way, isn't there?
I've always loved that issue of Men's Journal or whatever it's called; that someone did that. Who in the fuck had that idea!? That was not cheap. No matter: It's just killer. I was floored. That came out around the time of the book, the DON'T STOP THE CARNIVAL LP and I saw him at Jazz Fest that year. It was before the big deal with M Tequila came along, back when it was just his flying boat that he loved, before it was a commodity with the radar nose, when it was still a getaway, another boat to hop into and go somewhere - as it should be.
It was just awesome, that plane (even when it was Tequila'ed up it was still cool to a point - why not have your own flying bar? Ah, a bit over the top from that but nonetheless, at least it was his). Any of them, Albatross and Goose and Widgeons, for that matter, but his was so clean and simple. Just brilliant.
