The cute lady in the Santa hat came into the dining room. Brick, Brick…who is this? I listened. Eric Dolphy. Right! A few minutes later, she comes back into the dining room. Brick, Brick, who is this? I listened again. Tuxedomoon. Right! A few minutes later…Brick, Brick…who is this? Listened a minute. Earl Hines? Yes! Wow! A few minutes later, she’s back, very cute, very determined and very drunk. OK, Brick, we’re playing Stump Brick, who is this? The Pretty Things. Damn. How do you know all this music? Well, they’re my records. Damn, she said, and stomped off.

Pretty Things, “Dream/Joey”, Silk Torpedo (1973)
