quite cool man (wicked pecs too : )
Yeah, I was wondering the same thing, but according to Wiki, this would be Harvey Mandel on this track.
Great sound, great music anyway
dang...this is awesome.
quite cool Mayall, works every time
We still watch plenty of streaming video including stuff that get put out over television channels. There are still annoying commercials — the info-mercials of Canadian pipeline companies are enough to drive a person crazy and I am resource friendly guy — but far fewer commercials than before.
Did some good solo work, too!
Harvey is an "is," not a "was." I saw him a couple of years ago at WestFest, a 40th anniversary Woodstock commemorative event in Golden Gate Park.
Leslie West was there, too (and had lost a ton of weight!). The Merry Pranksters did some schtick, and Stanley "Mouse" Miller had a booth where he was hawking his posters. I was a very fun event.
Not really. . . I own a TV that I run iTunes through at home and watch movies on and occasionally play BBC programs that interest me via their online replay service. (I don't own cable, or even have a TV arial!) What I was really referring to is that I have opted out of having commercials played to me and decide what I want to watch. Of course, this has only really become possible recently with decent broadband connections.
Another advantage of course is living in the UK where one can still view high quality commercial free BBC (long may it last!).
As a result, the amount of advertising I am subjected to is a tiny fraction of what an average person gets in their face. This includes not reading printed media as much as possible. . . and my life is far better for it.
Good for you, poacher! I threw out my old (non-cable) TV when I moved a couple of years ago and after 2 months, I didn't miss it. It's amazing how much time it can waste and it can be a really monkey on your back. (Sorry if I sound like the guy in the Onion!)
Oh, by the way Bill, can we have Japan "Television".
Are you one of these guys?

Harvey 'Snake' Mandel was a great guitar player. He's in the Woodstock film, playing with Canned Heat.
Did some good solo work, too!
