    This is rather brilliant. I’ve posted it on Farcebook to much acclaim. I hope I get to hear this performed.

    In fact, I think Black Scat should do THE DOUG SKINNER SONGBOOK next year.

    Many thanks! I wrote it years ago, and just revised it for a recent show. It was quite a workout for Ralph Hamperian, providing a bass line on tuba. A songbook would be nice. I would pitch it to all my students.
