Good memories from scantly a year a go... I'd forgotten how much
"Shingaling" became such a live highlight. But it's not a Bo Diddley
beat... it's apparently the New Orleans "second line" rhythm, of which I'd
nevear heard until it was mentioned in numerous reviews of "Songs & Other
Things". So much for my career in ethnomusicology, I guess.
