Hey Mr. Bassman

"When I'm on stage, I'm trying to do one thing: bring people joy."
~ James Brown

Haven't posted in a while. I'm doing so today because everybody needs to see this short video from the Prelinger Archive. It's an almost all-girl xylophone band. The exception is a male bass player. To call him enthusiastic is to understate the case considerably. It's a joy to watch his wild little self. Many thanks to Peter Stampfel for sharing this on Facebook. As he said, "Man, that's jolly!"

And sorry the video bleeds over the edges — it was one-size-fits-all and I'm not good with changing aspect ratios!
