Love the guy. Mr Tut is a scream (I like Bernice Lewis' take on it complete with dixieland clarinet and rattlin' "bones"). "I Brought My Father With Me" is touching without being maudlin. I also appreciated his participation in the Weaver tribute band.

I once rewrote:

Jack Horner's not the kinda guy
To leave his thumb jammed in the pie
When he could eat it...

In hopes of playing it for him at a workshop he did in our area.
