[78-L] Don't Give Up the Shep

[Taylor Bowie]

I know what Fred is talking about here...the rat-a-tat endings (good 
description!) can really mess with your head,  esp. on songs which have a 
rhythmic structure which resists such a fixed formula.

For a real audio scare,  try the Shep Rippler's versions of   Too Marvelous 
for Words or,  even more disconcerting,  September in the Rain!!!  They are 
the musical equivalents of square pegs in round holes.  Must be heard to 
(not) be appreciated.
