That would be one of the great ad-libs of the decade, if only it weren't completely scripted.

Wow. Take *that*, Procul Harem. I didn't know about Carlsson or his music career at all. I hear some standards like "Sunny" and a little Maurice Ravel in that TV clip. They finished like they thought they were the Who. Swedish actor and music legend Janne 'Loffe' Carlsson dies aged 802017 AUG 31 by Staff for The Local www.thelocal.se/20170831/...janne-loffe-carlsson-dies-aged-80Most of the public knew him for his comedy parts in popular Swedish movies such as 'Repmånad' (1979) and 'Göta Kanal' (1981), but he is also considered one of Sweden's foremost jazz percussionists.
As part of psychedelic jazz rock duo Hansson & Karlsson, he played together with American rock legend Jimi Hendrix, who was a known fan of the duo and went on to record one of their songs, 'Tax Free'.Hansson & Karlsson - Tax Free [Monument] 19672010 MAY 27 by Giovannino SenzaPaura (07:16) Tax Free - The Jimi Hendrix Experience Jan. 10th 1969, 1st show, Copenhagen Denmark2016 AUG 26 by Daniel LaCroix (12:48) Not just throwing a fish to the Scandanavian audience, I think Jimi was genuinely influenced by his contact with H&K. As of the 5-minute mark, not much remains of "Tax Free" but it's quite an amazing blues jam. Noel Redding in light mulberry colored bellbottoms. Other sources mention that H&K accompanied the Jimi Hendrix Experience on a tour of Sweden. Carlsson also played with saxophone legends Johnny Griffin and Dexter Gordon. Hansson & Karlsson bio at AllMusic www.allmusic.com/artist/hansson-karlsson-mn0001561484In 1966, jazz drummer Jan Karlsson was introduced to the former bassist of the Merrymen, Bo Hansson. The latter was still a novice at the organ [ although a guitarist with a sizable reputation ], but Karlsson was so impressed with what he heard that he invited him to form Hansson & Karlsson, an instrumental drum and organ duo. Their music was built on improvisation and they seldom knew what they would play before concerts.Carlsson's last name is actually spelled with a C. The ROVI editors blew that one. Nobody says a word about their sideman guitar player, but there he is regardless. Hansson & Karlsson at Spotify:

I gave it a shot, but I couldn't get all the way through this. The best thing about GNR is the later bands they inspired.

Booth staffer never needs to put her feet upJust a periodic recharge like all of us Too lifelike, it was a total wow. If the cute girl with the piqué spacesuit and the odd facial jewelry seems distant and preoccupied, it's because gynoid robots have concerns we wouldn't know about. The poster said her presence was so ambiguous he had a sudden weird thought to sniff her to see if she smelled like a machine. That is so Carbon Phase.

Kristi Yamaguchi, who graces my Midwinter solstice holiday tree, every year... I must say that Michelle still looks to be in extremely good shape, after 7 years of retirement!
