I'm trawling thru my drawer of unmarked cassettes in hopes of keeping my promise to Maddog and locating and deciphering the extra Fat Man verse...so far...no luck...but so much luck! A Cross Eyed Mary from 72 with a hysterical JHH intro....Left-Right almost note for note as on Nighghtcap...then Audition and No Rehearsal...much nmore enjoyable after years of Nightcap clarification...then a second side of Brick instrumental climaxing with flute wildness ( 'oh fluffy duck')...well...I'll keep going till I find the Fat Man at the end of the tunnel! And speaking of trawling luck...how come I never knew about the live Acres Wild on You Tube---preceded by the Bungle/Minstrel/Teacher medely I did know about...93?

Got some time off in a couple of weeks, so if you have no luck I'll have a trawl through my boots and cassettes to see what I can find. Trouble is I always end up finding something else I'd forgotten about and spending hours listening to it. Oh sod it, I don't mind

Found it...after a Reynard the Fox ( three voices? Vitesse singing with Pegg and Ian?), Tomorrow was today segued into Hymn 43, 20 seconds of Martin Barre telling an SF interviewer he plans to visit the SF Jethro Tull museum when he finds the time ( you can fool some of the people some of the time) and, finally Fat Man...here's what I hear:
have you ever seen a fat man having trouble with the something something laughing at the jokes he's made he can't remember something something
something something all the things they say all the excuses that he made that way something something something walking on a perfect day
Okay...I'm gonna need some help on this...the crumbs above took about 10 listens and i was getting diminishing returns...I'll repeat the exercise tomorrow with an ear on the other speaker...look for yours dog and we;ll figure it out. I wonder if Cup Of Wonder has a vote? I'll PM him an invite to look at my results sofar.
