1. I remember
standing outside Ken Colyer's jazz club cooling off back in '62 and a friend asking if I wanted some Bennies or Dexies. Being a happy little soul who just loved dancing to jazz I didn't have a fucking clue what he was talking about whereas my girlfriend kept poking me in the ribs everytime I said "pardon ?"

I love the "Can I see warts!" bit....lol.
