See? THAT'S what I'm talking about!
This was when Spinal Tap were really good! What happened?
How could they go from such Peace & Love & good happiness stuff to that degraded METAL crap they put out in the 80s?

They were GREAT! lol

Dave Mason on bass & sitar!! He went on to become quite the guitarist tooo
Saw him solo a bunch of times at the Troubador in L.A. in the early 70s
Saw Traffic a lot too but even when Mason rejoined the band for Welcome To The Canteen they didn't perform this gem.

At the NAMM our booth was near the Danelectro/Italia booth. Italia has an affordable Sitar now, which is a copy of the Coral.

This song has a real Monterey~Animals vibe. SS must have built this off that.
