The photos are quite moving, people from Philly and as far away as London pay their respects. RIP Big Man.

1. Probably one of the greatest rock sax men in history
Where did he break his chops? Was his background in jazz before he joined Bruce?

Watch the clip.. where the entire concert hall of people sing the line "Down in Jungle Land"..click on the video on the right hand side.

A time capsule of the hopes and dreams of a generation.. the same generation who have been screwed relentlessly by our elected politicians. I don't think this solidarity is lost.. just muted by the constant barage from the Republicans.

You go Clarence.. wail on it one more time for everyone..http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=980
-----------------------------------



Outside the streets on fire in a real death waltz
Between flesh and what's fantasy and the poets down here
Don't write nothing at all, they just stand back and let it all be
And in the quick of the night they reach for their moment
And try to make an honest stand but they wind up wounded, not even dead
Tonight in jungleland
