  1. Super picture. Reminds me of Sam last night - he has had flu, but is getting better and suddenly found the energy to dance around to Gordonimmel's Deep Purple tracks ...

    Is that first track really called "Monkey Riding"? I know it as "Riding on a Donkey" -

    Were you ever in Quebec?
    Stowing timber on the deck
    And seen the lion and the unicorn
    Riding on a donkey?
    Hey ho, away we go,
    Donkey riding, donkey riding
    Hey ho, away we go
    Riding on a donkey.

    No idea where I learned it.

  2. Hi Ali: yes, it is Donkey Riding. C&B had already recorded a version of that, but this one has far more speed and vim, so they called it Monkey Riding instead.
