The comic title is from Harry Nilsson’s “Nilsson Schmilsson” album. It is one of many songs that featured a great bass guitar line performed by the great Klaus Voormann that inspired me to be a bassist. But I have to say it was the Who’s John Entwistle that inspired me the most. Never played like him, but still a good goal to shoot for. An underrated bassist was the Moody Blues bassist John Lodge. Flawless and smooth, plus dead-on accurate. Damn, practice-practice…
We return to Latvia on Wednesday to wrap up our gang’s adventures there.

Nilsson Schmilsson is one of my favourite albums. You, sir, just earned 10 credability points!
