MTI folks

Alright Gang, I'm not entirely sure if this is what we had in mind, but as I was trying to go to bed and convince my muses to be kind enough to let me sleep, I stumbled upon a strange inspiration from King Curtis.  And thus, I write:

#64

"How to Make a Jam Orchestra:"

Start by preheatin' that oven.
Not too hot now, not yet.  Just 275.
What goes in the mix?
Well, gimme me about 2 pints a slap-back bass on that tuba.
Combine 1 oz. acro cello with a dash of pizzocato.
Now half a cup a some fiddlin' violin.
Double...Stop that!
Double the woodwinds with flute and clarinet,
just a pinch of trills and arpeggios, please.
Now add just a dash of brass for some extra class,
And fill it out with a few black and white keys.
Add about 3 tablesppoons a boiling vocals,
And 3 cups a tribal drums.
Now Beat. Well.
The oven's hot and re'rin' to go.
Pour out the mix, spread out the dough.
What's that? Not enough spice?
Alright, how 'bout a dash of folk?
and just a pinch of classical.
Now a touch a jazz and a coupla rocks.
Perfect!

It is meant to be read aloud.  Ah, lovely beat poetry.
