THE THING WITH THREE REEDS

One of the things I've picked up on in the past is a better then average knowledge of door locks and how they work. Better than average, not an expert by any means. But I know enough that I occasionally get a call from someone who wants to find out if a lock can be repaired, and if it's something they can handle. One time I asked the guy what it looked like. "It's just a mess of tangled brass." Translated: "Rahsaan Roland Kirk".

Kirk played about a thousand instruments, some traditional, some modified tradional, some exotic, some self made. Sometimes he played more than one at the same time. Sometimes as in often. Check the video below, 1967. Ho-ly shit. It's another trip to the Transporter Room.
