I have just discovered that Tony Wakefield is putting us on !!!

I took another trip in my time machine and I listened to his entire
composition again..... but speeded up by a factor of 127 (state of the
art digital time machine, don't you know). It turns out that his 30
minutes of repetition of the word "rubbish" are not spaced evenly, and
they are in fact a credible vocal percussion sonata when heard at a more
human speed! (Obviously Tony composed this piece for whales
originally.) I'm also impressed that Tony has expanded his repertoire
beyond clarinet and piano.

Admiringly yours (and I want my pint, Tony),

-Bill
