"The London Cab Tape"

[London
Probably November 29, 1970]


[Howard:] This fucking guy is flipped out, man! I'll be locked up!
[?:] Who, me . . . ?
Yeah, you too!
[?:] It was anti-semitic of me to bring it up
[?:] Why, you don't like Jews, man?
[?:] Let me make it perfectly clear, [?] I don't mind that you are Jew, stay out . . . Take your Bar Mitzvah man, and shove it
[?:] I never had a Bar Mitzvah
[?:] You ever had a Yamulka, man?
[?:] No, I wore one once, though . . .
[?:] I knew it
[?:] What's wrong? You don't like 'em, man? That was [?] my cowboy hat . . .
[?:] [?] Just keep it out of my way, man, I don't wanna see that Yamulka on stage ever . . .
[?:] Uh . . . well, I don't know, man, that'd be sorta neat, not in this group of course, but tomorrow
[?:] Alright, alright . . .
[?:] Howard Kaylan World!
[?:] The Yamulka
[FZ:] Ha ha ha!
[?:] Dear Frank, thanks for paying a hundred twenty three dollars for my meal in Amsterdam, which I hated!
[?:] I mean it, man
[?:] I really enjoy playing in your little own ensemble
[?:] For a day or so
[?:] Thanks for bringing a little slice of sunshine into my life
[?:] Thanks for showing me how sh . . . shitty the music business could really be, I thought I knew
[?:] Thanks for make [?] worst bass player in the world
[?:] After six months with the Mothers I figured I've lost everything I've ever had
