| All right now, watch this. |
| Let me tell you about this song. |
| This song was |
| originally constructed as a drum solo. |
| That’s right. |
| Now, after Terry learned |
| how to play The Black Page on the drum set, I figured, well, maybe it would be |
| good for other instruments. |
| So I wrote a melody that went along with the drum |
| solo. |
| And that turned into The Black Page part 1, the hard version. |
| Then I said, well, what about the other people in the world, who might enjoy |
| the melody of The Black Page, but couldn’t really approach its statistical |
| density in its basic form. |
| So, I went to work and constructed a little diddy |
| which is now being set up for you at this little disco type vamp. |
| This is The Black Page part 2, the easy teenage New York version. |
| Get down with your bad selves so to speak to The Black Page part 2. |
| Thank you. |
| Did anybody dance? |
