Ok, it's time to come clean.

It was me.  I performed the Little Walter solos note for note.  And  
some Big Walter ones.  And James Cotton.  Mea maxima culpa.  I await  
approbation.

I suppose I should really come clean now.  I also tried to be sneaky  
and played them also in retrograde.  There's no use in hiding any  
more.  It was me also who played the entire 27 chorus Paul Gonsalves  
solo from Diminuendo and Blue at Live at Newport.  Fits nicely into  
Mystery Train.  A few blow bends necessary that took an afternoon to  
get around.  And the savvy in the audience I'm sure were pillorying  
me for my dastardly reduction of Varese's Ionization which I used as  
an introduction to my own composition "She Got a Waggle L'ak a Broke  
Down Humpy Dumpy", for which, I am ashamed to admit, the lyrics were  
stolen verbatim from the Molly Bloom chapter of Ulysses.  Well, I do  
add a little of my own regional dialect for authenticity.

I feel so ashamed.
