He and Kenny Schick (busy photographing the wedding) played the hoovin&#8217; saxes on &#8220;Cold Chicken and a Bottle of Gin.&#8221; Les also played the clarinet on &#8220;Viking Reggae,&#8221; our only song that ever got air play.<\/p>\n<p>We were doing &#8220;Shootin&#8217; Out the Porch Light&#8221; here.
