Knocking on 7-11's Door

So here's Our Man's latest... featuring pornographic manga and an elephant! Just, have a look, OK? (and crank up the volume on your PC, Daddio!):



A few sleeve notes:
Our Man shot the live footage while popping out to his local 7-11 for some Saturday Night Specials
Our Man did each track in one take (practice really wouldn't have improved it). First he did the guitar and sang on Saturday night after consuming said specials.
He had to keep it down though as the kids were in bed (hence the subdued singing, well, and because he is crap at it too...) Can you hear the crickets chirping in the front garden?
Sunday afternoon he could be a bit noisier so added the harmonica and slide guitar tracks.
By the way, he only has one made-in-China acoustic guitar, but by the wonders of the iMac and free software, he ran it though a virtual fuzz box (the particular fuzz was appropriately enough called British Invasion).
That's all folks!

It's the elephant that I am still pondering.

Comedic? Like you have to ask, Doc. As it says in the YouTube notes, the elephant just popped out for some peanuts.
