Perfect timing for this to show up yesterday so I could spin it for today's challenge! This is a random Bandcamp find impulse buy that I've been been streaming a bunch over the past five or six weeks. Turns out the wife very much likes it too so that's a bonus! Definitely has me dancing around the kitchen, dining room and living room a lot.
 
Day 18 - Little Wonder
Stinky weather fat, shaky hands / Dopey morning doc, grumpy gnomes
The song is about the 7 dwarves from Snow White.
Play something little or small.

Saw this guy stuffed into a nondescript box in an antique store a few years ago. Even though I knew I couldn't play it (plus it appears so worn it likely wouldn't play anyway) I couldn't let this awesome piece of blues be relegated to the bowels of a musty corner...

This may be my first (and last) time spinning this. I picked it up years ago as my youngest was obsessed with this ride. And recently I've been going through my Dads slides, and found this photo he had taken of the ride in its original location at the New York Worlds Fair in 1964.

Wow, look at that line. All those people waiting to have an annoying jingle implanted in their brains for the rest of their lives.

Little in name only, there's nothing little or small about Little Milton's voice or infectious grooves!
 
Day 16: Robert Fripp’s birthday May 16
And you, you can be mean / And I, I'll drink all the time
Robert Fripp famously played the iconic lead guitar on ‘Heroes’
Play something with a riff (any instrument) that is highly recognizable

The guitar lick on title track was the first thing that popped into my head.
