Bernie Glassman's favorite song was, IT DON'T MEAN A THING IF IT AIN'T GOT THAT SWING. Bernie took up with this song at about the time he asked Wavy Gravy for a clown teacher, he was concerned that Zen students might get their butts stuck to a spiritless cushion. My thanks to Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Dr. John for making this beautiful music. It is used without permission: so this film shouldn't be publicly reposted without a password. (9 min)
