I would like to talk to you about the serious subject of organ donation and the importance of carrying an Organ donor Card.Last summer I had a very serious accident involving a revolving door,a mime artist and a bowling ball.I was rushed to hospital where I was immediately given an organ transplant.
The surgeon felt it necessary to fit me with a Hammond P3 with a Leslie rotating speaker.Rejection problems were resolved with the help of a specialist from Zurich,who played me Emerson Lake and Palmer CDs for 17 hours a day.(To this day I still have to carry a small Walkman and emergency supplies of Deep Purple and Kula Shaker).
At last I feel my life is back on track-although I am still only really comfortable in the keys of C major and D minor.I am not the first member of my family to have undergone such drastic surgery,my father also underwent an organ transplant,although being older,he was fitted with a Wurlitzer.He now does matinees every Saturday in our local theatre.
Recent advances in medical procedure have seen the advent of microsurgery and miniaturization;trials are already underway by the Japanese,who hope to be the first to fit a mouth organ to a Nissan worker who suffered a horrific karaoke injury.So I urge you all,wherever you go-carry the card.
