With the blazingly honest message heading, “Terrible Pun,” Rifftides reader Don Frese writes from the University of Maryland:
As part of my last duties as a librarian before retirement, I am wading
through Garrison & Morton’s Medical Bibliography to identify which historically important books we own so that they may be tagged for keeping as we prune our collection to make room for renovations to the building. Just now, I was in the psychoanalytic section, and seeing Carl Jung reminded me of my never-used idea for an album title.
I wanted someone to title one of Shelly Manne’s dates, Manne and His Cymbals, but alas, it never happened.
Alas.
