Anthony, if we could ask you, how did it all come about?
We've just been great fans of Slim.
We travel around the world and we always get homesick.
I've been bugging the guys for years with Slimdusty tapes.
Middleton's rousing about in the middle of nowhere in America.
It's been really good.
We did the song together and they've been playing it on the television a bit.
The other day at a show we brought out Dorothy the dinosaur, Waggs the dog and everybody.
Everyone was excited except this little boy put his hands up and he said,
Where's Slimdusty?
Which was great.
You catch it on, you've got another 50 years.
Exactly, that's the fourth or fifth generation.
Guys, thanks very much [N] for coming.
Thank you, Slime. Thank you.
And [G] after the break, more of the Slimdusty story.
But Slim, could we impose on you again just for a few bars of Dunkin' to take us to the break?
You wouldn't mind?
Please?
We've got to work you here.
What do we do?
I love to have a beer with Dunkin'.
I love to have a beer [D] with Dunkin'.
We drink in moderation.
