In the "Hora Staccato" solo by Junior back in 1966, he was "flutter" tonguing NOT "triple" tonguing. While Junior insisted at the time that it was triple tonguing, anyone who knows how to triple tongue knows the difference between the two. When triple tonguing you pronounce TA-TA-KA hinging both top sides of your tongue on your eye teeth. Gus Wilke taught me how to triple tongue by pronouncing the TA-TA-KA sound and Tommy Martin taught me to hinge my tongue on my eye teeth. Same holds true when you double tongue. The only difference is that you pronounce TA-KA. When you flutter tongue you are mimicing the sound of a machine gun (like when you played army as a young kid and had an "air" machine gun mowing down the enemy). If you have a CD of Rafael Mendez playing "Hora Staccato" you will hear the Master interspersing both the triple AND double tonguing techniques. Simply amazing.

Junior often referred to flutter tounguing as "Italian Tounguing". More than one judge bought into it.

If you *know* who it is.... please wait a while (not everyone is on here all day or even daily for that matter)

If there have been no Guesses..........Then give a *challenging* hint.

When giving hints on these try to be creative and just dangle the tiniest tidbit. Make people really think / work on it. Then wait it out a while before tossing another tiny vague tidbit...

C'mon we've got to make these last a little longer. PLEASE??

I think it is some sort of sea creature. Mollusk, maybe?

You must have missed my post on this. It's anything like an oyster, clam, etc. Yes mollusks.

And the clue for the superhero Puddy played that was reminiscent of how we were judged in the old days, was "The Tick".
