Peggy Plays The
Electric Fish.
I wish you could see Peggy's bass more
clearly in this shot; it's a truly beautiful
5-string (custom-built, i think).

In Emma Bull's fantasy novel "Finder",
the narrator describes the way that a band's bass player "...grabbed a handful of strings and began to climb the alphabet.";
when he demands of his elven friend "How can he do that?",
she answers
"...too much exposure to Fairport Convention as a child."
