"It took Doug years to perfect his 'nutsack percussion' technique, but the audience never seemed to appreciate it."

Naked and relatively unknown at the time, Doug performs an early version of his hit "I want a woman (with the body of a teenage boy)."

Wrapped around each other
Trying so hard to stay warm
That first cold winter together
Lying in each others arms
Watching those old movies
Falling in love so desperately
Honey, I was your hero
And you were my leading lady
We had it all
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in our own late, late show
Sailing away to Key Largo
Here's lookin' at you kid
Missing all the things we did
We can find it once again, I know
Just like they did in Key Largo
Honey, can't you remember
We played all the parts
That sweet scene of surrender
When you gave me your heart
Please say you will
Play it again
'Cause I love you still
Baby, this can't be the end
We had it all
(We had it all)
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in our own late, late show
Sailing away to Key Largo
Here's lookin' at you kid
(Here's lookin' at you kid)
Missing all the things we did
We can find it once again, I know
Just like they did in Key Largo
We had it all
(We had it all)
Just like Bogie and Bacall
Starring in own old late, late show
Sailing away to Key Largo

"..25 years and my life and still
trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
I realised quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made for this
Brotherhood of man
For whatever that means.."

I came way late to the party, but: "Undaunted by slim crowds during his headlining set at the Bangor Nudists Spring Break '91 Beach Bonanza, ambitious young Epiphone Casinova plans his comeback, as one-time collaborator Don Juan D'Ovation looks on."
