I'll be playing Nina Simone's "I Want A Little Sugar In My Bowl" today at noon PT to start the Blue Plate Special.

Nina Simone's music inspired many, including a claymation artist. This video comes from Aardman Animations, the folks who make Wallace & Gromit and Shaun the Sheep.

Does anyone else think the bass player in this video looks like George Mraz?
