You shoulda heard him thundering out Little By Little then! This was
completely unannounced, but I recognized it straight away as it was so
radically different to his usual drumming style. 

Then later when he did Kallalou Kallalou - somewhat looser and more
tentatively - it was the same thing - he is so loud and powerful. 

Kallalou Kallalou came up after someone asked him to demonstrate
something he'd had trouble learning.
