I don't know anything about Canned Heat, but I love his playing with Tom Waits, and while it's hard to say who is doing what, he's on Martinis & Bikinis by Sam Phillips (along with Colin Moulding and Jerry Scheff, so ... good company) and there is some awesome bass playing on that album.

Wasn't one brother at least a hair shittier than the other? Anyway, death comes for everyone, asshole, but at least you donated piles of money to some not-evil things while you were around, which someone perhaps will think about every time they see your name on something and wonder, "hey, wasn't that that asshole?"

Yeah, Charles is even more evil, somehow, but just slightly

there are plenty of critiques to make of Jane Mayer's work, but you can't say that she didn't report that baby David and Charles Koch were made to shit "precisely on schedule" by a Nazi pic.twitter.com/kEBnkZWMms— Brendan O'Connor (@_grendan) August 23, 2019

I mean the psycho abusive Nazi nanny probably had a hand in making them as insanely avaricious and evil as they were/are
