Because Bertie Baigent is so very Young? Unfortunately I couldn't smugly tell Mr Gong Gong that I had La Monte Young's Well-tuned Piano but I have his Dream House LP.
(acquired at little cost in the 80's - closest thing to a pension plan I have). There's some incredibly long title involving the dreams of a tortoise in his Theatre of eternal music isn't there?

Know nothing about tigers except those that brightly burn....

Within half-an-hour and hedgehog gets the recipe today, Jim.
Bertie Baigent was recipient of an accolade in this year's BBC Young Composer's Awards;
Young at art we are indeed: La Mont's The Tortoise, his Dreams and Journeys;

Now, if the Tortoise was dreaming whilst asleep, a tiger similarly occupied might lead you to the third Youngster ...

What of Douglas Young and Dreamtiger? Didn't that Young once hunt a Snark?

Isn't 'splenetic' the adjective from 'spleen'....?

Almost, it should be "splenic"

In the same way we have: colonic from colon, and... um... um...

... ah yes, renal from kidney, hepatic from liver, gastric from stomach, glossal from tongue (or lingual?), dental from teeth, buccal from mouth, pedal from foot...
