das problem mit dem B(b)

the flat has always been that symbol that flirts with sharps and taunts the very existence of the C major. but the german flat is [b] phonetically and corresponding to the histories of the alphabet. how can we call the flat, a prodigal clover if you wish, the make of a b? if you are upsydaisying 'baby', then you would have underestimated the german canniness to make the B which i happen to adore into an H (notice that i have vowelized the H?).

let us laugh it all off together over a merry song and call it a little handy.
