Terrific choice. Love his music, what an artist.

Actually, I have a few of his albums (on CD, well, now on my iPod) and was privileged enough to see him play live a few years before his untimely death.
Lucky you. :) I hope you were on an angle such that you could see both his hands clearly.
He was a Master. I can't imagine that in his youth he woke many mornings and said "not today, too much pain and my brain is tired".

In a coffee shop.
A piece called 'Summer Madness' by Kool and the Gang.

Some years ago, I saw Kool and the Gang play live at the jazz festival in Tbilisi, and they were superb, cool, (as their name implies), and played elegant, sophisticated music.

Well, yes, @impulse462 - that album - and indeed, that particular track - have long (and by long, I mean for a few decades) been among my favourites.

If I find I haven't listened to it in a while (as in a year or three), I am always surprised at how good it is when I get to re-visit it. Brilliant album, and outstanding track.

Anyway, I am delighted that you have enjoyed it.

"Coding for stretches"? I find that Pink Floyd are brilliant to have on in the background while I am writing - some weird combination of psychologically soothing yet mentally stimulating.
Sorry it took me a while to respond to this..was studying for an exam.

Yeah in some classes I have to write code for various reasons...pink floyd's long songs are the perfect to listen go while doing this type of work i my opinion.
