  1. As a kid, JS Bach's music was almost impenetrable to me, but I felt I would understand it one day. The important word is 'almost'. I could say the same about Cecil Taylor in my teens. In my teens I also heard the Grateful Dead. I understood the music ok, but it was coming at me from an oblique angle, like rock from another reality. I didn't really like it. Ry's music had a lot of elements that completely turned me off. I wont list them. That would be a waste of living. I strongly felt I needed to persevere with all of these types of music. With Ry, it took a very long time. It was a bit like when you see a pretty woman with a flaw in her appearance, and you have to persevere to see anything but the flaw. Bach, the Dead & Ry (and others) are so dear they ingrained in me now. I wouldn't really be me without them.
  2. I am a big fan of Ry. I love his work in his mature years much more than the classic stuff. I think the BVSC Cubans were happy to find appreciation and a little recognition. I think they respected him. I have a couple of those artist's albums (other than the main BVSC one) too.
  3. At least Peggys real. My heart broke when my snowwoman melted. I had to shop in the snow today. One of my gloves got a bit wet. I think I'll stay in now & wait for it to melt
  4. I know this song as 'Germany'. Because that's what the refrain sounds like to me. -Even after I found out it wasnt.

  9. Great version of 'On The Road Again', or is it now 'On the Canal Again'? Amsterdam?
  10. Right. Fine interview & interesting. Just read the 1st three of Patty's songs. She seems to have something down that eludes of lot of new lyricists. The verses seem to easily fit into musical bars. It's as if she has some tune in mind already. Is that the case Patty? There seem to be a self exploratory element as well as emotional expression in the content & tale telling is better than hinted at. Keep going Patty!
