Me too. And even more… what if he had a Keith to his Mick… or a John to his Paul… or even a whole band in his corner, as those guys did.
But, even so, it’s amazing what he accomplished.
Thanks, Seth.
Tony

Maybe it would have reined in Brian’s daring, who knows? But it’s interesting to think about…

My greatest weakness as an amateur musician (flautist) has always been understanding harmony and how it functions within the bars of melodies. Structure I’m better at. So when you play me “I Get Around” I go…holy shit, Bach.

See you soon.
