'Trout mask Replica' - NOT!
Just speaking to a mate of mine who plays keyboards in a band-he said that they were planning to do a track off the good Captains 'Moonbeams and bluejeans' album(!).
We both swapped notes on 'TMR'.the perennial Rock critics favourite.

I like to play a variation of a Bach contata as a lullabye or as a meditation. It goes something like this:
A2A2 BAGA BAG2 F2F2 GFEF GAB2 A2A2
then sometimes I let it flow with the same offsets starting on a different note.

I will also report that writing music has helped me through many a dark day.

And Peter Erskine Trio with John Taylor (Touch Her Soft Lips And Part in As it is)
Hejira - Joni Mitchell (I agree with you Dubhlinn)

I think Joni Mitchell's "Court & Spark" was a perfect record. Not a bad moment.

Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.
