A Kafkasque roller coaster ride

Hung out with Georgie Fame unexpectedly last night. Talked for a long time. Talked about Ben Sidran, Mose Allison, "Lost Mind," Zoot Sims, Bob Malach, his record "Cool Cat Blues," the old Van Morrison and Eric Clapton records, Howlin' Wolf, the blues, and everything else. What a guy! The wisdom, the knowledge, and the demeanor. A guy with a rich history behind him.

And then he sang "Moody's Moody For Love." That almost brought tears to my eyes. A moving moment that reminds me why I love music in the first place.





So what do I like about music? Everything about it.
