And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

The reality all guitarists face is that the physical part of playing slows down with age. Listen to any of the greats from 40 to 60 years ago; it has affected all of them. It puts a premium on being musical instead of just fast.
And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun But it's sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way But you're older Shorter of breath, and one day closer to death

ReplyDeleteThere is newly discovered audience film from Ivor Wynne out on YouTube. Really cool.

The Bread lyrics indicate lack of Pink Floyd knowledge, then the Time reference nailed it!
ReplyDeleteNeeds a lot more hair, though. He looks like he's getting chemo or just got mobbed in a redneck bar.
