Well, one adventage of turning 65 is, I have to pay less for public transport, exept trains.
Help - The Beatles
Dancing in the street - David Bowie and Mick Jagger
Yeah, but this often seems to be the only place I have friends. Not so much in real life.
Today I was at the optician. My eyes have gotten worse again. The vision in my right eye seems to be 50% and...
Turned 65 today. Don't really know if it beats the alternative, but that's my depressed and lonely side speaking.
I always shut down, how I'm supposed to do.
Now if I only would find a way to remove the battery from it's holder.
Sad news about Richard Tandy.
Peter Calicher, keyboard-player of the Dutch band Gruppo Sportivo has also died. He also played on Supersister Project 2019. There has been some mutual admiration...
At this moment there seems to be another weird problem with my computer. It starts as soon as I turn on the power, so I don't have to push the button on the computer.
Days like this - Krezip
J.O.S. days - Nits
Behind the gardens - behind the wall - under the tree… - Andreas Vollenweider
Yeah. First let my Roland warm up and then I could tune it, which was quite a job, because both tuning-knobs were stepless, so not like for instance like the MiniMoog.
And it looks like Cherry Audio finally has a new synthesizer coming.

I wonder what it will be. Some think it will be the Chroma.
I want a SH-5....
Lady - Jane
On the run - Lake
You angel you - Manfred Mann's Earth Band
For Grand Piano patches I have V Piano. But other textures are always interesting.
The miracle - Queen
Interesting, but not at this moment. The whole Augmented series looks interesting as well.
Dark matter - Alan Case
Swimming into deep water - Don Rosenbaum
Damburst - Water

Smoke on the water - Deep Purple
But I suppose you could hear what you were playing. I didn't and I had to pay for a cab home.
But still it was a once in a lifetime experience.
A live record - Camel
Me at my only live performance
1756717568
Drive my car - The Beatles
At the speed of sound - Wings
Only live performance I did, was at a fashion-show. Me in the back of the audience playing over a backingtape I made beforehand and couldn't hear, while I also couldn't hear what I was doing, dressed...
The sound of America - Lake
Lovesong - Twelfth Night
Love cats - The Cure
No, one of his later albums, with songs more or less based on German songs titled Volxlieder. Weirdly enough he didn't like any of the other albums in the same vein.
He was fine with improvisation, within limits I suppose, though he hated musicians who overdid it and played to many notes. A drummer should be felt, not heard and a piano-player was there just for...
One-way wind - The Cats
Then he was like my dad. They should have met.
It looks like vinyl only and relatively expensive. Nr. 369 in Traditional Jazz and Ragtime?
I consider them jazz, but I don't think they are ragtime or traditional jazz.
Yeah Bix, early Ellington, Satch, no Dixieland, he tended to name that VVD-jazz (VVD is a Dutch conservative liberal (not in the US sense of the word) party, which is basicly aimed at the well to...
Because he didn't like anything that came after it, like swing, be-bop, postbop and whatever. He even cancelled his subscription on a magazine, dedicated to traditional jazz, because it also wrote...
Very nice and there is defenitly a lot going on. The beginning reminds me on early Kayak and the organ parts reminds me a bit on Trace. I'ts a bit short.
Thought this would be an Edgar Winter cover.
Yes, Focus was Dutch.
I got that one too, some time ago. They should have hired Thijs van Leer, to do the yodeling.
Nineteen sixties man - Lake
In the Floyd vein? Really? I don't hear that. They changed during their short career and their last album was in German and far removed from prog.
Pirates - Emerson Lake & Palmer

I've tried the Behringer Vintage. Looks nice, but the manual is very, very basic.
Voyage voyage - Desireless
Images at twilight - Saga
Nice one. I get a kind of Rush feel. Really like the acoustic ending.
Bedshaped - Keane
I read 'The heat of the money tour'.
And there is no chance Jan Akkerman will ever join Focus again.
Now if they would add Eddie Jobson, they could do an Air cut tribute.
An eating house - Nits
I have to say, I don't agree at all. You sound like my dad, who used to say that jazz ended somewhere aroud 1930, 1935. Everything that came after that was not jazz in his opinion.
Music changes,...
The potato eaters - The Nits
Take on me - A-ha
Flood - Everon
This world of water - New Musik
