Flaco is one of those "one of a kind" people who can never be replaced when he passes on.

 

May he live and play long.

That is both over my head and under my feet.

I'm still doing Tex-Mex.  Haven't grown tired of it yet.  Right now this guy and his band is playing and singing:

We normally work in pairs in my business.  And on this show, I'm fortunate to be paired up with one of my favorite people on the planet.  I've known Scott for about 8 years now.  He is rapidly closing in on retirement.  In my biz, it can be rare to work with a friend as we all follow the work wherever it's available.   So to not only get on the same crew at this point in his career, but to also be paired up, is a rare gift for me.

 

Scott is a rare man.  A font of joy, passion, humor, always humor... driven by an intricately deep critical thinking mind and potent insights.  He also has a magnificent baritone voice and sings often while he's building.

 

Never paid much attention to Todd Rundgren until I met Scott.  Scott is a very big fan of Todd and I'm beginning to see why as I listen to more of his lesser known work.   He reminds me of Bowie in this tune.

 

All that set up to share this... (sheesh I talk a lot sometimes)...

The lyrics to Parallel Lines really resonated for me as Scott sang them yesterday.  Particularly resonant for me given the current political atmosphere.

Kindred spirits moving along the spiral

I can see you up on another level

It's too great a fall

And I can't reach you to pull me higher

But I don't seem to get much closer or any more far

What would you tell me, if I could hear you speaking?

If you could touch me, how would I know the feeling?

I just can't imagine

But I try to do it anyway

I wish I was moving faster,

I wish you'd drift back

But it just wasn't meant to happen

Very soon I'll have to Face the fact

Some things never come together

Parallel lines running on forever

And you can't turn back

There is never any starting over

Parallel lines never do cross over

It's a challenge Gotta make myself remember

Facing the truth, well, that doesn't mean surrender

What is bravado and how much is a force of will?

I know that the world is full of opposites that attract

But unless we ignore the physics

Very soon we'll have to

So I send you the gift of empathy

If you'd once in your life acknowledge me

I have visualized so thoroughly

That when I think of me I think of we

Can't face the truth It means that we must surrender

Understanding won't satisfy the hunger

It whittles away at the destiny we fulfill

And like an animal running wild

You can't call it back

And it's just gonna make it harder

When it's finally time to It's like a train that's stuck running on a track

Parallel lines running on, running on, running on

Here's the song

I like his acting a lot but I just can't do his music.

My son is a morning kid.  On weekends he wakes up shortly after I do and we usually take a long slow walk through the neighborhood before sunrise, before the busy folks wake up..

 

Satie utterly nails the feeling with this piece...
