I listened to several of John's albums back in the late 60's early 70's quite a bit.
I know you'll think I'm posting this just to torment you George.
But really I'm just helping you to know your enemy.
I don't much care for the arrangement on the opening song. But found this to be an entertain BIO.... But just to pore salt on your wounds Emmy Lou is in it.":O}
Of all the wonderful talents I have encountered on America's got talent"
This one that moved me more than even the best,
She grew up fast and in the face of death. Yet she sees clearly what it took half my life to see.
As you know by now I'm i love with Leo!
But when he has the unmitigated gall to say:
"I love this song because it's so easy to play"
I could just shoot him! You saw it!! Did it look easy to play to you!! LOL
Meh, call me a sourpuss. I wish it was a far better film, the time it celebrates is good by me.
And I got a new quote!
"When it's time to leave this world for a better home someday

that's ok, I still like you.":O}
Skip the Music and meet the man.He's a stand up guy.
Yes you are a racist. Or rather you are ignorant of the fact that there is no such animal as race.
Among animals there are sub-species, animals closely related but genetically differentiated in small ways but ways that matter.
There are no sub species in the human family. But like cats we come in different colors.
If we were skinned we would all be the same. Only the very most surface of ourselves is in any way different.
As with sports the very worst way to compare anything is by it's surface appearance.
For every great black musician there are a thousand black men who can't play a note.
So how can we judge music by color? If you do you gonna have to listen to a lot of crap.
White talent doesn't face the same hostility in this world as Black talent.
But that's not down to the color of their skin. It's down to white bigotry.
But you can not point to a white man and declare him a bigot as many of us despise bigotry.
Skin pigmentation only speaks to who needs sun tan lotion, it can't tell you who can swim.
Culturally we get a lot of white mediocrity, because they rarely face the same push back as black artist.
I see far fewer "average" black talents, because among Blacks only the strong survive in a predominately white population.
But for every Hendrix there is a Kottke. For every Clapton there is a BB king.
Jazz, a joy all over this world.... But not often my thing.":O}These guys is new to me but I like it!
One of the under appreciated and so I re-post! ":O}
