Just thinking out loud... How about a music rest that is a LED touch screen. It could give you controls and/or it can hold music when needed.

My supercar interests came to mind when I saw interface. Besides Nest, Ferrari Purosangue makes use of this circular interface.

I started my daily practice by recording self-eval. You could call this one Baby Steps.

Randomly found this clip. Jim's solo starts around the 6 minute mark.

Ended morning practice with self-evaluation one take recording on my N2. https://soundcloud.com/pete36251/there-is-no-greater-love edit: learning by doing and making mistakes.

Presented to me on YT. Great cover. Lead vocalist kills it and keyboards get all the sounds.

That's why I like YT, plus I'm not sure I want a pet that will out live me.

That's great. Honestly, I never heard this song before. I never get tired of that phrase.

I ponder this question everyday. Sometimes I don't even know until I start playing.

Watching that interview, YT offered me this. I sadly, didn't follow him much after Song of the Sun. He definitely left his stamp on music. That little music idea he uses in a lot of his compositions (ba-da ba-da, ba-da, ba-da ...) IMHO is unique in its simplicity and I can't say I ever noticed in any other artist.

This topic makes me a little sad. As a late teen, I was playing in a band and we would dream about visiting 48th St in NYC (from Massachusetts.) We finally decided and took redeye train for a one day pilgrimage to NYC. Walking around Broadway at 4 AM, hanging outside the Dakotas, hoping to see John Lennon, walking through Central Park, visiting 48th St and loving it, then going to observation deck of WTC, which just opened. One of my favorite memories as a musician; all due to the music stores on 48th St. I visited them a few more times before mail-order and better local stores emerged.

This CP4 has been posted on and off for a few years. I know you're all set. It has been MIA, since you've posted your desire to own one. Anyway, seller probably didn't want to ship it. https://boston.craigslist.org/gbs/msg/d/chelsea-yamaha-cp4-88-key-stage-piano/7722133592.html

RIP. Song of the Sun is and was a favorite of mine. Weather Report vibe, but original to Jim and great improvisations.

Reading this thread reminded me of this Jeremy Siskind video. I think this would be a good place to begin.

This popped up on my YT. The photo promoting video interested me cause Keith was playing a Yamaha organ, which I never saw before. Cool.

Social media has everyone feeling like they stayed at Holiday Inn Express last night and to make things worse they're at their bully pulpit in their parent's basement.

One thought that keeps popping in my head when watching him is - Who looks better in old age, bald since 21 like me, or grey thick hair?

os.I saw this the first time this week. It now becomes apropos.

Never thought it worked as advertised.

Here's something new but old.

I can't stand Jimmy Fallon (sorry wrong thread.)

All I have left of my Invisible stand is the bag. It was clunky even with the bag, but I still have remember loving it at the time for its mentioned attributes. At the time I also was using a Roland MKS20 and had the optional shelf on stand.

Wow, not a typo, just not good at measurements. Thank you for site info. Needless to say, I was close and very happy. I could think of it as a big wedding venue and I was the first table from dance floor. I saw Bill Evans at Jazz Workshop, among others. (small story <sorry> While waiting in line for Bill Evans, I watched Eddie Gomez pull up in Volvo station wagon, double park and carry his bass in.)

Back story: Around 73-74, a tpt friend and i, went to see TOP in Boston at Pall's Mall, small room. We didn't have tickets but hoped to get standing room tics. As we were in line, discussing our options, a couple in front of us turned and said they had a pair of tics and we could have them for cost. We had front row seats, TOP was literally, 500-1000 ft away, with no risers. All original member, etc. (There's a live album from that period that many of you are probably aware of. They recorded it at a radio station in NY, I think.) . Anyway, I too had the same response about the crowd. I, could not sit still in my seat for all the up tempo stuff and I remember looking around and being amazed how stoic these people were being, as the most funky music was being played live. I'm sure there were others into it, I mean it's a music town. Now I'm kind of a old man snob in that I wouldn't go see them live again, so to preserve the memory I have of that night but, I've watched tons of newer versions of TOP and they still got it. Sadly, I didn't dig some of the vocalists they got after original left. I loved that the organ was jacked up and part of the sound. Lastly, I have an original vinyl copy of CT's Powerhouse, which I cherish even though I don't have a turntable.
