New website, 3 cd set, an attempt at a new protege
music released via cyberspace and Target
the plan of a new vision, a man still in his prime
reaching forward while still harkening back:comparision to 1986, performance of All Day All Night, remix of In A Large Room With No Light

This was the begining of something new, something exciting.....However, it fell short of all expectations. The whole website shenanigans let the experience down. However, LF single disk is a fantastic album.

I think even the most faithful fans would agree

A collaboration between Italian designer Luigi "Allergic to Straight Lines" Colani and German piano-makers Schimmel in the late 1990s, the Pegasus grand piano looks like something you'd see on a Star Trek set.
Updates to the classic form include a slightly curved, ergonomic keyboard (eliminating any need for the player to move their body), an electrically-controlled hydraulic lid (to control projection) and a fully adjustable integrated leather stool. With over 200 strings under a total tension of 176,520 newtons and a key assembly with over 100 pieces (both standard to Schimmels), it's clearly a world-class instrument. In fact, only 14 were ever made (the likes of Eddie Murphy, Lenny Kravitz and Prince are all owners) and this one is up for a cool $110,000. Alas, the provenance is from a music store owner and not a celebrity, but that shouldn't prevent you from bidding or appreciating it.

Better With Time


Better With Time

This might seem strange
Since so much time has passed
And since only one of us
Still looks the same
Ur words not mine, baby
Ur still fine yes you r
Like wine, you get better with time
So young and so naive
That eye never once believed
That the memory of you would go thru
Like wind goes thru the trees

Maybe if you believe baby
That eye would no deceive you
U and eye side by side or somewhere
In between

Eye don't know if this is a bore
But eye just can no longer ignore
This fact so sublime
U get better with time

Anyone who's met you agrees
That no one 4gets you most of all not me
U can claim u're humble and hide
But when it's true my dear
It's not pride

A jury of my peers would find me
Guilty of so many crimes
If eye chose not 2 remind you
That you get better with time

This might seem absurd
2 someone so cultured
And 2 one who would grace any stage

When the hair that frames that face
Dark brown or silvery lace
What is age but a cage? never mind
U'll b blind 2 not know that you get better with time
