Thanks to:
MAGIC, MYSTERY
&
MEDICINE
...thats music, in a nutshell, to me.....MAGIC for what is conjures in the soul...MYSTERY, because it seems to reflect that about ourselves, which we don't necessarily understand...& MEDICINE, because it can inspire us to dance, or trigger a torrent of tears...either one is good for you.For me, the reason for making music (or at least trying to) is pretty simple, & has never really changed...it's about creating a feeling in people...a good feeling...the same feeling I get from other people, through the medium of music. I'm not saying I can do it...but it does remain an on-going quest...& that's about all I've got to say on the matter..for now...
Thanks for listening, & good luck with whatever you're into...
I look forward to hearing from you.
