Dear alan,
three hours? Can hardly believe it.... This is just another very fine piece of music like you've written so many others. Very nice harmonic progressions, and the sax playing is of course just awesome. Al, I know that you are so modest, but you are a heck of a song-writer !!!!
Makes me sad to read thet Di still needs to have tests, so I hope that they brought sufficient insight to help her recover as much and as soon as possible.
Very warm regards to both of you,
Stefan
Guten Abend mein sehr gut Fruend ...
Thank you so much, Stefan! Yes, just a little more than three hours from first effort to posting it at Soundcloud. Sometimes, everything just falls into place. That's what happened here. And thank you for the song-writer complement. I sure do appreciate that!
Di's daily trips to the hospital are actually a good thing, although they are very time-consuming. She has to get an infusion of a very, very strong antibiotic that takes about an hour. They have surgically inserted a port (like the one they gave me for my cancer chemo treatments) just below her right shoulder. But with the travel time to and from the hospital, the prep she goes through, and the after-infusion follow-up, it's about three hours total. The good news is ... she's getting stronger and in better health with each visit. Right now, she feels better than she has in 4 or 5 years. But the daily trips, including weekends, are very tiring for her. I go for a three-mile walk with her twice a day, almost every day. She rides a battery-powered scooter most of the way but walks the last 50 meters. That';s longer than she has walked in many years. So, as we say here in the States ... It's all good! Thank you for aksing.
Again, many thanks for your kind words. We hope Maha is getting better, too. You two are special friends to us.
Bis spaeter ...
Alan & Di
