Never saw Dances With Wolves. I know him from The Red Green show. If you're not familiar, you should check it out. He was a riot.

Particularly funny when his character panned the movie, "Except for that native guy. He was good."

Avenger Jr. has the musical gift that skipped a generation on me, but he still appreciates my recommendations of what some of his music teachers call "Geezer Rock."

One of the things he and I discuss is a band's level of talent reflected by the diversity of their songs and sounds. Unless they're a fan, most people would not be able to connect Supertramp's hits because they sound so different. Like Queen, Billy Joel and Styx, they were always innovating and coming up with different sounds. That's impressive.

RIP Rick. Thanks for the tunes.

'Preciate that.

I know he's familiar with, ahem,... Soft White Underbelly. Not sure if he's dipped into the Moody Blues yet. If not, I'll certainly pass along the recommendation.

He's primarily a (pardon the expression) pianist, so he loves The Doors and, as it turns out, a few of his peers are familiar as well.

Good music transcends.
