Sweet Grace & Danger

I haven't posted for a few days. Why? Because I managed to trap or bruise a nerve in my left shoulder and it's ruined my sleep patterns, waking me up at all hours of the night and thus causing me to feel very tired and not a little grumpy. Last night I slept all night (well, until 5 a.m. which is good). My hand is continuing to heal well, still pretty painful if I attempt to use it, which I shouldn't but sometimes a chap just can't help it. I have no arthritic pain in what's left of that joint at all - so looking good then.

I have always loved rock music and guitar playing in particular. Recently a mate of mine brought to my attention the sad demise of Davy Graham - a folk artist with whom I was not really familiar, at least that's what I thought until I checked out his website and listened to some of his stuff at which point I discovered that he was familiar to me, I just didn't know it. Of course a lot of the people that were/are my musical heroes have had personal demons to battle in their lives and often this has brought about an early death. Yesterday one of the real greats left us. If you want to know why musicians battle those demons check this out:



Thanks John.
