| Al Jarreau and his Guardian Angels |
I hate this period. Not the season of the year, no.
No, this time of life when we see necessarily extinguished these great figures in the shade which it has a little built. Musicians, writers, photographers, actors, filmmakers, etc.. Those we experienced when we were children and they were already home, in the prime of life and at the top of their Art . Of course, we see at the same time raised new talents of younger, but we will survive an accident necessarily. But I feel that it does not compensate.
this era that sometimes starts early, if only one becomes infatuated with artists already disappeared and we become aware of this fact. At one time we Foam concerts and armed with a sense of urgency somewhat cynical. Sometimes this sense of imminence was justified: I am pleased to have attended performances of Miles Davis and Serge Gainsbourg, but with little, unfortunately. Sometimes, fortunately, we were in the most total error. Sometimes, though, I lowered my guard, and destiny prevailed far too soon those who had dazzled on stage sometimes. Where are you, Michael Brecker, Zawinul, Petrucciani ... ?
And then it gets carried away. If I listened, Ich bin ein Flatlander become a permanent obituary, as tributes to not lacking in recent times.
Last summer, it was thought to Al Jarreau, after his discomfort Barcelonnette. Since, as evidenced in his humorous newspaper he is doing much better, and started to groove harder. And recently, it Nile Rodgers, which announced a new concern .
