It’s safe to say I’ve had better weeks. Finding out that the tumour growing on the top of my right lung was essentially inoperable did not, it must be said, make for an overly enjoyable Wednesday afternoon. ‘Essentially’ in that it is operable, but any operation would require the removal of my right arm from the shoulder down. Which is not the most palatable concept I’ve ever been presented with. So instead I’ve opted for more chemo, and the long-term uncertainty that comes with leaving a hopefully dormant tumour inside your body. Fun times.
And I was kinda down about it all until today. But this morning I rolled out of bed in the early afternoon, after a good night’s sleep, with the sharp sunlight of a beautiful autumnal afternoon spilling through my door, and then I played this tune, and I had a smile on my face and I was dancing and all of a sudden everything seemed that much more achievable.
High praise indeed.

I guess there’s no real pretense at exclusivity or novelty here, and I’m still not convinced you’d be able to play this in a set. But it’s just a beautiful tune that had an impact, and I kinda wanted to share that with people. Consider it a rare, but rewarding ‘get to know your blog authors’ post. Peace my friends,
