Are we on the right track or the wrong track? It’s a question and a concern for many many people these days. Did I have the answers? Did I offer words of wisdom to smooth and soothe the anxiety surrounding us? Of course not! Instead I did what I always do. I exploited that anxiety to fill two hours with music. But you gotta admit: it was some damned good music.
