The mention of the word "music" was magic, Ceili. I have had so many male friends with whom I sat up all night playing and listening to music. Sometimes we argued over it, sometimes we just listened quietly. I laughed at my girl friend one night. She loved Amazing Grace. Her husband was talking about some of the charts that he had written and played, and she turned to him and said:
Well, anyone who can do that can surely play Amazing Grace on the piano. Heh heh!..but she hated listening to his jazz stuff. I, on the other hand, loved both. Guess it's cause I could play Amazing Grace on the piano.
and speaking of "friends", the oakman has been the only male on this thread, and he set us all straight. Love it!
