I was listening to Bix Beiderbecke's "In a Mist" last night and thought of my son. It made mme very sad that he is not here now, and that he missed so much in life, and that the courts took him from me to be poisoned by his mother and then gave him back when I could do nothing despite all me trying.
Who is Bix Beiderbecke? A cornet player and pianist in the 20's a seminal figure in jazz. Mostly known as a cornet player, he also composed several very modern sounding piano pieces including "In the Dark", :Candlelight" and "Flashes". They are all on YouTube if you wan to listen to them. I have "In a Mist" here. I think it sounds better played slower, but I am putting the original 78 rpm recording here
