Couldn't agree more, go Maurice! I sooo love the piano on those pieces and I do believe no one wants the next album to be a real 'just voice and piano' album more than me... Can't even bear to listen to RTS anymore :( “Those early songs of yours like “The Money Song” and “The Bela Song” have an attractive sophistication that your later piano accompaniments don’t.” Couldn’t agree more, go Maurice!

Fascinating stuff! I've been infatuated with his music for a few years now and enjoyed reading some of your analyses. For me, his masterpiece is "Dinner at Eight", but there are so many others I love also. Hi Roger,
