He couldn't DO anything without his oxygen tube (like drive to the store or church etc.)
Goddamn! That's sounds terrible!
He finally gave up and died about 2019.
Jeez, and the melancholy just keeps coming. A loss indeed. Was he a pianist like you too?
No but he was a damned good guitarist and could learn a song by ear in a second, I suspect he had perfect pitch
Perfect pitch huh? Most likely yeah.
Lol, I always envied people like that actually. Lucky bastards.
Ha! And then there's the rest of us, who have to settle for less like relative pitch.
Oh well...
I sometimes think I have perfect pitch, but in practical usage, it is more like extremely long pitch memory.
I've talked with some who had perfect pitch, who said it was a curse; imagine trying to play music or listen to it being played, when every instrument you touch was SLIGHTLY (or more) out of tune, it would be like fingernails on a blackbaord
