    Dear Mitch,
 My partner and I couldn’t watch this wonderful episode live as we are in another time zone. I hope you’ll also have live shows at an earlier hour.
    I’m so happy that you rebelled against your professor’s moralistic stance. What a sad way to judge music.
 Bacharach had more luck. His teacher Darius Milhaud told him not to be afraid of writing lovely tunes. Did you watch the documentary about Ennio Morricone? He also struggled with his professor. 
Thank you for the lovely talk and the beautiful music.

      Thanks as always for tuning in. I didn't get into a much depth as I could have about that professor but it really connects with the whole matter of eras and historical time This is something I have been thinking a lot about. The 80s was a period of intense musical camps as I said, like electric versus straight-ahead and that one professor just reflected the times. Most people thought of Herbie Hancock like that; that he had his good music which was more pure and then his other stuff which was popular. The more I think about it this seems a theme of the era. Of course times are very different now but maybe there is still some of that. But I am happy to have developed in that era because there was something magical about being able to be so close to the source of so many musical greats nad people seemed to have s strong sense of musical identity and therefore commitment. I'm glad to hear you mention Darius Milhaud and Burt. And of course Dave Brubeck was a student of Milhaud. Thanks for listening!
