Prince is Now Gone -- But Not the Music

When a celebrity passes -- the grief is public!  Everyone remembers and cherishes their own link to the one passing -- the music, a song, an event, a memory.

Prince was the kind of iconoclastic icon that defied our sense of him.  His special music mix involved many genres, styles, moments, and especially lyrics -- that will live on in our heads til we pass. That is what "art" does for all of us. It extends our joys. It consummates and completes our own small moments.

Rest in Peace --- Prince. We will play your music and live it -- for as long as we are alive.
