Thank Jack. I saw Richard Thompson from the stadium cheap seats do “Oops I did it again.” Oops, I did it again, talking about myself. Must curtail.
I saw that tour also, also from the cheap seats, in the balcony of a large church in Montclair, New Jersey.
Sweet. 2001? I really don’t remember other songs. I think he’s the only practitioner of Sufism that I’ve ever read about.
