<div>Very well said, Mary! Too much gossip on f_minor
recently, and too much pompous self-advertising.</div>
<div>My question is: where has the music gone? Maybe we should
be more concerned with Glenn's originality, his outstanding
contribution to contemporsry music-making, the depth of his
thought - often even when he was apparently joking, than with his
personal life, his weaknesses, and his oddities.</div>

<font size="+1">Your phone rings late at night but it's not a family
emergency, it's Gould. Some bloody nerve.<br>
<br>
There's not much to be gleaned from the 'new' Gould film on GG's
loquaciousness. There's not a lot to be gleaned at all. The film skims
flat stones across calmed waters and it seems to me that the whole
point<br>
of the exercise was to elucidate Gould's heterosexuality.<br>
<br>
As for Gould and Twitter and the rest: Don't you get it? He loved the
human voice. Loved it so much that he sought out trunk lines. Loved it
long distance as well as whispered into his weirdly formed right ear.
The man was so utterly attuned to sound that it makes me outraged at
the nonsense people are trying to make of his 'philosophy', trying to
turn it all into some early IT gospel.<br>
<br>
Gould had more in common with Cocteau than with Ballmer.<br>
