everybody's at the lakeshore cabin, so while you're putting
on sunscreen and insect repellant, I'm sending you this, and hope you enjoy
it. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Courier New">Katia and Marielle Labècque /
harpsichords</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New"></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New">One summer night on a blanket I saw and heard the
Labècque Sisters bang out "Carnival of the Animals" on two pianos, and I've been
a huge fan ever since. (I particularly love "The Tortoise.") </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New"></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New">I've been rediscovering composer/guitarist
Mahavishnu John McClaughlin, and a few decades ago, he and Katia were married.
That must have been a richly musical household. The Sisters and McClaughlin
issued one or two CDs of McClaughlin compositions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New"></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New">Anyway most of you are JS Bach freaks, so enjoy
and let me know what you think of this "cover." I'm specifically NOT asking
how it compares to The Master, but if anyone has such thoughts, toss them in,
too. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New"></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New">But look, even The Master only had two hands,
beautiful as they were. He must have been at a disadvantage competing
against a four-hand act.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face="Courier New">Yesterday my doctor told me about her
weekend, installing her daughter in the freshman dorm at a Pennsylvania
college. So summer's over, dudes, back to work.</FONT></DIV>
