Oct. 24th, 2009 10:18 pmI have to offer thanks to
mocha_mephooki who made me a gift of a Pink Floyd live double album, Pulse. I'm listening to it now for the first time as I clean up the computer room.
I am awed and inspired. Stephen Hawking's voice is on the fifth track of the first disc, Keep Talking. "It doesn't have to be like this. All we need to do is make sure we keep talking." He's a hero of mine, like Einstein and Tesla, and it was astounding to unexpectedly hear him, amidst the music. I'd read that his voice was in one of their pieces, but I'd kind of forgotten about it.
Speaking of people I hugely admire, did you know that Douglas Adams played live on stage with Pink Floyd? It was a sort of gift to him on his forty-second birthday. Watch the video here. Blessings on another person, no longer with us, who helped to shape my life.
And Mocha; thanks again. I love it. *hugs*
