He was alone playing piano and singing, had no idea who this gorgeous blue eyed soul man was but he captured me, like an ethereal light was emitting from him, was probably 30ft away and couldn’t take my eyes off him.

It's a really cool photo of him. Where was he playing and singing by himself? I take it, you don't mean a concert. Lucky you.

      Hola Yam Perez,yo en octubre de 2022 viendo estos grandiosos videos,yo viví esa época de manera inconsciente pues apenas tenía 5añitos y soy la más pequeña de 5 hermanos y todos varones,así que lo único que recuerdo desde que tengo uso de razón es este gran rock y esta gran música con intérpretes memorables,nadie entiende porque me gusta esta música pero era lo que se oía en casa y soy tan feliz de ahora poder disfrutarlos y yo misma entender porque me gusta tanto,pues fue la mejor época.

    My buddy and I called him the Spaz, but lovingly. We saw him with Leon Russell at the Fillmore West before we knew who Leon was. Great times. Graduated high school in 1966 and lived the high life until 1978 when I cut my hair and went all 9 to 5, wife, kids, house in the burbs.

Great music, that whole era is unsurpassed as far as Im concerned...it was odd being four or five years old surrounded by a bunch of "out there" long haired adults, way different time period....but the music! Great music!
