Subject: RE: Obit: John Martyn (29 January 2009)
I have had my good cry now. John was really the only muscian I revered, for far too many reasns to go into. We all just assume that one's life goes on from day to day. John managed to touch our hearts so delightfully and vigorusly. Rare is such a gift. I guess I don't have to keep worrying about him any longer. My heart is all broken at this news. Little pieces have fallen down around. Why is it that the truly talented among us never achieve rightful recognition while they are living and struggling? Anyone with half a brain should have been obviously stunned by a man of John's talent!
I feel blessed to have loved him and his music. Life is just gonna feel a little bit colder and lonelier, I guess
