...well, who knows," says his brother. "He has said he was scared. A lot of people deliberately do things that they are afraid of." He had always written a lot ("Writing is so dignified," he says, rolling his eyes and dragging out the so like a saxophonist playing Blue Moon).

Some maintain that this “telos” was “Revolver,” others will swear to you that it was “Dark Side of the Moon.” We know better. Our critical scopes are so broad as to encompass more music than we could listen to if we were to devote every minute of the day to such an exercise, and every year we find more that challenges our expectations, turns on its forebears...
