Do you have any favorite piano music you love, or a favorite pianist?
Yes, Billy Joel is an amazing piano player/artist!
He is! But, you know, one of my favorite songs by him is the a capella number, The Longest Time.
That is one of my favorites too. Do you play professionally?
I used to play guitar professionally, but not piano. I still teach a bit when I have students.
Wonderful! Playing piano (or guitar) can make your brain stronger.
That's what they say! Also, studying a foreign language and (I think) learning math.
Very true. Who is your favorite classical pianist? I like Mozart. Requiem in D Minor is a masterpiece.
For piano music, I like Mozart, Schubert, Schumann, Brahms...
All good choices! How about guitar? Jimi Hendrix is my choice. The Wind Cries Mary is teriffic.
In rock, Hendrix, Clapton, Alvin Lee, Jeff Beck, Brian May, etc...
Clapton for sure. Brian May is awesome too...very underrated in my opinion.
Do you know Alvin Lee's work with Ten Year After?
Yes, he is very good. He got a lot of recognition from playing at Woodstock.
He deserved every bit of recognition. Died in 2013, I understand.
Correct..He had complications during a surgery
That's a shame. He was working up to the time of his death.
He did. His last album was  Still on the Road to Freedom about a year prior to his death.
I'm not familiar with it. I've lost touch with Rock and Blues a bit over the last decade or so...
