    radioflyer got a reaction from That_Bloke in Ended up having dinner with JW's doctor last night   
    I didn't dig, and doctor/patient confidentiality is to be respected, but he did say that he is warm, friendly and relaxed. 
    I didn't ask out of respect.

    I attended a dinner last night, and one of the guests (a neighbor of the host) happened to be the doctor for John Wiliams. We had a great conversation - and I was able to hip him to the more jazzy, early work of "Johnny Williams". 
    Most of the time living in Los Angeles is a drag, but on occasion the planets align just so and you get to have dinner and great conversation which would only happen here.

    I have to travel to Fresno for work every two weeks, and while the drive is arduous, it's made up for after discovering a vintage record store that has an embarrassment of John Williams original pressings. I don't think they know what treasures they have! 
    I'm giddy and wanted to share with other Williams lovers!!

    Delighted to find this at Record Surplus in Los Angeles last night. "1941" is not on Spotify. Sounds and looks fantastic!

    I was lucky enough to attend the Grammy Tribute last night. John Williams attended! He also gave a wonderful speech which paid tribute to the orchestras he has worked with. He was introduced by Gustav Dudamel. 
    The event was surprisingly underattended. We were invited to move to a closer section to fill in the seats for the camera. 
    Other attendees included Neil Diamond (who performed "Daydream Believer" with Micky Dolenz followed by "Sweet Caroline"), Emmylou Harris, The Meters and Sammy Hagar. Tina Turner accepted by video but nobody from Queen participated. We instead had to suffer through an uninspired "We Will Rock You" led by Sammy Hagar. 
    The main point though: John Williams was present and it was a wonderful evening. 
    I stole a few pictures but this it it because i didn't want to fall prey to their no camera policy.

    I was lucky enough to attend the Grammy Tribute last night. John Williams attended! He also gave a wonderful speech which paid tribute to the orchestras he has worked with. He was introduced by Gustav Dudamel. 
    The event was surprisingly underattended. We were invited to move to a closer section to fill in the seats for the camera. 
    Other attendees included Neil Diamond (who performed "Daydream Believer" with Micky Dolenz followed by "Sweet Caroline"), Emmylou Harris, The Meters and Sammy Hagar. Tina Turner accepted by video but nobody from Queen participated. We instead had to suffer through an uninspired "We Will Rock You" led by Sammy Hagar. 
    The main point though: John Williams was present and it was a wonderful evening. 
    I stole a few pictures but this it it because i didn't want to fall prey to their no camera policy.
