      I commented on this on The (Old) New Coffee Room.

      I wonder how much was just improvised.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        The movie "What Happened, Miss Simone?" is worth watching. I think it's on Netflix. She used to do this insertion of classical pieces quite a bit - her original ambition was to be a classical pianist.

        I was only joking

          Very cool. That playing is so effortless.

          Education is extremely important.
