I need­ed a lift today. This did the trick. Neil Finn–you know him from Crowd­ed House and Split Enz–plays a beau­ti­ful acoustic ver­sion of David Bowie’s “Heroes.” Enjoy.

    Thank you so much, you real­ly moved me. When I wwas lis­ten­ing to you play­ing this fan­tas­tic song, I thought of all the heroes work­ing day and night tak­ing care of all the coro­na-virus vic­tims. I and every­body else can­not thank them enough

    Bra­vo, mae­stro! Could­n’t hear Steve Stevens and his one-note lead. A favorite of mine per­formed incred­i­bly well
    Maybe a lit­tle up-tem­po’d ver­sion of “Lay­la” be “a real cool hand.”
