I would like to dedicate today’s ride to Esbjörn Svensson – a pianist, jazz musician, composer and leader of the great Swedish band E.S.T who died in a sea diving accident last weekend.
Beautiful and original music is hard to come by these days and E.S.T was responsible for creating some heartfelt and exciting new music that was gaining more and more popularity around the world.
E.S.T were successfully crossing over from smoky jazz clubs to rock arenas and concert halls everywhere they played and all without gimmicks and celebrity that many lesser acts need to gain fame in this day and age.
Life just isn’t fair sometimes – especially when such people leave quickly and before their time.
I still haven’t worked it out but certain things aren’t easy to accept.
RIP Esbjörn Svensson with deepest respect. (1964 – 2008)
