Add Chord Cutest (DAC) to Bluesound Node or purchase HiFi Rose RS150BDAC

Ken Fritz article
I just read the article with half a tear in my eye because I already knew the story and it’s sad ending. But it really makes you think about your life choices and how they can affect others. Rest in peace Ken Fritz.

Another piano player of note is Phineas Newborn.  Listening to No Moon At All now, but there are many others to choose from.
