Bernie, I am so looking forward to the information and behind the scenes details of this truly historic occasion. Boats Against The Current, the album and most especially the song, are no doubt the crowning achievement of Eric's illustrious career. :D

I always felt like a boat against the current-striving for something that I never found, being struck against the rocks again and again. I always loved this album, and I think I wore out my copy.

Bernie,
I am as well looking forward to learning more about how "Boats" came together. It's really a shame that the rest of the world didn't catch on that this was a fantastic and exhilirating album to listen to and enjoy.

"Boats..." is a brilliant piece of work that has been giving more and more to me the more I listened.

The finding of Gatsby for its inspirational template is probably as close to a miracle as I could view, since these inspirations were there all the time, waiting for a way to get out.

Congratulations on the 30th Anniversary, and also, in advance, as it is coming soon as well, a very happy birthday to Eric. May there be many happy returns.
