6 i+ g1 F5 M; m& [* T某天無聊，趁機oraganize我iTunes的目錄，發覺原來自己的Canto Pop taste 根本離不開霑叔和輝哥的影響。我得承認，他們對我的music taste是有深遠的啟蒙。(雖然現在我每次聽Canto Pop都有種被強暴的感覺) 我甚至可以講，霑叔收爐後叫我完全投入John Coltrane and some classical gurus. 今日我慶幸當年作了這個decision.$ ]- \/ H* q: ]2 q9 q

' k; J8 x  e7 Y( k# b當然霑叔也不是完人，某情度上他的感情生活是一個mess. You can say he is happy with Winnie at last, but the regrets have given him too much burden to enjoy the present.6 Z) A* h; Z8 v3 w

我不認同霑叔的life philosophy, but I admire his 魄力和遠見。6 C4 d6 _0 _6 X& O, Y9 x

3 ?8 {- w6 k$ w( b! T- K4 c: E九十年代中，當垃圾歌開始污染我們的music industry。其事霑叔可以豁出去，大大聲protest, 搶救我們的耳朵和靈魂。但他選擇prepare 讀Ph.D.，研久一個主流媒體沒有興趣的題目 – 粵曲。" i, k7 h6 g8 k

我對 粵曲認識不多，不適合comment on 他的thesis, 但我知霑叔用了自己一生最寶貴的資源  - 他對music嘅passion and knowledge，去做了一生最important的事 – pass on his knowledge to the later generation./ h9 w: B! ^  v0 ]

成工是一定要付代價的。幸運只是一部車子，if you don’t know how to drive…you do not go anywhere.6 x: V$ V0 W6 c; w+ U

我會open 我的iTunes （BTW, theyare all legal song copies), listen to a few songs and quietly evaluating how I am doing with my aspirations.
