I listen to music every day. I was listening to this on the freeway while wondering why a car was turned the wrong direction on the opposite lane of the freeway today.

Glenn Gould said something like recording was democratic in that it gave everyone an equal seat at the concert hall. Not that it can replace live music, but who can get to Carnigie Hall where Mr. Bird played once btw.
Music has been a haven for me and I am glad to be well enough to listen again. For a long while I could not. Think of the refuge that music has provided for all sorts of folks. Elvis, Michael Jackson, Janis Joplin, you can add anyone here no matter what you may think of the way they may live their lives.
