Were you old enough to appreciate the significance?    

Hope I'm asking that correctly.....   :laugh:

Yes......I was just 7 but I remember seeing the Vatican and having a Coke at a cafe at St Peter's Square.....my dad was career USAF and we were on his 30day leave on the way to his next post in North Africa.....

The base is no longer there...but I remember laying on my back in our yard watching the bombers take off and land..the whole ground shook.......

While the world is starting to burn.....thought I'd bump this powerful Albinoni's rendition of Adagio in G Minor

Includes a beautiful slide show too!

NOTE: read the Cellist of Sarajevo its based on a true story of during the war in Serbia a man would walk out into the street and play this song on the cello every day each day for the amount of people who were killed in a mortar shelling this is the song he plays.

Truly beautiful and soothing.  Hope you find the time to enjoy it.

This piece is heard in several soundtrack music for movies.

It is the background in True Romance...in the scene between Dennis Hopper and Christopher Walken.....unforgettable.      :beer:
