Farewell, Bill
I had the opportunity to meet Mr Rieflin only once after a Crafty Guitarists event in 2014. This was a few weeks after the incredible Humans/Slow Music shows at the Triple Door (and a few months before witnessing the 7-headed Krim for the first time in October of that year). He was kind enough to take a moment acknowledging my praise, and my comparisons of his recent work with the Slow Music show back in 2006. I felt bad as I had pulled him away from another group of friends and well-wishers, but he was generous with his time and thoughts. He seemed to have a sharp wit and insight that suggested a unique lifeview. Thank you, Bill, for your contributions to music in so many forms. Fly well as you take wing from this world.
