Isn't it funny how you can work alongside someone for years then learn that they are actually a most amazing person ?
I have been working with a dev for a few years, he is the ageing rocker type - sex drugs and sausage rolls stuff. He worked with Noddy Holder and is on first name terms with Roger Waters..etc.
So I rang him at home to ask some techy stuff and we got around to talking about jazz and stuff, then the piano , then classical stuff. Then he starts playing, one handed some Beethoven. he is good, very good
So I asked him if he could pick out melodies easily, oh yes. gimme one.
er..Bohemian Rhapsody
So he starts singing it, to get the key. Holey Moley, he sings like an angel. then he gets the tune, all the while holding the phone
Do Mull of Kintyre
Romeo and Juliet
What a talent, what a skill. a fantastic bloke as well
