Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Prostate Cancer / September 2007Hughie On The Organ
I have a 5:13 MP3 of Hugh Kearnley on his favorite instrument. He can still speak to us...... I'd be glad to send a copy as an e-mail attachment to whomever desires it. Caution: It's a large file, 4.8 MB. Regards, Steve J Vive sencillamente. Ama generosamente. Implicate profundamente. Habla amablemente. Deja el resto a Dios... Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God... -- Homer Thompson >I have a 5:13 MP3 of Hugh Kearnley on his favorite instrument. > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > >Steve J I'd love to get a copy, Steve. Because of the file size, perhaps it would make sense to post it on http://in.solit.us/, a free filesharing site. That would let those interested download it using their browser, instead of using e-mail, which is often problematic for such large downloads. My e-mail address is larry_sabo at hotmail dot com.

Larry has a good point. If someone can host the file on a web space or using the one Larry suggested, it would be nice. Many email programs reject attachment greater than a couple megabytes. If anyone agreed to do this, please post the link. Thanks. >> I'd love to get a copy, Steve.

If anyone agreed to >do this, please post the link. Thanks. The site I mentioned looks very appropriate for this. One can register with an e-mail address and then upload songs, videos, etc. and tag them as public. That way, anyone can download them without having to register. That puts them in the public domain, I guess, so if that's not desired, after uploading, one can send e-mails to those who ask for them and they will get an e-mail with a link to the files for download directly from the web. Haven't tried it but would be happy to if I can get a copy of the file. Larry On September 27, Larry Sabo replied: > I'd love to get a copy, Steve.

If it doesn't work, let me know and I'll try sending it as an e-mail attachment, which I know works :-) Regards, Steve J Computer-challenged I wrote: > If it doesn't work, let me know and I'll try sending it as an e-mail > attachment, which I know works :-) Oops, neglected to give the file ID. Title is "Safe Medley mp3." Description is "Hugh Kearnely on Organ." Should be in "Music" file. Steve J I don't find it, Steve. Am I too technically challenged? Thanks >I wrote: > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > >Steve J Burney dot Huff at Mindspring dot com No Burney, I can't find it on there either. Used the search function and no joy either. Perhaps Larry Sabo could upload it?? I am not too familiar with these sort of things. Cheers.....Heather >I don't find it, Steve. Am I too technically challenged? Thanks > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Burney dot Huff at Mindspring dot com I'm usually very wary of dipping my computer in unknown websites, but *that* was well worth the risk. Picturing a huge, superficially gruff, physically powerful military man playing like that on that instrument is just overwhelming. I never cried over my father's death, and have felt no guilt over it, but Hughie ... well ... Hughie deserved and got my tears. But they were tears of joy in the opportunity he had and shared with us. He must have been quivering to the core when playing that magnificent machine and every time since then when he thought about it. The man packed more life and love into his years than ten more ordinary men. I.P. BTW, when you send it by email, would you include me, please? My email address should be included in the signature below. If not, it's burney dot huff at mindspring dot com Thanks >I wrote: > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > >Steve J Burney dot Huff at Mindspring dot com >I wrote: > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > >Steve J Hi Steve, Sorry, but I couldn't find it. Another option is to send it via e-mail using www.yousendit.com, but that would require you to do so for each requestor. Posting it as I originally suggested, in the public domain, removes that onerous task. Heather syas she has a copy and will send one to me; I too will try to post it in the public domain. Cheers, Larry OK, I gave it a shot as well, and this link *should* take you to it. Let me know if it downloads OK. It is 4.8 meg, not 5.12, not that that matters. My User name on there is "Figgs" and I entitled it "Hugh Kearnley" and the file name is "Baptismal 2". http://in.solit.us/archives/show/71267 Hope that works........Heather >>I have a 5:13 MP3 of Hugh Kearnley on his favorite instrument. >> [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > Cheers, > Larry Well, dammit....I can't get it to start downloading either, but I am now leaving it in Larry Sabo's very capable hands. I am not "up" on FTP or this type of website and he is. Cheers.....and I did manage to send it out to Larry and also to Burney. So if all else fails, I can do that for others as well.

Larry Hi Heather, It downloads from the link you provided fine and plays fine, as well. Thanks for doing that! Anyone should be able to download it from that link (http://in.solit.us/archives/show/71267).

Talented guy  SignatureHT This is beautiful music and I play it on Quick Time loop to relax. Hugh Kearney was quite a man and will be remembered. Thanks to Heather, Steve Jordan and others for making the music available.

I knew I did have it, but had put it in a strange place. C'est la vie. Now those that wish to hear Hughie gloriously playing the organ can do so. He was an amazing man......I so wish we could have had him with us for many more years. Heather On September 27, Heather replied to me: (ka-snip) > Now those that wish to hear Hughie gloriously playing the organ can > do so. He was an amazing man......I so wish we could have had him > with us for many more years. Silly me, I failed to mark the upload "public." As an experiment, I uploaded again and marked it correctly. Lo! "Medley mp3" on the home page. And about Hughie: There was never any possibility that I would meet him, but I nevertheless felt very close to this good man. Was the "coronary occlusion" related to his horribly metastatic PCa? I'll never know, but I'm told that it's possible. Regards, Steve J "The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong in the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry." -- Ernest Hemingway, author and broken man who committed suicide in 1961. > Heather Got it...

Reminds me of "Nearer, my God, to thee" Might not be the same hymn, but nearer to God he is. J Nearer, my God, to thee Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! E'en though it be a cross that raiseth me, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee. Refrain: Nearer, my God, to thee, nearer to thee! Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down, darkness be over me, my rest a stone. yet in my dreams I'd be nearer, my God to thee. Refrain There let the way appear, steps unto heav'n; all that thou sendest me, in mercy given; angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to thee. Refrain Then, with my waking thoughts bright with thy praise, out of my stony griefs Bethel I'll raise; so by my woes to be nearer, my God, to thee. Refrain Or, if on joyful wing cleaving the sky, sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I'll fly, still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to thee. Refrain There in my Father's home, safe and at rest, there in my Savior's love, perfectly blest; age after age to be, nearer my God to thee. Refrain Words: Sarah Adams, 1841 Hello to all who made this music available to us. Hugh surely had a God given talent playing that instrument. What a blessing. I believe the songs he was playing were "Safe in the Arms of Jesus" by Fanny J. Crosby, I didn't recognize the arrangement of "There Shall Be Showers of Blessing" by Daniel W. Whittle. How appropriate the songs were given Hugh's last post. He was surely contemplating the end of this life and stepping into eternity. May we all be ready to do the same. The words to "Safe in the Arms of Jesus": "Safe in the arms of Jesus, Safe on His gentle breast, There by His love o'ershaded, Sweetly my soul shall rest." "Hark! 'tis the voice of angels, Borne in a song to me, Over the fields of glory, Over the jasper sea." Refrain: "Safe in the arms of Jesus, Safe on His gentle breast, There by His love o'ershaded, Sweetly my soul shall rest." Stanza 2: "Safe in the arms of Jesus, Safe from corroding care, Safe from the world's temptations, Sin cannot harm me there." "Free from the blight of sorrow, Free from my doubts and fears; Only a few more trials, Only a few more tears!" Refrain Stanza 3: "Jesus, my heart's dear refuge, Jesus has died for me; Firm on the Rock of Ages, Ever my trust shall be." "Here let me wait with patience, Wait till the night is o'er; Wait till I see the morning Break on the golden shore." Refrain Thanks, Heather. I got the file by email and can now download it, as well. Hugh was really a talented person! I have been a member of this club for over 12 years and have participated in this newsgroup, on and off, for that time. I don't recall seeing such a large and warm reaction from this group when other members have passed. Hugh's gained a lot of great friends in his nine monts, or so, of participation in the group. Quite a tribute to a remarkable man!

For clarification: the time is 5 minutes 13 seconds. Steve J For anybody who wants to know what Hughie is actually playing. 1) "Safe in the Arms of Jesus" 2) "Beautiful Savior" (his "interpretations") That was small potatoes for H. He played very difficult classical pieces, like Mozart's "Fantasia". > I have a 5:13 MP3 of Hugh Kearnley on his favorite instrument. > > He can still speak to us...... I listened to the piece. I thought he played it very well. Hugh was an unusual man, very rough and very smooth, very simple and very complex, very elemental and very sophisticated. I sometimes thought that he liked to present the rough, simple, elemental side of himself and reserve the smooth, complex and sophisticated side to himself, or perhaps to those he knew well. In some ways that may be the opposite of what most of us do. He was absolutely an interesting man. No doubt about that. He certainly enriched the newsgroup with his humor, his recipes, his hang it all out communication style, and even his mood swings. I expect that he lived an intense and an intensely interesting life. I expect that his peaks were very high and his valleys very low. Although I only knew him through this newsgroup, I'm glad to have known him. Farewell Hughie. Godspeed. Alan |
