   You're welcome. We can always dream.   
   The Jarrett song is called 'Long as You Know You're Living Yours, and it's   
   on the Belonging-album (and probably Lime Wire). Great stuff, check it out,   
   it'a actually very interesting to hear how the Dan took the riff (and the   
   chords, I suppose) and ran with it for a couple of more yards. Be   
   interesting to hear someone chord literate's take on that.
