Remembrance of things past can be a blessing or a curse, depending on what the mind recalls. I am thankful then that I do not have to worry about hyperthymesia!
Anyway, primarily thanks to S, and partly because it is almost a year since the school reunion, in the process of thinking about a few classmates I ended up recalling how Prasad often entertained us with his percussion skills. With his fingers and palms rhythmically beating against the rudimentary wooden desk, he easily entertained us with popular beats.
BoneyM's Rasputin and were his specialty, and we often requested him too:
The other one was a Hindi song, which was a trailblazer in a number of ways:
Prasad was not at the reunion; I am sure he is enjoying the beat somewhere!
Ah, memories!

Ah memories indeed. Maybe its a sign of the years - in the younger days I didn't give much thought to our school, but now every interaction is tinged with nostalgia. Especially since our reunion last year.
Boney M ; Oh Yes - the transition from Night Flight to Venus to Rasputin ........... Waaaaah !
