    I enjoy just about anything by Bob Seger. I love the lyrics. One thing in particular that stands out is Paul Harris on the piano. I just took time today to see who was playing piano in “Against the Wind.” I loved the piano arrangement. It’s hard to describe the unique sound in this piece. Paul’s masterful command of the keyboard is akin to the sound of a rippiing brook cascading over the rocks, or a tide that ebbs and flows. He has perfect timing and knows precisely when to pause. I took piano lessons from a woman that always reminded me about the importance of paying attention to rests when reading sheet music. Her pointer came down on my hand more than once to remind me (just a gentle tap). The piano accompaniment in this song is soulful and hauntingly beautiful.
