1st !! 😄

Music is the gift that makes life worth living.☮️🎶
"I'm gonna go get the papers, get the papers."
Anything can be a musical instrument if you are brave enough.
The Police was Stuart's band. Just saying. I love him.
lol is this a joke
I saw Stewart in a cab last summer in NY. This is a very innovative, charming idea to incorporate animals
Stewart has lived a life and I love how he has embraced it, fully. Jealous, really.
Copeland is the man!! I went to my local record store for Stewart Copeland's The Rhythmatist but much to my disappointment it was unavailable. I am still hunting for it for the next couple of days!
Gold
Awesome 👏🏻 ❤❤❤❤
I thought I would miss CBS as I won’t watch it once Corbett is gone. After watching this episode of 60 minutes I realized that I won’t be missing anything. This was terrible. 😣.
Thought this was interesting
The best 👍👍
Stewart Copeland turns his studio into a library. I would have watched that.
Phenomenal gifted drummer, musician, and composer. Wild Concerto is more than a masterpiece, it’s life itself, and a clarion call to care, honor, and protect Mother Earth. Martyn Stewart devoted his life to recording those fragile sounds, and it was carved out in the rock of ages for him to connect with Stewart Copeland to bring them to musical life with music. It’s beyond despair, knowing that some of the animal sounds we heard, are already extinct… our priorities should be in doing what we can… every country united to save them.
Bring back the great Stewart Copeland 2017 opera The Invention of Morel!!!
I like the last quote… "I want to be the Jimi Hendrix of Timpani"!!! Could you imagine him setting those drum heads on fire? 🔥 It would one Hell of a finale!!! 😊
60 Minutes sucks; however, Stewart Copeland does not.
Somewhere, Sting is laughing his head off.
