 This is a piece that I wrote and dedicated to my cousin. He was killed in a street, murdered in a street fight in Philadelphia at the age of 15. I was about the same age and I remember seeing him on a Friday and finding out that he had been killed on a Monday. As I say, he was my cousin and his proper name was Robert Mincer. However, everybody called him Steam and that's the name of this piece, Steam. But before we play this, I have to say this is one of my favorite pieces in the world. I've been playing with Archie and it's so apropos right now because of the unnecessary killings going on in the world. So I asked him if we could play this song, not just because it resonates with my heart but because it's a special memory for him as well. Thank you.
