Rest In Peace Simeon Coxe

Simeon Coxe, electronic music pioneer and one half of the legendary psychedelic duo Silver Apples, died on Tuesday (9/8). He was 82.

I was lucky to catch them play live many years ago.

Some of my favorite photos of Simeon with The Silver Apples playing in NYC in 1968 with his homebrewed synthesizer called Simeon.

You and I Could walk together
You and I Could talk together
You and I Could have each other
You and I Could touch each other
But we don’t have time for the little things.
No, there just ain’t room for the little things, why?
You and I Could fly together
You and I Could hide together
You and I Could see each other
You and I Could love each other
But we don’t have time for the little things.
No, we don’t have time for the little things, because
Life is full of important things.
Life is full of necessary things.
Life is full of big machines
And there ain’t no room for the little things.
No there just ain’t room for the little things, why?
