I was there in the Shahanian room with him at that 1987ish NY HiFi show. Anybody there will never forgeet the experience. He just sat there playing music for us, uninterrupted with sales pitches. If asked he briefly would answer a question. Mainly he spoke about the music he had played or would play next. People just sat there enthralled...blissed out sort of at the feet of a beneficent "guru" who gave us music that soothed our souls.
