JT Slowing? Where's Ron?

The answers to these two questions are closely connected, as both relate to this site's founder and operator, and my dad, Ron Thorne.
As some of you already know, the end of 2017 brought on health worries, with a sinister, life-threatening bout with pneumonia that hit him in November. After a lengthy stay in the hospital, he was discharged just in time to be able to spend Christmas at home with his family, including all his kids and grandkids, and since his return, a full recovery has been his day-in day-out ambition and focus of his energies. I should add that he is making excellent progress.
This effort has necessarily meant a temporary lull in his activity on the site. However, he is still monitoring and posting on occasion, so please do your best to support Ron in his recovery by filling in the gaps and adding your own posts, or even a word of support here. Easy to do, right?
Or, if you just want to post what you're listening to lately, or suggest some listening for Ron, go for it.
Here is a band I stumbled across today. A jazz trio of piano, cello and drums based in Germany, called Trio Metrik.
