You probably don't know the name

David Mason died about 2 weeks ago.

I'm sure he gave you goosebumps, or made you happy, or made you sing out loud.

He was the trumpet player that played the wonderful solo in the song "Penny Lane" by the Beatles.

You remember it? Don't you?

Where were you when you listened to it?

I was in college and other than that I don't know. Probably drinking beer. I think I always liked that song.

I didn't either. I remember darkened dorm rooms with candles going. Yes, probably having a little buzz going on.
