It was Raphael who had to bring sheets in from home to cover the windows so that no one would see Gould playing. I have all of that in the book, but the one thing Raphael said that wasn't in the book was that the sheets were too short and left some of the window exposed, which made Gould worry that people would peek in from underneath (i.e. get down on their hands and knees to see him play). That, it turns out, was an unfounded fear on Gould's part. Well, Raphael talked a little bit about what it was like to listen to Gould try out the Yamaha that was in the store window.
