The Grateful Dead 3rd March 1968

It just blows my mind that is completely possible for me to listen to the Dead’s Goodbye to the Haight show from this day in 1968. What an amazing thing that is. God bless the tapers. Hell fucking yeah.

(Honestly I’m wasted as a lawyer).

Chicken thighs on the bone, pan fried, onions, mushrooms, stock, wine, paprika, soured cream. New potatoes. Charred broccoli. And more wine.

Clapton fan though.

Documentary maker Tony Palmer was a devoted chronicler of sixties rock. The seventies stuff he wasn't quite so keen on.

I see what you did there!

Happy St David's Day to all.
Today, on our family facetime, Mary was recounting her school eisteddfod a.k.a. 'The Mary Hopkin Show' as she was kept very busy singing in most of the numbers.
Here she is in 1970 becoming a bard at the National Eisteddfod.

A screenshot of a conversation I had with someone who stole my photo in which I ask them to not steal.

Part 2 of my conversation with someone who stole a photo of mine.

Pages like these are awful, stealing other people's work and uploading it themselves. A common theme among them is getting defensive and blocking anyone who calls them out. Just got blocked by this one after asking them to take down my photo. Repost buttons exist for a reason. Avoid aggregates.

👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

Congratulations, pal.

who made this

Wild to say this after years of carnage in Gaza and bombing a school in Iran

Ooof

I do. There was an official release for about 10 minutes on iTunes to protect the copyright. Then they disappeared. Was it just before Ryan’s book came out, perhaps?

That is too close to be a coincidence. But who knows?
And Morrison is so obstinate about analysis of his work too.
I had a quick skim through Ryan Walsh’s book on Astral Weeks, but no relevant Bowie references.

For all of you concerned about your holidays 🙄
