John Allen Tributte :

""I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." ...

Hi Brian and all! once again, Currents is my background for domestic chores today. Michael, I saw a concert by an electronic musician from Cologne just around the corner from my house last night, a fellow named Heinrich Lenz, previously from Weimar. Really excelent ambient music, highly recommended if you happen to see that he is performing near you.

Morphe, I went on the subway to Coney Island a few years back. It was the D Train. When we got to Coney Island, the train stopped with a problem just short of the station. For 45 minutes! I had to pee. And paced back and forth. I should've had a bottle. The D Train side doors are always locked. The F Train goes there too and its side doorsdo open so one could go out and pee. Lessons.

I hadn't seen it until now, and the link doesn't work. I know Verso Books, if that's what it's about. I'm interested but shipping costs remain high, and I'm wary of US publishers after having Ploughshares converting my subscription to online only with no notice but keeping the money. I didn't even have online access at first, and the replies were less than friendly. It's a great journal, but they obviously wanted me out

William Calley and My Lai. I remember that as a young boy reading the daily news. But didn’t fully understand it. Did Colin Powell get assigned to investigate it? And his report wasn’t quite accurate?

To lighten the mood, Brian said “systemic failure”. Someone had a joke that the navy had the crew clean a submarine-“tall guys do the floor. Short guys do the ceiling”
