Ah The Warehouse concert in 1970. Well no.Originally Posted by Flem
It was in 1962 that NME published my article suggesting that Buddy Holly's death (3rd February 1959) was a good career move because, frankly, his career was then heading for the toilet and I feel the same way about Jim Morrison.
If Shakespeare had lived a little later he would, I am sure, have found a way to refer to a bloated "rock god" expiring at 27 in a Paris bath tub from a surfeit, not of lampreys but of drugs. Nothing in his life became him like the leaving it
?
But New Orleans? Well I've been three times so I kinda like the place (although I love the USA) but one reason why I have a soft spot for it is that it was where the second greatest American songwriter of the rock era grew up.
And so I recommend Dixie Flyer and New Orleans Wins The War off Land Of Dreams by Randy Newman.
