Numero uno: The wonderful souls at Omnibus Press have sent me a copy of Ian Hunter’s recently-reprinted 1972 classic tour memoir Diary of a Rock Star. Please purchase it after I’ve given it a rave review, so I will be sent more free books.
Numero dos: This is Lefty Rosenthal, who was played by Robert De Niro in Casino…

…and that’s the face he made at Congress when they asked him if he was a mobster.
Remember, kids: if you’re willing to take the beating, you can tell anyone to go fuck themselves.
Omnibus Press also published one of the best books on the subject (almost a Barrett brothers biography) ‘Wailing Blues – the story of bob marley’s Wailers’ and coincidently I notice right next to it on my bookshelf ‘Bob Dylan in his own words’ a 1978 title so they’ve been at it a while. Glad you are getting some review copies! Looking forward to the review! What I enjoy now when reading old music biographies/mags is the ability to listen to all the music/songs mentioned with Spotify. It’s a wonderful world.
Quid:
You talk about Cleveland A LOT in your review of Ian
Quo:
I will make the donate bell ring.
I know it has been a while, but well for Christmas and for some shout out to Cleve, well don’t call it quid pro quo, but there it is quiding and quoing in the breeze.
Speaking of revues, how do you like Watchmen?
A consistent blueberry to muffin batter ratio is critical
