"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." (Visit homepage.)

ModernB.. my BC name is Murphy.. in Bklyn (and elsewhere) everyone had a nickname - Flash, Big Ears, Yellowman, Jonnhy T - or worse.. I was lucky to keep my name - more or less - so I was Murphy or Morph as fellow G/Listener Earth would have it. Went through a heroin phase combined with Classical Greek studies - Morpheus y Lethe are rivers in the storiestexts{dreams and forgetting/death?]- I became Morphe' at that point.. 40 yeays clean.. Only beer and wine... and good food and hot sauce - no guns involved (a W&B) reference from Thursday... off to the food lines.. Happily, there is not yet a Soylent Green shelf...Be Safe... Morphe'

Ja, Modern Blaze, etal - Irriving Plza had the side door into the Polish Club which gave access.. that got shut down eventually. Cbs had the back door in the alley/street behind - rare but sometimes.. My best was happening upon punks in Mexico City going to Burning Spear - sold out and complete chaos outside - cops in turtle gear.. went around back and somehow?? Managed to convince them I was a NY journalist wholeft his Press pass in the hotel .. chaos inside too - show got shut down after about 45 mins. A big arena.. Folks in the upper tiers were jumping into the lower tiers to get to
the main floor .. utter chaos - interesting but the show got shut down. Frown Emoji..

I hate to tell you this, but Sullivan country doesn't want you. They issued a polite request to stay out of the county if you are not a resident.

Take care, morphe', be careful out there.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:53am Doobois:

Are you a resident of Sullivan County, JA? I live in Orange County (Sugar Loaf) and local media reported that Sullivan "shut its borders."
