One of the fun southern #CostaRica specialties, the Speckled Tanager. In San Vito, Puntarenas.

I shared billing with Jimmy Cliff on a few occasions. Even though he was older than me, his shows were so energetic. One night in the green room, I asked him how old he was. His only response was “I’m the living.” RIP.

THREAD.

The definitive list of the absolute best interdimensional portals I have photographed on walks in the British countryside.

1. Gateway To The Land Of Leaping Dogs.
I took this photo on the Teign Estuary in Devon in spring 2022. I thought I was just taking a photo of an attractive hole in an old tree. It was only when I got home and looked through my camera roll that I saw the leaping dog, who I'd caught perfectly framed, mid-leap, totally by chance. I remembered the dog immediately, because of what an annoying twat it had been.

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

When I first started touring as a teenage solo musician in the early 70s, Amazingrace on Northwestern University campus was one of my favorite places to perform. It’s great to hear that amazing venue being remembered some 50 years later in this podcast!
