#stthomas #USVI 9/19/2025 and 9/25-9/28 2025. Definitely more lively and busy than St John’s Dancing, Iguanas, Roosters, some of the harbor views there are actually old caves that were used in WWII and the Cuban Missle Crisis. #travel2025 #sonya7iii #september2025 #vacation #tamronlens

#OneAlbumADay; In 1970, too many ignored this beautifully dreamy debut LP by Linda Perhacs -- born Linda Jeanne Arnold on September 21, 1943, Santa Monica, CA -- so she kept working as a dental hygienist until it was rediscovered, circa 2003. I first read about her in Scram fanzine. More: alt text

Linda Perhacs made just one album, 1970’s 'Parallelograms.' It sold sparingly, despite FM airplay in sophisticated rural markets where its dreamy evocation of nature and sexuality resonated most strongly. Linda recorded the album over a long period while working days as a dental hygienist. When MCA didn’t ask for a follow up, she put all her energy back into her work. Years went by. Michael Piper, a dealer and reissue producer, decided to put out a CD of the record, a favorite of his since soon after its release. The project generated a nice little buzz among the international psychedelic collectors scene, and Michael sent a stack of copies and a letter to an address he found for one “Linda Perhacs.”

(from Scram fanzine, a New Year's Day interview with Linda by my friends Kim Cooper and Ron Garmon, 2004 -- I'll post a link in Replies).

This combines two of my favorite things: whiskey and peanut butter. Yes, you can taste it. Kinda reminds me of Southern Comfort. #stcroix #usvi #whiskey #peanutbutter #reallygood

“And we watched time go by
Well I told her ask me anything
She asked me how to cry
And when I think of you I know forever I will be
Happy as the fool because together we are free.

“Mary’s Pub” by Amble

Good night Palmers 1906-2025.

“How fragile we are under the sheltering sky. Behind the sheltering sky is a vast dark universe, and we're just so small.”
