please go to my art site
you can click on it there on the right
you can see the paintings for my new exhi
in pittsburgh pa starting real soon
still havent multi media thingies finished
but its all coming down the line soon too
if you like my blog style
then you’ll like my little discourses on my subjects
you see i am the total package
taking care of all your artistic needs
a one stop shop for all things renaissance
i’m blowing my own horn again
for who else will?
here i am a whirlwind of activity
spinning out stuff constantly
voice from another room : most of your stuffs quite good…
i am there in the frontline
nailing the paintings n songs n blogges that only i can
and i nail it and i nail it and i nail it
i have enough fire for ten other medi-ochre poets
but lawd, dont i love to go on about myself
i’m shocked not to be discovered
in some ways its fun too
to make an album like #23
most mags wont review it
most people wont ever hear it
yet the record contains more grace n beauty
than 97% of all rock records thatll get released this year
its like theres a curse on us gets us ignored
voice in a other room : that curse is age and time…
so inna way
its been kinda amazing to release sheer masterpieces
like priest=aura n #23 etc
and know new people keep stumbling into us
amazed we exist
with our huge body of werk
and all the solo thingies
and all our malarkey
you see
people in their mid fifties are SUPPOSED to be at the top of their game
before senility sets in
you pull it all together
all your experience
all your knowledge
all your love
and you pour it into the crucible of your latest work
and you evoke the most beautiful convulsion you can
a ninny listening to # 23 for 10 minutes so he can review it ….
its so pointless
like watching , say, fanny n alexander, for 10 minutes
and saying
whether it was good or bad
our records are like those vitamins that slow release
our records esp #23 will go on giving for years
long after you forgot who the strokes were
or whatever…..
heres some more #23 snippets
