Reading the stuff here brings back so many memories.
Now about everyone years back knew Alex.... but didja also know he was a poet?
Alex loved the Blues..... and he really had a good voice and his style of delivery could have
you laughing your head off if he did "The Battle Hymn of the Republic".
We used to go down to The Molly Stark Inn on occasion, I'd take my guitar ..... we'd have a few pints and then
I'd back up Alex while he sang.
The crowd favorite was a 12 bar blues Alex wrote himself..... politically correct naturally: The Jonestown Blues
I'm a goin' down to Jonestown, got my baby by my side
I'm a goin' down to Jonestown with my baby by my side
We're goin' to sit out in that jungle
And drink some potassium cy-oooo-nide. (mmmmm)
There was more.... but I have forgotten it.
