story with bicycles in order to work my way to the origin of this passport photo.
On a warm day in 1972 a neighbor girl came to visit my sisters. She was riding a lightweight French 10-speed. I'd never seen one before. I picked it up. It was miraculously light. Half the weight of my Schwinn Varsity, easily. Wyn told me the bike was her father's and he could tell me more about it. Mr. Eck, who I visited soon after, introduced me to his neighbor, David Wessel, who, he said, was more of an expert on lightweight 10-speeds. David had recently moved to East Lansing for a teaching post at Michigan State University, bringing with him from the West Coast a Louison Bobet 10-speed -- just like Mr. Eck's. David was happy to talk to me about bikes, but our conversation quickly turned to music after I entered his basement and caught a glimpse of the setup he had down there: a drum set, a giant litter of percussion instruments, a groaning shelf of LPs, and a fascinating array of oddities. I learned from David that he was sponsoring a visit to MSU by the Art Ensemble of Chicago (of which Roscoe was a founding member). The band came and did a concert, and shortly thereafter, Roscoe found a house in a rural community just north of East Lansing where he lived for several years. The rest of the band returned for a week-long clinic that autumn that I attended and photographed. Roscoe was interested in the camera I was using (my mother's Leica IIIf), and that provided an opportunity for conversation. A couple of years later, Roscoe needed new passport photos and asked me if I would to come to his house and photograph him and his wife Marianne. Roscoe is 78 today and still making amazing music.
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you
But my words, like silent raindrops fell

Got to hand it to Ol' Smoky Eye. What a piece of work! Like one of those composite pics that constructs a face out of two faces. One droops and the other judges. Droopy is older than her years with that deepset smoldering and slant and slow and sneering down at you all slow and stinky-slowburny passive-resentful; Judge aggressively menaces and warns; dramatic brow-angle asymmetry enhances totality max RBF impact; downturned frownymouth molds the whole show into everything we know and (don't) love about Where We Would Now Be As a People, were we a People, rather than merely a crowd of angry vehicle operators in a hurry to ruin the planet for everybody but Us and Our Kids.
Still, awww... ain't they precious though? Sooo cute. I mean, just 100% adorable. Almost remind us of Us, in fact. So get those butts in the back of the SUV, vacation time, team! We're haulin' out first thing... Yosemite, hey, yeah!... wait, check that Hon... no, closed, smoke?... so... what say Lake County, maybe a little swim... Watch out that trailer hitch don't drag on the road and spark up now, it's how that Redding fire got started... I mean, no, yeah, hey it's all just a series of communist mistakes and weird coincidences not climate change, got to be true 'cause the President says so... or the Bible or somewhere... somebody's always gonna be sayin' somethin'... That's what we mean by freedoms, right, kids?... hmmmm, hack, cough, naw, better re-check those AQ advisories... Well, ok, we'll get ice cream then... over to Solano... or maybe just a ride around the block, but... cough, gasp... What's that, kids? Can't breathe? C'mon! No lettin' the side down, now. Just shut up and get in the back. What? Who cares if the sun's red. Probably they're just testing... like, you know, something. Huh? Nope! Climate change ain't even a thing. Smoke's really good for you. I don't care what your freakin' Commie teacher said! Time to gas up and go! No more stupid questions!

NYC 2016 / 9247 | final cut for 'WARN'D IN VAIN' , the book i 'm trying to edit and design last year, a NYC story on a parallel line with the Argonautic myth. I 'll try to make a crowdfunding campaign in September to be able to print the book this year. 'WARN'D IN VAIN' is a twin story of 'BACK TO NOWHERE', a Minotaur inspired tale from Crete, hopefully to be published some day in the future.: photo by dirtyharrry, 6 August 2018
Louisville | An emphasis on safety came the hard way. "On August 3, 1929, a 750-ton combination oil and rock barge belonging to the cement company was tied to a dock on the Ohio river near Kosmosdale, Ky., during a thunder storm. An explosion occurred, killing every one on board." Text from a lawsuit I found online.

UB40 live in Santiago, Chile, 1989: Johnny Too Bad
ReplyDeleteThe Slickers: Johnny Too Bad
ReplyDeleteWalking down the road With your pistol in your waist Johnny you're too bad Walking down the road With your ratchet in your waist Johnny you're too bad You're just robbing and you're stabbing And you're looting and you're shooting Now you're too bad You're just robbing and you're stabbing And you're looting and you're shooting Now you're too bad One of these days when you hear a voice say come Where you gonna run to? One of these days when you hear a voice say come Where you gonna run to? You're gonna run to the rock for rescue There will be no rock You're gonna run to the rock for rescue There will be no rock Walking down the road With your pistol in your waist Johnny you're too bad Walking down the road With your ratchet in your waist Johnny you're too bad
love that poem...and morning light does help !!
