GOODBYE TO YOU MY TRUSTED FRIEND...

Rod McKuen has been an ongoing source of inspiration ever since my friend Barry Alfonso introduced me to his works back in the 70s. over the years his material has never lost its ability to surprise me with its unexpected twists & turns, and I've made no secret of the fact that he was THE influence for Music Martinis & Misanthropy (& what followed in its wake). I came very very close to working with him on a few occasions & always assumed eventually I would, but now its too late for that.

I envy Shaun Partridge, who was invited to Rods birthday party in NYC, & received a hug from the great man--- surely the ultimate RM experience.

I'd like to thank all those people who gave me so much cool McKuen stuff over the years, such as this big framed poster that hangs in my study & lots & lots of books (some signed). many many thanks.

bye Rod
