Hello again,

Ronson coming along was Neuwirth's doing. He got friendly with Ronson and Ian Hunter. There's a new bio of Kinky Friedman that's about to be released. Go to Kinky's web page www.kinkyfriedman.com for more details.

Kinky's garbage should be quarantined.

I remember reading somewhere that Dylan liked Nick Cave's work a lot. [Read entire topic]

The book is excellent, Mr. Sloman.

Someone mentioned Stew. Are there other lyricists out there that Dylan likes? Beck springs to mind, or (less likely) Farrell, KRS-ONE, or Yauch.

Of course, there have been so few lyricists worth paying attention to in the last 20 years, I'd be surprised if Dylan listens to any of it. And 90% is hip-hop. (Does Dylan listen to hip-hop?) [Read entire topic]

Yet, Kinky's garbage may be far more interesting than Dylan's was. [Read entire topic]

To sashkenaz: there is no, nor has there been, a bio of Kinky. But if you read his mystery novels, you get a very accurate -- albeit fictionalized -- self-portrait of the real Kinkster. Self-portrait. Cannot escape those Dylan refs. I feel like Weberman... [Read entire topic]
