MY ROCK N' ROLL DIARY: MINI PHOTO ESSAY ~ Popthomology

A few shots from the datebook I carried around in the early '80s. Rough draft letters, schedules, recipes, packing lists, notes, record lists, and a few things I cannot even begin to remember what the hell I was talking about. I smile at my old self...same as the new self.

"Cool blog review & candid concert pics that capture the day perfectly!"

"Hi Marianne, I'm the sax player on this cut and I've been enjoying this wonderful video collage that you put together for months.
I consider it quite an honor that you chose Illinois Jacquet to represent me not that I would compare my playing to his in any way, but Jacquet was a real soul-cat.

Thank you."

Keith Gordon, Co-Star & WM BFF, "Winnebago Man" (July 11, 2010, via Facebook): 
Without doubt, the BEST and only original music with 'Bago bytes remix ever done. So this is what I get to hear swirling around in my head for the next few days? Welcome aboard; I'm delighted!"

"We love your song Marianne."
