John Martyn (1948-2009).


Tonight fight or fuck someone for John. Or fight AND fuck someone. Or just do as I'm doing: listen to Bless the Weather and think of how improbable a decent cover version of 'Singing in the Rain' must've been. And how astonishing it is.

I was thinking, too, purely as an aside, but relevant, how cold and instantly these websites learn about deaths.  I check Wikipedia, as they update most frequently, and edit for accuracy as often.  But how did this happen?  It is absorbent and multiplicitous, knowing about the crushing acts, not yet of the age to legally drink.  

Anyhow, rest in peace.
