Yesterday was a fairly difficult day, and one which I would rather not go into. However, I am feeling far less psychotic this morning and ready to greet the challenges of a new week. Hopefully I will get some interviews done, and things will flow a little more smoothly. We are approaching what is euphemistically known as 'The Festive Season', and whilst I am not a fan of this time of year, I would like to assure you all that the blogs will continue as normal, and I might even look slightly jolly.
We start off today with a preview of the remarkable new solo album by 'Mostly Autumn' guitarist, Liam Davison
Our daily visit to Austin, TX and the work of Thom the World Poet
Still in Texas, here is an interview with Yes guitarist Steve Howe
People seem to like Michael Des Barres' Christmas single
Jon Anderson goes through 'Close to the Edge' song by song
A look at some classic Eric Burdon
The Gonzo Daily is a two way process. If you have any news or want to write for us, please contact me at jon@eclipse.co.uk. If you are an artist and want to showcase your work, or even just say hello please write to me at gonzo@cfz.org.uk. Please copy, paste and spread the word about this magazine as widely as possible. We need people to read us in order to grow, and as soon as it is viable we shall be invading more traditional magaziney areas. Join in the fun, spread the word, and maybe if we all chant loud enough we CAN stop it raining. See you tomorrow...
The Gonzo Daily is - as the name implies - a daily online magazine (mostly) about artists connected to the Gonzo Multimedia group of companies. But it also has other stuff as and when the editor feels like it. The same team also do a weekly newsletter called - imaginitavely - The Gonzo Weekly. Find out about it at this link:
Jon Downes, the Editor of all these ventures is an old hippy of 53 who - together with his orange cat - puts it all together from a converted potato shed in a tumbledown cottage deep in rural Devon. He is ably assisted by his lovely wife Corinna, his bulldog/boxer Prudence, his mother-in-law, and a motley collection of social malcontents. Plus.. did we mention the orange cat?
