I'M YER GONZO BLOG DOO-DAH MAN

Well, as Wednesdays go today is quite a good one. As Corinna is out this morning I am taking the opportunity to buy some Christmas presents online for her and listen to the absolutely extraordinary new Scott Walker album much louder than I would usually dare play anything so completely out there! It is alternately scary and hysterically funny, which is probably not the best thing for a manic depressive to listen to. New books by Richard Freeman and Jim Jackson were uploaded yesterday, and more new stuff is in the offing. Golly, this autumn has been exhausting.

An interesting interview with Jon Anderson, during which he empathises with the difficulties faced by his replacements in Yes. What a nice bloke he is...

The other day, together with Mother and the orange cat, I watched the GPS live DVD on Gonzo. We were so impressed that I went in search of more information on the band

This is a compendium of writings from one of the great journalists of the 20th Century for one of the greatest music magazines of all time. Of course it’s bloody good.  What did you expect?

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: http://gonzo-multimedia.blogspot.com/2012/11/all-gonzo-news-wots-fit-to-print.html

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?
