TODAY ON THE GONZO BLOG

Saturday morning on the Gonzo blog, and though the weather is cloudy and rather cold here in North Devon, we have lots of shiny happy postings for you....

To celebrate the release of a new DVD documentary by Tony Palmer on the life of legendary violinist Ivry Gitlis, here is an equally legendary clip of yer man himself playing a peculiarly infectious ditty alongside John and Yoko, Keith Richards, Eric Clapton and Mitch Mitchell from the Jimi Hendrix Experience who went to school with Michael Des Barres:

And talking of Michael Des Barres, here is an exclusive picture of him handing over the album masters to Senor Cheesio-Grande himself. Add to that me whinging about growing old, and you have a perfect way to spend five minutes on a bracing spring lunchtime:
