Quote of the Day (Eric Clapton, on How ‘Music Survives Everything’)
“Music will always find its way to us, with or
without business, politics, religion, or any other bullshit attached. Music
survives everything, and like God, it is always present. It needs no help, and
suffers no hindrance.”—Eric Clapton, Clapton: The Autobiography
(2007)
Happy belated birthday to Eric Clapton, born 70 years ago as of this past Monday in Ripley,
Surrey, England. His Forever Man
compilation is due at the end of this month, and his May 1 and 2 appearances at
Madison Square Garden are sure to be memorable.
I'm a librarian (no, NOT a "cybrarian" or "information scientist" or any of the other trendy terms the profession has come up with), as well as a freelance writer/researcher; my political leanings are contrarian, much to the dismay of friends on the left and right, and so I will give anyone looking for my vote exactly what they deserve -- the back of my hand
