Portrait of singer Aaron Neville
Happy belated 84th Birthday to Aaron Neville, forever in my pantheon of R&B/Soul singers. I photographed and interviewed him at his and his wife's farm in 2016 for @motherjones.com www.motherjones.com/media/2016/1...

Threads doesn't seem to help much with sharing work, so I'll try here and see if you'll help me wish Patti Smith a belated birthday with a story about these unpublished portraits from 10 years ago. thatmilliondollarbash.substack.com/p/got-to-los...
The very first photo feature story of That Million Dollar Bash just went live. We chronicle an amazing hang with @coleminerecords.bsky.social 's own Kelly Finnigan.

I've launched a Substack featuring in-depth photo-based features on music and musicians. Check out the introductory post here: thatmilliondollarbash.substack.com/p/its-that-m...
Morning Uber ride with Avtandil to the post office. I’m guessing he’s about 65. The opening notes to ‘Unforgiven’ come on the stereo. When I got out I said, “Thanks for the Metallica!” And I got confused silence, I don’t think he understood a word I said.
I had had a little whiskey and I was trying to tell someone about Phil Spector (as a producer) but it came out ‘Spil Phector’ and that shoulda been my Bluesky handle.
My feed is all anime drawings, cheeseball photography and squirrels. The Bluesky algo has some learning to do…
The owners of Wisconsin-based Uline spent more money funding Republicans in this election than even Elon Musk. www.opensecrets.org/outside-spen...
Record dealers, bands, labels, etc. - PLEASE do not buy your LP/45 shipping supplies from ULINE. Yes, they have everything but they are MEGA-MAGA. Outfits like Bags Unlimited and Sleeve City can hook you up.
