John and I are long-time colleagues and friends. I enjoyed Courthouse Cafe, long ago, when he worked there and I loved the first John Ash & Co. in Montgomery Village, which my daughter Nicolle chose for her 10th birthday dinner. We've cooked, eaten, drank, taught, , and done radio together for decades and now here we both are on Substack.
There is no better cultural voice today than Greil Marcus. I fell in love with "Real Life Rock Top Ten" in the late 1970s, when it appeared in New West Magazine and I've followed him from publication to publication to publication. If you are not familiar with his work, do yourself an immense favor and discover it, discover him. Soon, you may find yourself in need of another bookshelf, as his books are as vital, gripping, and thrilling as his columns and articles.
Annabel is whip smart, with a command of the issues that are crushing us and a unique approach. She is brilliant and engaging and I encourage you to explore and support her adventure.
