That’s made my night, thank you.On a happier note. Happy 69th birthday Tom Waits. Great performance of a great song, one of my personal favourites from the Tom playbook.

More sad news, but Billy Bragg gave it a red hot go the other night as a result.Vale Pete Shelley from the Buzzcocks.
Segue to a serious moment...the ongoing persecution of Albino people in parts of Africa (such as Tanzania) is some crazy shit, think mutilation and harvesting of body parts for witch doctoring and powerful magic kind of stuff. If you're looking for something charitable to throw some Christmas guilt relief at this year, slip it on your list and enjoy a listen to tobacco road.^ I don't think it was just that. I think they were also referencing the impact of drug addiction on John. He had a real bad heroin addiction for a while. But mostly it was the albinism.
