ANOTHER ANNIE HASLAM INTERVIEW

I'm not the only person to have interviewed Annie Haslam recently...

Mike Ragogna: Annie, you're one of my hero-esses!

Annie Haslam: Oh gosh, not a hero-ess!
MR: (laughs) During an interview the other day, I joked with a couple, "You are the Mayor and Mayor-ess of town," and I thought I'd try that bad joke on another hapless victim.
AH: Is that what you call a female mayor?

AH: Heroine, oh God!
MR: Was just trying on "hero-ess."
AH: I'm going to copyright the word "hero-ess." I'll say it's my design. (laughs) You said that you were solar-powered, and I think that's incredible. I love that.
MR: Thank you, very much. We're the only solar-powered station in the Midwest of the United States and that's very strange to me.
AH: Yeah. It's not right, really, is it. We should all be solar-powered.
MR: Again, thank you for the kind words, Annie, very nice. Okay, let's dive into your new project. Can you go into what the motivation was to cover your two albums, Turn Of The Cards andScheherazade And Other Stories?

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
