Hi John, heard "your record" yesterday after a long while again. I confess, I bought it because of Bill's contributions - he must have got his sidemen for his first two solos from this project. Concerning your town: Is there more than a railway station? A battlefield for example? And if so, what's the connection to the record?

Carlestones10. What a great photo of Porto Alegre. Usually Rio and Sao Paulo get all the attention. Brazil is a very dynamic country.

Hey Richard, where in Canada are you (I'm in Ottawa)?

i grew up in wilmette, illinois, a suburb of chicago. the bahai temple is the only one in north america,last i heard. as children, we called it the "big orange juice squeezer".

ironically, after years of living all over the usa, i now just live a few miles south, a block from the beach.

you can see the chicago skyline in the distance...

Hey, I'm from Genova, Italy.
First two pics are from the neighborhood I was born in, Boccadasse.

Beautiful Places Dunhill, Aren't those first 2 shots part of Cinque Teere? It looks like one of the five villages.

Anyway, when not a prisoner of Los Angeles (everyone knows what LA looks like), my true home town is Paris, France where I have an apartment. I stay there as much as possible. Someday it should be 100%. Here's a video someone made of my neighborhood. It's usually a very active street market (daily except Sunday) but this guy and his girl friend/wife decided to go on a Sunday afternoon when is was slow and dead. It's usually much more charming and lively. You can find Helter sitting at Cafe du Marche (half way through the video) many a day or night having a nice cold half liter of cold, on-tap Belgium beer or a glass (or 2 or 3) of cool French wine watching the pretty babes cruise by.... Ahhh, the simple life...

Helter, a man of simple needs....

I Don't know who these people are that shot this but Rue Cler is pretty famous as a daily (except Sunday) Street Market. Such a charming neighborhood in the most beautiful city in the world. Not a McDonalds or Burger King or Walmart IN SIGHT !!!!




THIS IS MORE LIKE IT (the street action) but the clip is too short and the babe's slept on, uncombed hair bugs me somewhat.

This is my town Santa Cruz de Tenerife

Battlefield, why YES, the first major conflict of the American Civil War, and a second one a bit over a year later....

Yes, that 1st image is our rail station. Old Town is nice too.

Helter, Le Cinque Terre are about 80 kilometers east of Boccadasse, but you are right, Boccadasse looks a lot like Vernazza.

This one's for Charmer - I don't know why...




In an effort to combat the effects of climate change, the city has installed a giant waterfront fan so we don't need to use as much air conditioning in the summ... What???
