Reminiscing Jules ??
Permalink  

Gday...

When I was at Greens recently (which seems like a lifetime ago now hmm) Jules and I allowed ourselves to drift back into the 1960s and those wondrous times at the Melbourne discos - Catcher, Thumpin' Tum, Biting Eye, Sebastion's, Berties, Tenth Avenue .. the list goes on.

I was bored again today  cry and began reminiscing  about "stuff" and remembered this drawing (caricature?) of me done by an artist mate back in those days when Catcher was pretty much my home from about 7pm Friday through to VERY early Monday morning.

I thought I would share it wif ya Jules

Cheers - John

Jeff St John entertains the children at The Northcott School For Crippled Children in Sydney.

This is a scene from the documentary, "Rock 'n' Roll Man", included in a television series made in the early 1980s called The Australians, produced by Peter Luck.

A great man, great artist, great music - brought a lump to my throat and tears to my eyes

Cheers - John
