Joanna Newsom, 2007

Fresh from thrashing

I wanna run away, I wanna run away, I wanna run away, I wanna run away

I wanna bring you too, I wanna bring you too, I wanna bring you too, I wanna bring you too

I wanna run in the mud, I wanna run in the mud, I wanna run in the mud, I wanna run in the mud

Here's to Jay who sadly passed away yesterday morning. I met him on a press shoot we did on a freezing cold day in London in November, 2008. Here's one of the photos from the session. Check out that pout - best lips in garage rock! Rest in peace, Jay.

Rocket Recordings held their christmas rituals at the Vibe Bar in London on Sunday. Favourite bands of the night were Gum Takes Tooth and TODD, who get extra special points for turning up on rollerblades.
