Classic Rock - DVD Feature Review ********

"The eccentric genius who inspired Zep and Floyd matures with age".

"... the film and the audio have been unobtrusively enhanced to compelling effect... Pastoral, sometimes trippy images are skilfully woven into the footage, often merging in and out of Harper's face. It's simple, imaginative and never distracting."
Hugh Fielder

   About Roy Harper
"He may be cantankerous and opinionated but through all this he remains a highly intelligent poet and a hopeless romantic blessed with a remarkable voice. Mostly, his entire recorded output is hugely underrated."

HeHappy Summer! My Mom also said growing in the country as a girl, Fresh corn should be knee high by the 4th of July!! I am back in My beloved Ohio, and the corn is knee high, oh yeah!!! I have missed you all!!! I went NYC for a few days then drove down to Woods Hole, Massachusetts, ferried over to Martha's Vineyard, which I Love!!!! It's a magical place,as though, time has stopped~ I rode my bike 12 miles from Oak Bluffs to Edgartown,along the beach and ponds and woods to the Harbour, it was absolutely fantastic!!! Six miles each way, lots of New England Clam Chowder and Oyster Crackers !!! Ferried back to Woods Hole and drove up to Glouscester Massachusetts, Oldest Seaport in the US, stayed a while on the Ocean,So Very Beautiful!!!, Rocky beaches and lighthouses dotting the two lane road,Wildflowers growing out of the rocks, so amazingly Wonderful!!! Watching the sunrise from my balcony~Sending You the Overwhelming Love and Beauty from my Heart to Yours~ I Love You~*Love, Kris y Roy!!! Coming to UK 11Jul-27Jul!!

RH, curious if you use condiments during your bouts of autocannibalism. I find mustard with horseradish to add that extra zing. Much to nibble about these days -- it has rained and rained and rained,rained, rained, rained in NY Metroland. Soggy streets, soggy shoes, soggy souls. This guy has cheered me up, though. Four strings. Hmmmmm

~Good Morning My Beautiful Friend~*~As the Ferry began to pull out of the Harbour, I filled with Bliss as Cape Cod sparkled in the sunlight and reflection of My Beloved Sea~The Victorian waterfront mansions, from an era gone by, restored to their original glory~Pure Magnificence became smaller as I continued to Sail~I stood at the aft and absorbed the Gorgeous combination of the Rocky Beach,the uphill long lawns, the Gardens of pink, deep and light wild English Roses, the moored Sailing Boats and I Smiled and filled with the most Breathtaking Wonderful Love~*~*I am Sending this to you~As I Love You~Love Kris
