The great Hubert Sumlin (guitarist on the classic Howlin' Wolf records) & me playing onstage during a NY Dolls show. He was so humble & fun. We played together a bunch of times - once, as a guitar/vocal duo @ Levon Helm's Barn for The Ramble which was filmed but sadly, was confiscated by the staff 😞

My brother John & I have been at this music thing for a minute. We owe a lot to our jazz singer mom, Rosemary Conte who encouraged us, bought us instruments & lessons and trained us to play in her band. This photo is from an early pre-teen performance in NJ, playing Dylan, Beatles & Creedence.

Sadly true. Being an asshole, a fuck up, a psycho or an addict gets musicians/singers more notice than being a nice guy. Fats Domino succeeded despite his sweetness but others haven’t been so lucky… #NiceGuysFinishedLast #FatsDomino #anypressisgoodpress #RocknRoll #TheHistoryOfRockMusic

Had dinner at Paris’ oldest cafe, Le Procope - founded in 1686. It was known as the Cafe Of The Revolutionaries and during the Age Of Enlightenment became a favorite haunt of Voltaire & Rousseau. One night, Napoleon left his hat here to pay off his bill #paris #france #leprocope #cafe #Napoleon
