Agnes by Tony Cochran for May 15, 2023

dreams start small they say (i wonder though what this headband would grow to be like …)

And die at age 27??

I want my MTV…

A start, Agnes. But only that.

For Agnes the answer to the question “are you experienced” is a resounding no.

Nice to know Grandma has good taste in music. Arguably of the very few albums Hendrix was able to record, that was the best, at least to me.

After all the jacks are in their boxes

And the clowns have all gone to bed

You can hear happiness staggering on down the street

Footprints dressed in red

And the wind whispers, “Agnes”

- J. Hendrix

Little Wing, Enormous Foot.

Everyone needs a goal. And then another when the first is realized. And then another and…..

It’s nice to set goals. It’s great to succeed.

Good job, Agnes! You go, girl!

Probably just as well that she didn’t pull out Grandma’s copy of the UK / Track Records version of Electric Ladyland, with nineteen naked women on the wraparound cover:

Hopefully she won’t emulate his penchant for setting his guitar on fire!
