Triple Whammy

Todays birthdays are the triple whammy of:
Philip Glass, Derek Jarman and Johnny Rotten. All I can add is WOW!
Glassworks is my favourite album by PG and it was an early one.
If you get a chance do listen to it. I have been enjoying his music for thirty years now! That is another WOW!
Derek Jarman was an extraordinary creative person, his films, writings, set designs and his garden in Dungeness at Prospect Cottage are all amazing. If it was not an overused term I would say he was a "renaissance man". There will be an exhibition in February at the Serpentine, London of his work and it is curated by Isaac Julien. Do look out for it!
And John Lydon...well nevermind does he need any comment at all? The dogs bollocks to many and more.
(If you read the Guardian, do tell me that "my" birthdays are better!)
