After Jim's death last September I was contacted by Frederico Sandman about a book he was doing. He asked if he might interview me and I gladly obliged him.. To my surprise a couple weeks ago he emailed telling me the book had been released and he sent me a copy.
The book is out on Chin Aski Ediz Ioni Books.. It is quite a nice book all written in Italian.. He tells about me hanging out with Jim during his days in San Francisco and going to a Warehouse Party at Michael Cotton's (The Tubes) warehouse.. We had a photo taken with Chris Frantz and Tina Weymouth of The Talking Heads.. Speaking of photo's there are some great photo's in the boo that I had never seen before. One in particular is of him and his ex wife Rosemary.... A young healthy Jim looking quite dapper! If has quotes about Jim from Patti Smith, Keith Richards, Leonardo DiCaprio and Jack Kerouuac.. I am honored to be in such great company... Thank you FT Sandman for the interview and the book...
