THE Friday Boys are a disparate group of men spread across Tyneside who meet once a week - 'always on a Friday' - to talk about the arts, raise a glass to recently departed heroes and villains and, at the evening's end, down a whisky or two. The FBs have only one golden rule - talk of the working week is strictly off-limit.
Nina Simone is AMAZING! She actually performed in Accra, Ghana in her mid-80's while I was here... it was sad as she kept forgetting the words to her classics, but you had to hand it to her. Still an icon forever!
Wasn't Nina Simone rather unpleasant and not a little crackers?
ReplyDeleteI believe she wasn't always well-adjusted...
ReplyDeleteNina Simone is a goddess. I think you have to be a little crazy to be a truely great artist.
