horsemouth watched a video in homage to pharoah sanders on the occasion of his 80th birthday in 2020. it was narrated by jazz singer charlotte dos santos.
it featured a poem by south african poet keorapetse kgositsile pro/creation (for pharoah sanders) which appeared in the liner notes for sanders’ 1971 record thembi. kgositsile spent time in exile from the apartheid regime in the USA.
pharoah sanders was born 13/10/1940 dies 24/09/2022. horsemouth will try and observe the memorial calendar this year.
in the late 80ies/ early 90ies horsemouth owned a number of albums by the african poetry collective african dawn there is a podcast about them hosted by kwesi owusu and narrated by eugene skeef - friend of steve biko.
he also watched a video on the life of philip k. dick and one on the festival in parco lambro near milan,
he's got a phonecall from john this evening (so remind him to plug the phone in to recharge). john may be over visiting next week. outside it looks like a beautiful day. horsemouth has just consulted his diary (no guidance there).
last night he went to a meeting of the communal endeavour. after quite a few people went up the pub (adam, lianne, pete, andy). horsemouth drank about 2 1/2 pints and then got a falafel wrap on the way back (so it was an expensive business).
