Champion Jack Dupree

I shared my 72nd Birthday today at Dean Clough Art Gallery with the ghost of Halifax's Blues legend Champion Jack Dupree. 

Jack's Bio

Jack's Biography = born in New Orleons ( to a part African American and Cherokee mother & father from the Congo .) died in Germany:parent's murdered by KKK when he was 2.: he then lived in the same orphanage as Louis Armstrong : WW2 a Japanese POW for 2 years : smoking dope with Eric Clapton on Ovenden Way Halifax :earlier was a US boxing champion (hence his nickname)etc etc An amazing life. Reading Jack's Biography above, what it doesn't tell you is that while Jack lived in Halifax his Postman was my late friend Phil Davidson who died a few months ago !

Final Farewell Tour

We met up in Rochdale this afternoon for what I had billed as " Hydn's Last Drink" .

But it went so well that we will probably be having another ( in Manchester) in the coming weeks! 

A bit like one of those aging Rock Bands who do a " Final Farewell Tour" only to reappear soon afterwards to do another one!

 Anyway ,Hydn was on fine form : a pleasure to be with. He even joked that he was a bit upset about just having to buy a new freezer, knowing that he won’t get full use of it.

I meet up with Hydn tomorrow in Rochdale with Huffy, Tony T & Jimmy.

Our last ever drink together?
