As often, after an artist passes, dug into the collection to see what resides therein -

First album, just titled "John David Souther"

"Black Rose"

"You're Only Lonely"

Plus a 1974 album - "Souther-Hillman-Furay Band". Sort of Country Rock supergroup.

Kinky Friedman (who we also lost this year) once observed of Kris Kristofferson that, having lost the girl who inspired "Me and Bobby McGee", he soothed the pain by sleeping with 50% of all the blondes in California.
This included Farrah Fawcett, who Kris said had "just enough butt to keep my balls off the bed".

Twitter is saying that the cartoonist Ed McLachlan has died. Never knowingly tasteful or safe, his work was a big part in shaping my sense of humour.
