Brother Blue - Wikipedia
He was a fixture in Harvard Square, Cambridge, MA when I was a street musician there. We spent many hours hanging out together with the rest of the "street people," discussing everything from philosophy and religion to street fashion (it was an actual thing), to the pair of amphibian cars that we often saw parked outside the Garage.
His presence was missed and from what I recall, Queen Elizabeth II sent a personal condolence card to his wife Ruth after he passed away. |
Brother Blue - how do you do - Varied interests - like life at a zoo - Credentials apenty - that's obviously true - Travel aplenty - lots of stamps to glue - My heart's heavy - and that's no levity - My poetry's bad - and I should give up - Take Blue's advice - and shut up!
