A NOTE FROM THE EDITOR


Maybe it's the new doc out about singer, actress and Mick Jagger's squeeze Marianne Faithfull. Or maybe it's about that Ukranian refugee, safe on a public bus in North Carolina, who was slaughtered by a ghoul straight out of a Blum House horror. Or maybe it's the inconceivable assassination of a lawful, earnest seeker. I just can't get this sad and adamant song out of my head.
