B) Just thought I would comment on how much I enjoyed the new diary entry. I love the insight into the man behind the image that these entries offer. I used to watch "The Prisoner" all those decades ago: I recall that my late mum and I used to have animated discussions as to the true identity of "Number 6".
(Thank you Steve for awakening such buried memories!)
I too did not realise how close Harley and Bolan were.
A fascinating entry.
Thank you B)

I wouldn't have said better, that's exactly it. I have the same feeling.

You've spoken for me, too. When he lets his guard down, Steve is a great diarist. These insights to life back then, mixing so closely with the imoortal Bopping Elf, what a story! When are the Portmeirion tickets ons ale, that's the question!
I'm booking a room at their hotel today for that September date.

I am too.
By the way, Crazy Horse, do you have or did you ever listen to this single "Oh Baby" he issued under the pseudonym of Dib Cochran & the Earwigs around 1970 ?
