    The really famous rock bands put on very slick shows, carefully crafted and usually exactly the same every night. I saw Jonathan play a small venue , years ago, and even his band didn’t know what was coming next! Sometimes he stopped playing halfway through a song to talk to the audience, sometimes he would shout out a new key change to his band halfway through a song. He was actually there with us in the room, not just going through the motions. The best rock show I ever saw.

    Richman is the modern strolling minstrel who can always put a smile on even the grumpiest of grumy faces. Life is always better with a Richman in it.

    An unconditional love of rock & roll, of frayed jeans, of the beach, of chewing gum wrappers, of Bermudan flowers that almost knock you down, of the night sky, of the past, of the present. My affection for this record is, like true love, utterly unreasonable.

    I saw Jonathan live in summer 1985 when he was touring for this album. (I think Andy Paley was on drums, but that might have been the next tour,) Anyway, I had Bruce Springsteen tickets for the same night, Aug. 5, but when I heard Jonathan was playing I sold them. NO REGRETS! Still have the ticket stub for JoJo's show at DC's tiny (and now defunct) Club Saba.

    I lived in Wellesley, right next to you, then moved to Austin in 2012 and our lives went downhill from there. My husband, an MD at MGH, Professor at Harvard. I played him your songs, he loved you. So I love your songs too.. At least I own a house and you know, Wellesely girls - if you need a house you and your wife, family - if you need a home, for you and your wife, I have a big one and will happily have you. WE LOVE YOU!!!!

    OMG, MY sister lives in Martha's Vineyard and addicted to M &M'S before covid, we'd fly to my grandma's house in Bermuda. Also, my Atty MONE was in Farrelly brothers movies as was my psychiatrist. my high school boyfriend played me RADIO ON...... He got me home too late. I Had to go to bed, grounded, then sat on the turn of the stairs, out of the side, and to my surprise, dad sang 'RADION ON.....I'm IN LOVE WITH MASSACHUSETTS, UP ALL NIGHT. With my teenage boyfriend. my dad was an artist, so loved Vincent Van GOGH. Did I love the Gardener MUSEUM TOO! museum of who-b was-she? Walked around with a tiger. Massachusetts eccentrics every second house.
