Some say he’s an old surfer from Redhead…some say he’s a bloke who’s always keen for a yarn about ‘the good old days’ but you all should say “Happy Birthday”
Crow is my Dad and it’s true, he’s an old surfer with plenty of tales to tell, so for his 60th (October 24th 2009) I’m presenting him with this blog, this window into the world of Crow for everyone else.
A young Crow
I envision these pages will one day be filled with his awesome photos of stuff: surf; scenery; friends and family from when he was a photographer in the 70’s and 80’s combined with rich tales remembered as if they were yesterday. So stay tuned for a portal to the past.
Joe's Garage 1979
No doubt peppered amongst this will be fresh tales of the latest great board he acquired or reviews of a Tom Waits/ Frank Zappa/ George Clinton album he has just rediscovered. Crow loves his weird music and it has played a big part in his life as well as mine, I remember as a 4 year old I would happily sing along to Captain Beefheart. This blog’s title plays homage to one of his favourite albums Joe’s Garage.
Thanks for stopping by and please help me in wishing Crow a happy 60th birthday and extend to him a warm welcome to the world of blogging.
