After several cowardly failed attempts, tonight I finally dropped a track from Yes bassist Chris Squire’s 1975 solo debut ‘Fish Out of Water’ into a DJ set
my friend @hamiltonnolan may be a scoundrel and a layabout with many regrettable qualities but his book about the power of organized labor is beautiful, inspiring, dare I say even a gravely necessary rejoinder to the manifold ills of our era. I got teary at the end! https://t.co/fcrZen2j9u
