Hello Mother!! I know it's been a while...but I'm still here. I guess the the blue ones were the ones worn the most. Perhaps the reason I remember the white ones were because they were at eye level as I was lounging on the chaise (underneath the big mirror) in the Versailles Room one evening.

Re: Farewell Charming Old New York
I am not a bloodie Rainbow person that I think I can (or do I want?) to live without money. What I am talking about is the emphasis that is placed on the profit motive - as being more important than anything else. To the point that no-one recognizes any other reason for doing anything. There are plenty of interpersonal relationships that are all about "do for me, gimme". Lovers and spouses degenerate into money-sucking. The art world is seriously infected with money-grubbing... that was what...

What artist would not like to make a living doing what they love to do? I don't understand your contempt for those who are able to. If it makes you feel better, I do not believe that most of those painters are rich at this moment, but even if they were, this would not make them a bunch of whores. If they are now getting media attention and a place in history, that doesn't make them sell-outs. The Soho art scene was crowded then, and getting way too blue-chip and over-valued. The fact that a...

I never went to Le Jardin. (some things actually were before my time) but Chi Chi and I worked with John Addison (the owner of Le Jardin and Xenon) later on. What a character! The music was so happy back then. I was listening to Larry Levan recorded at The Paradise Garage the other day and I was really surprised by how hopeful the music was. Everything was so new that anything seemed possible. (of course being 17 doesn't hurt either) When I go hear "Big Room" DJs now the music seems so dark.

Re: Nina Simone
I saw this thing on the ovation channel with Nina doing a concert. When she performed "see-line Woman" she started dancing and the crowd cheered her on. So I hope she doesn't mind being remixed for the modern-day dance floor, because some of her originals are funky and the material I've heard remixed, like "see-line" "Little Girl Blue" "Feeling Good", etc., are really good. But she's dead so I can't really speak for Nina.
