by (mostly) persons unknown - thanks to Denis Dalby for some
great portraits; and the writing is mine
- well, apart from the bits that are nicked from interviews
by Leeds Other Paper, or from a recording of an interview
by Birgit Virnich for WDR, a German Radio Station. “At
Cooloola” is from Judith Wright’s Collected Poems

for the use of the one of me at the top of this page, and

Music
from "Knocking on Kevin's Door" with kind permission
of Linsey Pollak - Excerpt from Documentary
"A Town Like New Orleans" BBC Leeds (1982) - Director
Ian McNulty; Cameraman John Howarth. The newly unearthed videos
on the Xero Myspace which now adorn this story were initially
(and brilliantly!) shot by a cameraman in Koln whose name
eludes me. They were then discovered in an archaeological
dig in Paul Grau's shed in Spain in 2006 and digitised (kindly)
by Thorsten Schmidt in Berlin. Thank you Thorsten. As one
person put it on myspace : "They are Video Gold!"
I have absolutely
no idea who took this photo of Xerophones Jedekiah Slingsby
in full flight at his beloved Cafe Damberd mid-Gentse Feesten,
but it I think it belongs here...
