Reading an article about the new movie about the Rolling Thunder Revue, the writer says all superstars owe their breakthrough to a manager – is that more true than saying all managers owe their career to an artist who took off? Think of Tommy Sands, that’s who Colonel Tom managed before he met Elvis. Ever hear of Tommy? Where does this line of thought end. Trump blaming immigrants doesn’t come close to reflecting what’s going on but the world swallows up soundbites, X = Y, and let’s most speakers off free just because they said it. That’s what’s really going on, the noise and bombardment of many declarations and variations of saying X = Y. So confusing and leaves people accepting Elton John is playing the piano and Cecil Taylor isn’t.
