Mr Ro,



It's been a real lo-o-o-ng time since anyone

(I know of) has heard from you. How goes it

in NYC? ...


I've been ensconced in Madras since I left

iit. Family and business affairs have kept me

busy. This is a different kind of world -

business litigation. Yeah! There've been some trips

to the court where one individual sits at

an elevation so that he may stand (rather sit)

apart from the rest. He be the blessed

judge who appears like the monarch of

all he surveys. Surveying the shysters in

black cloaks in the stifling heat of Madras

each one trying to outdo the other in

smothering the truth. It is an experience

no doubt. The working of the courts, the

characters, the excruciatingly slow pace at which

things progress. It is a slow-motion world

but amazingly real. Other than that not a

great deal of excitement.


I am in touch with Mr Tom & Mr Gunsing.

Mr Tom he's still affiliated to ADS. It gets him

travelling across the country going to diverse

places collecting seeds for ADS...


I have picked up some good

Guitar mags - G. World Dec 94 featurin EC

and his latest album. Terrific article. Also

contains an unforgettable article - Santana & Buddy Guy.
