Helicopter Southern blues. This one is a little different. The story is 1917, Flanders, two American hobos fighting for the English. The latest character attack involves an Australian war artist whom insists on calling them Germans. An insult.

Blues. Used to busk. Thankyou for looking March 2021. Love/art/blues/Rob. So, musical diary
Pardon? How can I interview me? Some streets are better than others? Some highways are brighter than others. Time of day, find a state of mind, imagination, TV, 1920s. I write about love, lost or found, hopefully honestly inspired by love, and try to play better for that. When younger protested about behaviours on my radar, and of course, being a simple artist, surfing the great times I imagine I had in another life, or maybe one day this one!

Story behind the song
This one is a little different. The story is 1917, Flanders, two American hobos fighting for the English. The latest character attack involves an Australian war artist whom insists on calling them Germans and resolutely uses their names with all his mates. This artist, of course, stays safely out of their reach in a trench about twenty yards away (it might as well be twenty miles away for all Apple Jack and Lucky Sam can do about it), happily slandering and deriding their characters, and drawing anything they inspire. The hobos regard him as a bully, the very worse sort as they cannot defend themselves without getting shot. The message is 'no' and 'leave us alone', but the artist just ignores them, intent on impressing his mates all day with 'the joke'. He has stripes you see. Thankyou for viewing my work.
