And the evil is done in hopes that evil surrenders / But the deeds of the devil are burned too deep in the embers / And a world of hunger in vengeance will always remember. -Phil Ochs, folksinger

The world is facing some serious issues 🖤 For the release of my climate-protest flavored single "What They Want", I wanted the artwork to be really dark and serious too 😈 I ended up having something more hopeful on the cover in the end, instead of this very black and white shot of me looking deadly serious and angry with those in charge who are letting our planet die 😵 I do feel the climate-anxiety, but I believe that things can be changed for the better and we can all be part of it 💚 What THEY want is to make a profit, what WE want is a healthy planet, am I right? Check me out on Spotify for the actual cover-art for this song and more songs with a look towards a greener future 🤠✌️

It’s always a warm delicious treat to sit down with James Lee Stanley. There’s a reason he’s opened for everyone from Bonnie Raitt, Art Garfunkle, Bill Cosby (before we knew), Robin Williams, Dionne Warwick, Robin Trower, and Steven Wright for 3 years. His 50+ years of friendship and musical partnership with Peter Tork were covered from start till two days before Peter’s passing when he was felled by rare cancer under his tongue. Shockingly, James survived his own bout of tongue cancer months later, when his beloved wife Evelina suggested an endoscopy, without cause. James was back performing mere months later. Last September, days after sitting down with us here, James fell off his roof, for the first time not under the watchful eye of his Evelina, broke his back, was airlifted for surgery, took no pain meds, and did a concert two weeks after surgery. This is a substance- sans substances. 

James treated us to a solo rendition of All I Ever Wanted, one of the many songs he and Peter recorded together.  Just today he posted a video of them performing it: https://youtu.be/9VmeUvSYS1A. James also treated us to fab, funny, apropos, Wake The Flock Up, one of my favorite cuts from his All Wood And Doors, Moonlight Drive, and to the ink just dried, brand new, Carnival. Gorgeous vocals and stunning guitars are James’ trademarks. 

We talked about his All Wood And Stones, Doors, and Led series, what inspired it, the players who’ve graced it, his upcoming album, his 36th, the documentary, The Opening Act – The Extraordinary Journey of James Lee Stanley directed by documentarian Gary J Katz (Badfinger, Humble Pie, Steve Marriott, Manassas), which has received a Peoples Choice Award,  was in the London Lift-Off Film Festival and was accepted into the LA, Chicago, and Atlanta Film Festivals, awaiting judging. 

James Lee always leaves me wanting more. Fortunately, I know exactly where to find it JamesLeeStanley.com
