Jack Russell

Today I received the two CD's with Jack that I didn't already have. Thank you so much Veronica! One of them was even signed. I've never cared about autographs, but somehow it means a lot to me to have had Jack signing it.

Captain has arrived!

A couple of days ago, the Captain arrived. Well, that's Jack Russell's biography 'The True Tale of Mista Bone', written by K.L. Doty. I've been away from home, so I haven't had the chance to start reading it yet.

It's a 346 pages long book about Jack and his life. Mostly text, but pictures too, I'm not 100% sure I'm ready to start reading it yet, it will be very emotional for me.

Below the images here, I'll list some places where you can get the book.

Internationally I guess the place to get it is Amazon. I don't shop much there myself, due to international shippin.g

If you're in Sweden, AdLibris is without te best place to get it. 

413 Skr and free shipping. If you're patient enought to wait for it for a few weeks.

RIP Jack

One of my absolute fave singers, or maybe THE fave singer, died last week, only 63 years old. Jack Russell from Great White. He suffered from Lewy body demetia and multiple system atrophy.

Not only has he always been a fave singer of mine. It was also thanks to his words in an interview that I picked up my portrait drawing after an over ten years break. I don't remember the exact words now, but he said something about that if you have been given a gift you are supposed to use it. So, knowing my drawing talent is a gift, I did what he said...

Jack was also the first person I decided to draw after that long break. I sent the finished result to him, and I'm very flattered that he said I'm probably the most talentet artist he has seen. 💓

I had hoped to be able to see him in concert again some time, but that didn't happen. I'm glad to have seen him and Great White at least once, back in 1989.
