About Me |
|
Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, in the Fifties and Sixties, the embodiment of the urban melting pot. I surely was melted, a mix of black, white, Puerto Rican with a faint trace of Cherokee. My grandfather was head waiter at Lundy’s, the world-famous Brooklyn seafood restaurant. Those were the days when it was honorable for a black man to be a waiter, an elevator operator, a soldier or a porter, like my father was at one time. I used to ride along with him on the Pennsylvania Railroad, the New York to DC line, and there was nothing more exciting than sleeping in the double deckers and watching the towns roll by. Lou Reed surprised Garland with a guest appearance at the Lokerse Feesten. Check out the video below! Garland and Lou Reed rocking the stage with Hail Hail Rock ’N’ Roll at the Lokerse Feesten in Belgium. Beyond Race Magazine - new issue out now!
