EBay listing coming soon
The Troubadour in
West Hollywood was a gathering place for many people in the Southern California
singer/songwriter music scene of the mid-60s to the mid-70s. Among the
frequent patrons on those days were Jackson Browne, Don Henley and Glenn Frey
and other members of the Eagles, Warren Zevon, Linda Rondstadt, J.D. Souther,
James Taylor, Tom Waits, and Jim Morrison and the Doors. I will be doing more
drawings of other sites like the Troub in the upcoming days.

EBay listing coming soon
Another location important to the people in the Southern
California singer/songwriter music scene of the mid-60s to the mid-70s, now
razed and replaced with a shopping center. Janis Joplin died here;
frequent residents included Warren Zevon, Van Morrison, Tom Waits, and Jim
Morrison. The Tropicana was part of the inspiration for
Warren Zevon's song "Desperadoes Under the Eaves" ~ he called it The
Hollywood Hawaiian Hotel.

I have been a fan of J.R.R. Tolkien ever since
I read "The Lord of the Rings" when I was 13. This image is of a
pub called "The
Eagle and Child," which was for many years the meeting place of
the Inklings, a literary group that included Tolkien and C. S. Lewis.
