Chris Knox post=stroke updates
Hi – Yep I’m still banned from seeing Chris until my cold departs. Apparently he has just had a nice morning of pancakes with friends & is in fine form. His walking is improving & he has had some nice musical moments with a friend singing ABBA songs with him last week.

Chris recorded this one in a studio for the first time in 25 years, leaving behind the ambient construction noises of his Grey Lynn neighbourhood.
He has joined forces with new friends bassist and guitarist Jol Mulholland (Gasoline Cowboy) and drummer Stephan Neville (Pumice) to capture seventeen new sound recordings.

I always loved the Tall Dwarfs’ work on “Abbasolutely”,……so it’s great to hear that news!
Maybe ABBA is the “key” to recovery? Hmmmm….? But I don’t know if I’d suggest watching “Mama Mia” with him? Even though I didn’t yet watch it myself, my wife saw the play and said it was “cute”. I say,”But how much cute can I stand?!” Ha!
This would be cause for great wailing and gnashing of teeth if this neurological perversity hadn’t afflicted Mr Knox many years ago… sadly, the stroke can’t be blamed!
Mr. Knox is in my good thoughts constantly.
I remember seeing Chris do “Honey Honey” many years ago at a gig in Hartford, CT, USA. I met him briefly–such a sweet guy! His music was and is so important to me. I wish I could be more than a random voice offering best wishes from far away. Warm thoughts in your general direction, for sure. If nothing else, this has gotten me back to doing music again–can’t waste a moment!
