Going through
my old college yearbook last nite this picture fell out. I had
forgotten all about it. The date on the back of the photo is
11/12/70.
It's from when Shep appeared for a show at our student center, at
what was then New Haven College and is now The University of New
Haven (Connecticut).
Shep wrote
this introduction for a book called American Snapshopts published
in 1977.
Declassified Promo 45rpm
A promotional 45rpm was distributed to radio
stations when the
"Declassified Jean
Shepherd" album came out.
From the second cut on the album:
"The Emergency on
the Turnpike or the Ralph Nader Blues"
