I bade farewell to the peerless, fearless, thoughtful and thankful Sly Stone. www.theguardian.com/music/2025/j...

To my ear, @simonmarksfsn.bsky.social is the finest Washington correspondent in the game. As well as being available in podcast form, his broadcasts can be heard on LBC in the UK.
It was my pleasure to interview him for the New European.
