Fred is one of my all time favorites and the stories have always painted Fred as a talented, drug addled miscreant that fled the music scene to escape the drugs and the stress, as if he didn't enjoy his own music anymore at all.
Apologies to Fred for believing the hype that is untrue...even from a bit I read in Mojo some years back that supported those stories.

that MOJO article was a trip, most of it nonsensense. Fred would sign postcards, address them to the people he didnt want to see, give them to friends travling and have them mail them from faraway places. That Mojo article made me laugh, with Fred being in Cuba, or France or wherever. The dolphins project was started by Ric Obarry(OFeldman)who now is on TV all the time, and in the documentary The Cove, originally to study them later it morphed into saving them. Fred hated anyone who wanted to try to get him to do anything. Drugs, he didnt hate so much. |
