For a song

Suze Rotolo died in February [2011]. She said on NPR in 2008 that Don Hunstein took the cover photo for “The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan” as they were walking down Jones Street toward West Fourth Street Greenwich Village, N.Y. She interested Dylan in Arthur Rimbaud, Bertold Brecht and painting before the pressures of his fame caused her to leave in 1962, inspiring “Don’t Think Twice, its Alright.”

Happily married to producer John Porter today, in 1964 Linda Keith went through the windshield in a car crash driving back from Stonehenge. In Kris Needs’ 2004 book “Keith Richards: Before They Make Me Run” she says of Richards visiting her in the hospital: “He showed me I wasn’t a monster. I wasn’t revolting. And that was Keith.” In Mojo Magazine Keith Richards said “Ruby Tuesday” was written on a Tuesday in January 1967 because Linda had “…pissed off somewhere.”

The Brownfield (Texas) News says Buddy Holly’s high school friend Peggy Sue Gerron is again living in Lubbock, Texas after raising two sons, co-writing a book and being the first licensed female plumber in California.

Lucy Vodden (nee O’Donnell) died at 46 of lupus in 2009. On BBC Radio she said she and Julian Lennon were throwing paint at each other at a double-sided easel in their nursery school the day he painted the picture of her he called “Lucy — in the sky with diamonds.”

“Melodies are memories,” as the Five for Fighting song says
