After reading Keith Richard’s autobiography, I realized I didn’t have “Exile on Main Street,” bought it, and was playing it a few minutes ago. I walked into the office where Mary and Lesley were sitting and said, “Please allow me to introduce myself, I’m a man of wealth and taste…” and Mary said: “You could have fooled me.”
About Lloyd Kahn
Lloyd Kahn started building his own home in the early '60s and went on to publish books showing homeowners how they could build their own homes with their own hands. He got his start in publishing by working as the shelter editor of the
Whole Earth Catalog with Stewart Brand in the late '60s. He has since authored six highly-graphic books on homemade building, all of which are interrelated. The books, "The Shelter Library Of Building Books," include
Shelter,
Shelter II (1978),
Home Work (2004),
Builders of the Pacific Coast (2008),
Tiny Homes (2012), and
Tiny Homes on the Move (2014). Lloyd operates from Northern California studio built of recycled lumber, set in the midst of a vegetable garden, and hooked into the world via five Mac computers. You can check out videos (one with over 450,000 views) on Lloyd by doing a search on YouTube:
That's the kind of reply that will bring you back to earth, huh? My husband has just filled the holes in his Stones collection, and we were listening to just that tune recently. My own personal favorite is Gimme Shelter, oddly enough.
This comment isn't related to your post above, but I was wondering if you have an email address where I could send fan mail. Thanks, Lloyd.
Mary is a gem! You evidently did not have a back up band.
Now that's funny!
