Hi Lenny, Wow this really spoke to me . I am one of those long time record collectors and have had this conversation many times with friends about this very topic. It's great to have "Things" or , as you say, be a "Custodian" of such things , but in the end you are not taking it with you. This is why , even though I covet a lot of these "Things" still , as I get on in age , it has become less and less important . The "Stuff" will remain , you will not.

Love Lenny, "Keep On Keepin' On!"

I do listen to Mister Kaye on Little Steven's Underground Garage when I'm roaming around San Antonio. I think of him as being my navigator when I run my errands, etc.

hey Leonard Kaye, what was your Inspiration for 'Child Bride'?

I remember Lenny Kaye when he played at the closing of The Elgin in Manhattan on 19st and 8th ave, he played with the Patti Smith band and was standing by the exit, loading equipment, I asked him to let me into the show because I couldn't afford a ticket I told him I was a neighborhood kid and grew up with the Elgin theater and want to see the place before it was no longer The Elgin which was true, I had been going to The Elgin since the 1960s and now it was the late 70s and it was closing, lots of memories there of my childhood and teenage years, But Lenny said NOPE, I can't let you in. I was kind of surprised, if I had the money I would of happily bought a ticket but I didn't so I did what any neighborhood kid did in the 70s, I snuck in and saw The Elgin and said goodby, now it's the Joyce theater, I've been there once but have no intention of going back it's not the same. As for Lenny he was a decent guitar player I remember he wasn't much on the solo parts but he knew how to build intensity, Patti Smith was in rare form. All in all I had a decent time but nothing like the great shows I used to see at The Academy of Music at 14st between 3rd and 4th ave, also gone. As for Lenny, I ran in to him believe it or not in front of a project building in the neighborhood, I told him the story of nothing letting me into the show and I thought he was going to shit a brick, I told him you see it goes to show you never know who your going to run into in your life, it pays to be nice, I said no worries I got in anyway and said goodnight.

i remember the Elgin...

[@TvDaddyAndTheTabloidArmy]

he went right on being a money grubbing slime

[@WyattLite-n-inn]

Doesn’t surprise me : He was producing a major artist on whose album my friend played guitar , who Lenny constantly referred to as “dickwash “.. Great guy. ​@@TvDaddyAndTheTabloidArmy

Hi Lenny, your point is valid indeed. This one is for you, sir. In fact, your name is the first one on the closing credits. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mp3Hf6OLl9hrsNE
