So I’m starting to catalog and place online the vast — and I do mean vast — archives that Jesse and I have collected over the years. As I was sorting through some audio, I came across a tape that Jesse Glass had recorded with Martin J Rosenblum and Steve Nelson-Raney in the spring many decades ago.

So, we’ll offer the full audio up here shortly — but what really struck me (just glancing at the photo) was how much a grizzled Jesse looks like a grizzled Joaquin Pheonix.

If ever a biopic were to be made of the Glass life — I’d cast Pheonix in the lead role.
