Back in the early 1980s, I used to have photos of Cristina Monet Zilkha, that I’d cut out of The Face magazine, on my wall. In one picture she seemed to be walking a pair of ferrets through a country house’s library! She was glamorous and mysterious and talented and exotic. And I was smitten!
I even got to know her quite well over at Facebook, as well as you can on social media. and liked her at lot. Sadly, she died three years ago but luckily for us we still have the music.
THINGS FALL APART has been my favourite Christmas song for almost half a century now and it has never outstayed its welcome.
