It's a terrible irony that it should be today - Record Store Day - that I have to tell you how shocked and saddened I am to hear of the death in Los Angeles of my dear friend Gary Stewart. I don't think I ever met anyone from any record company who was as passionate about the music they put out as Gary was.
I first met him in the 1980s, when he worked for Rhino Records, an indie label that had grown out of the LA record store where Gary worked. His speciality was putting together CDs by artists that had been overlooked by pop history. Whenever I came to LA, he'd have a double CD retrospective of Johnny Rivers to give me, or an Elvis Costello bootleg. My own CD of obscurities 'Reaching to the Converted' was one of his projects - he came up with the title too.
He was also very active in progressive grassroots politics. He worked, among other causes, with LAANE, the Los Angeles Alliance for a New Economy, working on crucial initiatives like the city's Living Wage Ordinance. Whenever I was in town, he'd give me a briefing on local issues and usually bring half a dozen activists to meet me after the show.
I saw him in February at the Troubadour Club. He'd been instrumental in getting the city council to declare 22nd February as 'Billy Bragg Day'. It was a huge honour for me and it made him smile.
His passing will be deeply mourned by the LA progressive community and by all those in the record industry who genuinely love music.
