JACK MALONE’S TRIBUTE TO MAN BURIED BY VOLCANO
When I last saw my Roosevelt Grade School buddy Jack Malone in May 2009, he gave me the LP his company distributed honoring Harry Truman who is an iconic figure associated with the Mt. St. Helen’s volcanic eruption. In a narrative that Jack wrote for the album cover: “On May 18, 1980, Mt. St. Helens blew its top and according to authoritative sources, buried Harry (Truman), 84, under hundred of feet of ash and debris.”
“A Jack of all trades” is how Mr. Malone sees himself with a career that included managing an FM rock radio station in the Portland market. Now there’s got to be a book in 1970s FM rock in a major market, but Jack didn’t write it as far as I know.
The LP is a collection of blue grass/country songs similar to the sound track of several popular movies.
