Doyle Phillips RIP

[jesm]

Our condolences to his family and friends. I didn’t know him well just the occasional greeting on the street or coffee shop.
We shared a close mutual friend who yesterday passed on a few cherished nuggets about his dear friend.

He knew Bob Dylan in the mid 60s.
He founded the first US periodical devoted exclusively to rock music. Yes, before Rolling Stone or Crawdaddy.
He drew psychedelic posters for Bill Graham concerts in SF’s Fillmore West. Some still may be viewed thru Google.
He was a Summer of Love leader in San Francisco in 1967.
In later life he helped organize and operate our English Language library.
He was active here in Democrat’s Abroad.
He led anti-Trump protests on the steps of Teatro Juarez.
He was our US State Department rep for GTO Capital.
He loved and cared for animals.

He led a full life and we will miss him.
