Jr. Walker No Shows Execution Concert


When Junior Walker and the All-Stars were a no show at San Quentin for the execution vigil of Stanley Williams, a reluctant Joan Baez came forward. To protestations of "Oh, I couldn't possibly" and "I don't have a song prepared," she sang a soulful spiritual. Of course, Walker was slated to do his number one hit "Shotgun," an unofficial anthem of a generation. Said Baez, "That punk-ass Dylan beat me to Hurricane Carter," in a high five with "BJ" Farrell. "Where is he now?" Meanwhile, it was reported that inside the facility, Scott Peterson and Charles Manson 'kited' chess moves between their locked down cells.
