Scalawags by Jim Christy5/31/2023 Christy went to Canada in 1968, to evade the Vietnam war draft and became a Canadian citizen. He befriended one of his closest friends and mentors, Floyd Wallace, a hobo, a former boxer and a former soldier of fortune, and learned to ride the freights at a young age. Christy began running away from home around age 12. "Boxing was in the air," he once recalled. God's Little Angle is a blend of gritty spoken word dialogue and dirty, earthy, jazz, blues and eclectic electronically fused music.īorn in Richmond, Virginia on July 14, 1945, Jim Christy grew up in South Philadelphia, a tough area featured in his autobiographical novel Streethearts, and also featured in Sylvester Stallone's Rocky movies. This LP is like no other music/poetry production. God's Little Angle is possibly the most unique and well put together spoken word albums you will ever hear come out of New Zealand. Trillion collaborates with Canadian based poet and writer Jim Chirsty.
