Anyone wondering why a 3 yr old child was running around Washington Square Park singing, "The Pope Smokes Dope"? This Greenwich Village antihero. David Peel was a constant presence in my childhood eyes.
I met David at the 1997 Woodstock/Bethel Reunion artist food table...He was really fun and colorful and flowery/steely hip...and that party was boss! Hope his memorial gathering in NYC on 4/20/2022 is just as much fun as WOODSTOCK 1997 and then some :=)
Taylor Meade cracking David up with his handkerchief! Two characters the likes of whom we’ll never see again from an amazing time we’ll not see again either.
The American Revolution by David Peel is one of my favorite albums. I love his energetic vocals and songs.

"Marijuana making one think very tightly in a world of confusion and chaos," is the best take away for the day.
Prayers for David Peel ,. he just had a Heart attack this morning.
He is still alive but in critical condition,.
David is in serious but stable condition today
Died. :/
Sad to say but yes,. don't we wish we had him back,. the Lower East Side will never be the same. NYC for that matter..
@@TheRollingStony Party for Dave in five more days 4/20/2022...Ask Paul Derienzo about location etc...
He took a hit of acid a couple of hours before this interview, he is peaking....
A total character......David is buried in a military cemetery I do believe.....There's a lot of tongue and cheek schtikkkk in what he did!!!
Rest in Power.

RIP David
His real name was David Rosario
Poor John ,if he wasn't pushed to live in New Yoik, he might still be alive.
The Pope smokes 💨 Dope.
What on Earth is he on about?
If you lived through the 60's and 70's you would often run into insufferable bores like this, talking loud and saying nothing.
malcocreative those people pretending to have loved his music.were probably the ones who hated it the most
You clearly don't know who David really was...
Nothing more than mouthy petulant child reefer heads.
They didn't get slapped around enough.
If John Lennon said he's alright , then he's alright
