Back to Clive Crook's blog homepageLast weekend I went to one of Levon Helm’s Midnight Rambles. I wrote a gushing, and entirely sincere, review of the event for the FT. I suggested “The best show in America” as the title for the article but my editor, I think, deemed this a little over the top. If she had come along I think she might have agreed with me.
[Incidentally, the second picture was miscaptioned. That's Teresa Williams not Amy Helm--to be fixed shortly on the website. Thanks to Dennis and Mari, and to Michael, Michael, and Stacy for a great weekend.]
I have been the FT's Washington columnist since April 2007. I moved from Britain to the US in 2005 to write for the Atlantic Monthly and the National Journal after 20 years working at the Economist, most recently as deputy editor. I write mainly about the intersection of politics and economics.
