Our Friend, LD Beghtol: 1964-2020

Uncle LD twice wrote for New Escapologist and he sang at our final party. He was a force of nature.

His enthusiasm and spontaneity were something to behold. That he should fly all the way from New Jersey to Scotland to play at this event with our Reggie Chamberlain-King was entirely his idea. It was an important and beautiful, highly memorable, event. We’ll miss him and his ineffable presence. Thank you for the good times, LD.
