Kremlin in the background. Snowing... March. Cold as heck. Green Peace initiative to Russia... many tales from that trip – we stayed in a hotel which was policed by KGB informers and the guy who ran contraband to our floor got done by the cleaner (informer)... There was a reception at the Irish Ambassador's place too where a decent amount of Guinness was consumed... Record shop signings at which the crush was so huge the plate glass window caved in...- Greenpeace 1989
