RALPH. Coffee Jazz and Poetry

Ralph Alfonso has lived in Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, and Oakville. He's a beatnik poet, musician, writer, designer, photographer, illustrator, record label owner and more. For over 10 years, he lovingly hand printed a monthly zine (RALPH, Coffee Jazz and Poetry) on a 1940s Gestetner mimeograph machine (now collected in two books). Currently in Montreal, Ralph is still all over the pop culture map and hopefully he can reconcile many of his loves here.
