No Condition Is Permanent

Pictured: The late, great “Brother” Wayne Kramer.

You know, youth has certainty. When you’re nineteen years old you’ve got it all figured out. You know what’s coming, how it’s going to play out; you’ve got all the answers. And if you’ve got a few people who agree with you, you’re really certain. And that’s what MC5 and our community—we were all in total agreement about things like politics, the country was heading in the wrong direction. About art and culture. The music we liked was the most advanced and forward. That our band was the cutting-edge band of all bands; we were doing stuff that was more forward. And if you achieved some recognition, that reinforces it. There’s very little self-criticism and looking inward. And very little criticism around us. We weren’t good Marxists; we weren’t that dogmatic. We smoked a lot of weed, dropped a lot of acid, and were having a ball doing what we were doing. Everything was hitting as it was supposed to hit. The politicization came as a result of just living in America in those years, the sixties. We just wanted to be a great rock band; I wanted to be a world-class guitar player, song writer, and performer. When I was younger my goal was just to be able to work in nightclubs. Just have this nighttime world, late-night musicians—that was living to me. In those days there were a lot of clubs to play in. The auto factories went 24/7, so there were clubs open seven days a week, five sets a night, forty-five minutes on fifteen off. We quickly came to the conclusion that we wanted to be the band on the radio rather than the bands playing those songs in the clubs. We wanted to write our own songs, and then we realized we could go on tour and play big venues. Once we saw the model—the British band model once they started touring—we realized it was doable.

— Wayne Kramer, from Steve Miller’s Detroit Rock City: The Uncensored History of Rock’n’Roll in America’s Loudest City.

At Studio One, [Sylvan] Morris was often assisted in his engineering duties by singer Larry Marshall, while at different times, Jackie Mittoo, Leroy Sibbles, Richard Ace, and Robbie Lyn arranged music, ran sessions, and functioned with Morris as de facto producers. Morris recalled: “Coxsone [Dodd] wasn’t there when we was doing the work. Most of the times it’s just me and the musicians. Jackie Mittoo, ’cause he was musical arranger at that time, and when he left, you had Leroy Sibbles.” Sibbles and keyboardist Jackie Mittoo are especially cited by many musicians as unsung heroes whose musical genius guided Studio One into the roots era and enriched Jamaica’s bank of riddims immeasurably. Dudley Sibley echoed the sentiments of many Jamaican musicians when he explained: “You can’t leave out the great Jackie Mittoo. Jackie would hardly go home. Jackie would live at Studio One. Night and day Jackie would be at Studio One, thinking how to evolve this music. Him really play a great part, him a the brainchild in the riddim.” If anything, Sibley’s comments are an understatement, considering Mittoo’s arrangement with Dodd, under which the keyboardist allegedly agreed to compose five new riddims per week—theoretically totaling thirteen hundred riddims during his five-year stint at Studio One!

Pictured: Traffic.

[Producer] Jimmy Miller started working with Traffic in the autumn after their summer spent improvising songs at the haunted Berkshire Downs cottage, at what became his favorite playground, the new Olympic Studios building in an old movie theater in Barnes. Traffic was in Studio Two at the same time that the Rolling Stones were working in Studio One, amongst the first bands to work there, still at the time one of the few independent studios in London. You could tell how much things had changed in terms of how at home artists now felt inside recording studios. Studios had started to become more like social clubs, places to hang out and relax and meet other musicians and swap ideas as much as places to work. You would see Lennon’s Rolls-Royce outside Olympic even if he wasn’t doing a session. With its mood lighting and comfy leather sofas, Olympic was more like a nightclub than the old, austere studio workhorses of the late 1950s and early ’60s.

Pictured: The Funk Brothers w. Little Stevie Wonder (foreground).

Rock and roll was becoming like jazz had been twenty years earlier, with solos and complex compositions and virtuosos, and all of a sudden kids wanted to know who the guitar player was, who the keyboard player was, who the drummer was. When that happened in rock, it happened mostly only in rock. The major exception was James Brown. People say that “Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag,” back in 1965, was the birth of funk, though it’s much more complicated than that: there was barrelhouse piano and Texas blues guitar and the New Orleans sound and a hundred other things that came together, came apart, and came together again. But “Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag” did start the ball rolling on pushing musicians to the forefront. James would call out to his musicians during songs, make them visible as soloists. But James was the exception. Motown didn’t even list its session musicians until 1971, so the Funk Brothers, who were central to the label’s success in every way, were also completely anonymous. Motown had been so good at staying ahead of the curve until suddenly they found themselves behind it. If they had recognized that the Funk Brothers were the Eric Claptons and Jimmy Pages of soul music, they could have secured themselves five more years of relevance.

Pictured: Sylvain Sylvain of The New York Dolls.

The [New York] Dolls instinctively swam with the tide of excess. Their costume regularly included make-up, high heels and women’s clothes picked up in thrift stores. Arthur Kane was the most heavily into drag, sometimes dressing up in a tutu, while Sylvain pioneered the fashion for spandex, a cheap, shiny material which, when worn as trousers, revealed all. ‘The fact that the Dolls wore lipstick connotated homosexual,’ says Bob Gruen, ‘but they weren’t. Somebody asked [singer David] JoHansen if he was bisexual, and he said, “No man, I’m trisexual. I’ll try anything.” This was their attitude but behind the soft pose, they were putting on make-up because these young, beautiful girls liked it.’

The Dolls shuffled the musical deck with which they had all grown up: Rock’n’Roll, the early-sixties Girl-Group sound, the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. They learned in public and flaunted the fact. This made them unpredictable, but their insouciance about lack of musical expertise was inclusive and meant that their audience could grow with them. Although there was a distancing irony, this wasn’t Camp: the Dolls transcended ghastly bad taste through their enthusiasm and the way in which their music perfectly mirrored what they had to say.

Pictured: Pere Ubu.

[Pere] Ubu’s music was never going to be accessible enough to reach an American mass market that had scorned the pop sensibilities of the Ramones and Television. Dub Housing and The Modern Dance passed largely without comment, outside the established havens of Cleveland and New York. Ubu’s primary market was England, where Rough Trade had provided the groundwork by distributing the Hearthan [label] singles, and where Ubu managed two tours in April and November of 1978, both critically acclaimed and well attended. Ironically, despite directly benefiting from the climate established by the English New Wave, Thomas has nothing but contempt for England’s punk exponents.

David Thomas: Punk to us was an alien thing. It wasn’t what we were doing. We weren’t doing loud, thrashing, anti-social, adolescent music. We saw ourselves as being more mature than that, more serious than that. We were embarrassed to be associated with the punk movement. We had done that three years earlier, four years earlier. We were doing the same thing in Rocket from the Tombs, but we had passed that stage and I hate to see things regress ’cause we were very serious about pushing music forward. You hate to see things cycle back which is what they always do.

For lovers of Congolese music, zeal in support of their favourite band was no vice. Like the athletes and spectators at a Saturday afternoon football match, musicians and their fans formed allegiances of great passion. As younger players emerged and new bands formed, music lovers appraised them with reference to their more established competitors. Nearly everyone was a critic, and the continual debate gave rise to the notion of stylistic schools. A new group might be said to follow the African Jazz school or the O.K. Jazz school.

These distinctions were drawn, for the most part, on comparisons between each group’s singers and guitarists. Among the singers, Joseph Kabasele reigned without peer. He was a chanteur de charme, a charm singer in the fashion of Tino Rossi. Kabasele’s voice evoked feelings of passion and sentimentality that Congolese music lovers found irresistible. Congolese singers followed the Kabasele school even if they wanted to sing in O.K. Jazz.

Filmmaker Quentin Tarantino sought to revitalize the hardboiled style with his upcoming film, to which he had given the working title Black Mask (after a popular pulp mystery magazine). He conferred with two friends about the music he would use in it. One of them, a devout surf music chronicler named Chuck Kelley, suggested injecting some early instro-surf classics and made Tarantino a compilation tape. Tarantino, who seems to have believed at the time that surf music began and ended with the Beach Boys, accepted the tape — and the challenge. Over the years, rumors surfaced that Tarantino was listening to this tape of surf instrumentals in an Amsterdam hashish den when he envisioned the entire plot of [Pulp Fiction]. In fact, the script for the film had been floating around Hollywood since the early ’90s.

Like most of Glen Brown’s productions, ‘Tubbys At The Control’ was mixed by King Tubby at his home studio at 18 Dromilly Avenue, Waterhouse. The tiny space was not a recording studio in the conventional sense, nor was Tubby an actual producer until the late 1980s. His bedroom studio was never large enough for rhythms to be created in full, but the space was gradually converted into a sound manipulation unit complete with a machine to cut acetates.

‘Tubbs is an innovator,’ says ‘Prince’ Philip Smart, engineer at the studio for much of the mid-1970s. ‘He didn’t buy his first console, he built it – built the chassis and everything, put all the components together. That’s what he used to use first, until he bought the MCI console from Dynamics, their studio B. It was just that room he had at first. You have a carport, and then the carport is a bedroom and a bathroom, so him turn the bathroom into the voice room and the bedroom into the control room, and he had his repair shop in another little house in the back. His main income was building amplifiers and winding transformers, because he had contracts for hotels that needed transformers for stabilizing the current. The music was an addition, because he had the sound and he always wanted to make his own dubs, so that’s how he started: he bought the dub machine to cut his own dubs.’
