What did it mean to taste the maggots in the mind of the universe? Well, it meant all of it: the lack of self-knowledge outlined in “Free Your Mind,” the consumerism and short-sightedness in “Eulogy and Light.” It was writing that moved away from prose and even poetry into a kind of sloganeering. That made it compact, mysterious, and memorable. But [“Maggot Brain”]’s immortality came from Eddie Hazel’s guitar solo, which occupied most of the rest of the ten-minute track. I remember recording the solo, of course. It’s possible I’ll never forget. Eddie and I were in the studio, tripping like crazy but also trying to focus our emotions. There was a band jam going, a slow groove I knew he could get into, and we were trying to launch his solo. Before he started, I told him to play like his mother had died, to picture that day, what he would feel, how he would make sense of his life, how he would take a measure of everything that was inside him and let it out through his guitar. Eddie was the kind of player who rose to a challenge. If you gave him instructions or a prompt, he’d come around to it. And when he started playing, I knew immediately that he understood what I meant. I could see the guitar notes stretching out like a silver web. When we played the solo back, I knew that it was good beyond good, not only a virtuoso display of musicianship but also an almost unprecedented moment of emotion in pop music. That was the missing ingredient that arrived in time for that song; it was maybe the first time that our emotional ability as artists matched our technical ability as players.

Her hand, which up till then had laid on the back of the sofa, she now placed on her knee. I stared vacantly at her fingers tracing the plaid pattern of her skirt There was something mysterious about it, as if invisible thread emanating from her fingertips spun together an entirely new concept of time. I closed my eyes, and in the darkness, whirlpools flashed before me. Countless whirlpools were born and disappeared without a sound. Off in the distance, Nat King Cole was singing “South of the Border.” The song was about Mexico, but at the time I had no idea. The words “south of the border” had a strangely appealing ring to them. I was convinced something utterly wonderful lay south of the border. When I opened my eyes, Shimamoto was still moving her fingers along her skirt. Somewhere deep inside my body I felt an exquisitely sweet ache.

Pictured: The Undertones.
‘We were extremely angry young men, and it was a way of getting it out. We lived in Northern Ireland and the option was to go and join the IRA. It was an option that lots of friends of ours took. I didn’t want to join up, out of simple fear. The Undertones was a way of getting out of that situation. People used to ask early on why we didn’t write songs about the troubles: we were doing our best to escape from it.’

In one of the few books available in the UK on Indian Music, R. & J. Massey devote just two pages to the sounds [Bollywood film music] listened to by the majority of Indians, talking angrily of the effect “this facile orchestration, these plagiarized melodies from foreign sources, and the mixture of native and alien instruments…have on the musical sensibility of the Indian people. This orchestrated mush has been blaring away in thousands of villages for over a generation and has now started to influence the folk music of the peasants. This music stems from the very soul of the people, and it would be a gigantic tragedy of the concoctions of the smart musicians in the Bombay studios were to injure so rich a tradition.”

Pictured: Lux Interior & Poison Ivy Rorschach of The Cramps.
[When asked what Lux & Ivy did on Halloween.] Gee, I don’t hardly remember a time when we weren’t gigging on Halloween, but when we lived in Hollywood, Ivy would get dressed up as a sexy witch and there was this stairway that went down to the door outside of our apartment — we lived on the second floor — and it had a handle at the top of the floor that you could pull and it would open the door at the bottom of the steps. So we’d play weird theremin music, and when the kids would come they could see her through the glass door walking down the steps, and when she got halfway down I would open the door from above, so the door would open by itself. We scared a lot of kids.

One passion and one only, woman, might have arrested him in this universal disdain that was rising within him; but this too was exhausted. He had tasted the sweets of the flesh with the appetite of a sick man, an invalid debilitated and full of whimsies, whose palate quickly loses savour. In the days when he had consorted with the coarse and carnal-minded men of pleasure, he had participated like the rest in some of those unconventional supper parties where tipsy women bare their bosoms at dessert and beat the table with dishevelled heads; he had been a visitor likewise behind the scenes, had had relations with actresses and popular singers, had endured, added to the natural and innate folly of the sex, the frantic vanity of women of the stage; then he had kept mistresses already famous for their gallantry and contributed to swell the exchequer of those agencies that supply, for a price, highly dubious gratifications; last of all, sick and satiated with this pretence of pleasure, of these stale caresses that are all alike, he had plunged into the nether depths, hoping to revive his flagging passions by sheer force of contrast, thinking to stimulate his exhausted senses by the very foulness of the filth and beastliness of lowbred vice.

Pictured: Pérez Prado.
The naysayers that first night at the Zenda were dancers who had experienced the Palladium. They were unimpressed by the shuffle-steps of the largely Mexican-American crowd; with their pegged trousers and zoot-length coats, the guys looked nothing like New Yorkers. Which points to an interesting divide: most of Prado’s fans were linked to those western parts of the Spanish Empire which had imported comparatively few African slaves and where ‘Indio’ culture remained strong. Cuban and Puerto Rican stars ruled North American cities where immigrants from the Caribbean basin and its slave-built economies lived. One can also speculate whether cocaine, the drug of choice on the Pacific slopes of the inter-American mountain chain, may have fuelled [Pérez] Prado’s nervous, hyper-energetic style, in contrast to the sensual, rum-soaked vibe of most Cuban music. Prado sold millions of records, topping the US charts with ‘Cherry Pink and Apple Blossom White’ and helping create a dance craze that drove thousands onto dancefloors across America. But east of that other geological divide, the Allegheny Mountains, the music and the dancing were of a completely different order. New York never embraced Pérez Prado.

Pictured: Clarence “Fuzzy” Haskins of Parliament/Funkadelic.
The rest of [Funkadelic] gradually slipped, as George [Clinton] was consistently raggedy from the start, and the slick look began to unravel, as each singer gave up on the suit and developed his own image: Grady [Thomas] had the look of a genie, Fuzzy [Haskins] was in long johns, Calvin [Simon] donned a wizard’s pointed hat, and George resorted to ripping holes in hotel sheets, poking his head through, and heading onstage. Visually, the band appeared like a group of ghetto circus clowns, with an overamped rock sound that never seemed to end. Priding themselves on playing until the crowd would leave, Funkadelic (and their Parliament vocalists) became local legends, and their first album, Funkadelic, was just as badly mixed, endless, and unforgettable as one of their concerts.

Pictured: The Attack.
So far he had been dabbling, but at the 1926 ball, [Gerard Vernon Wallop] Lymington’s first, Harry [Crosby] set the tone of the following three full-throttle orgies. The motif was Incan, and he rubbed himself down with red ocher and wore a red loincloth and a necklace of three dead pigeons. But before the ball there was a supper party—if a champagne punch made from forty bottles of brut, and five each of whiskey, cointreau and gin, may be called supper—given in the library of 19 rue de Lille for eighty students and their girls. Lymington was there, and the Crouchers, and a Foreign Legionnaire, and Harry’s lawyer. Caresse [Crosby, Harry’s wife] wore bare breasts and a turquoise wig, and at the ball won a prize of twenty-five bottles of champagne for the Crosbys’ group by riding around the ballroom in the jaws of a papier-mâché dragon propelled through the Salle Wagram by a couple of dozen drunk students. Harry passed out and woke up next morning stinking of dead pigeons and sticky with paint, in bed with Lymington, Caresse, Lymington’s girl (who was angry that he had not troubled to make love to her) and several others, newly met.

Though she was an official group member since Showcase, [Michael] Rose reveals that Puma was absent for the recording of Sinsemilla, the album that got the group a contract with Island records in 1980. ‘When we record Sinsemilla, she wasn’t there for some reason and me have to sing the harmony. We just put her face ‘pon it, and the album run ‘way.’ Along with the herb anthem title track, Sinsemilla offered poetic reasoning on a range of human topics, including the human race’s unnecessary division on “The Whole World Is Africa.”
‘The whole inspiration with that is how earth set up,’ Rose explains, ‘and the everyday life of the Rastaman, the fighting, and Babylon at war fi land. A earthquake separate the land. If you look at the world and see how it was one thing, but because the people them fight so much, it have so much negative vibes that the earth move. If people more ‘pon a neutral level, where everything free and people just live natural life, that mean you have a different vibe, but you have to pay for land, you have war, man capture, take ‘way. That just push off a whole negative thing inna earth, so [some] place stable and some place a move.’
