‘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.’

— Feargal Sharkey, singer, 1990, as quoted in Jon Savage’s England’s Dreaming: The Sex Pistols and Punk Rock.

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.”

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.’

After the commercial failure of Vintage Violence and Church of Anthrax, I figured that I wouldn’t mess around with rock and roll any more, that I would do straight classical music. Yet the first thing I did when I went into the studio was put down a song called ‘King Harry’ which is sort of reggae — I love that music. Anyway, there is rock and roll on The Academy in Peril, but I don’t know where it stands. It has three rock and roll pieces: ‘King Harry’, ‘Days of Steam’, and ‘The Philosopher’. Ron Wood played slide guitar on ‘The Philosopher’. I really dove into this album and tried to approach it the same way I had approached the Nico albums, with a lot of overdubbing. This took a long time.

Pictured: Slinger Francisco, a.k.a. The Mighty Sparrow.

He loved the flash, style, and humor of the Black players and valued them highly as “running partners” and customers. In his speech, dress, and body movements Eddie imitated the Black manner and was good enough at it to be accepted by the players as a “crazy dude,” a “bad motherfucker” who had “plenty, plenty, plenty soul.” He ran the place as he damn well pleased, which invariably led to trouble with the police.

Eddie was committed to partying and “acting crazy” as a way of life. Attempts by other club owners to get him to “clean up his place” (translation: “get rid of the niggers”) were greeted by him with total contempt. He antagonized police, other club owners, and anyone else he considered “square,” and reveled in his own defiant stance. After two in the morning, when bars are supposed to be clear of patrons, he would lock the door, draw the curtains, and party with the players, laughing, loud-talking, snorting cocaine, and serving drinks after hours. When he particularly felt like letting off steam he would take out one of two pistols he kept for the purpose and blast a few holes in the wall. After a few years, the wall panels were thoroughly perforated.
