It as a shame that didn’t last as a partnership. I loved Japan. And mick and Peter together was a dream pairing at the time. For me the year of bahaus would have been earlier . I bought Bella Lugosi the day it dropped on import , by 86 I would say my favourite album would have been the sisters coming along with this at the tail end of all the great batcave bands Youtu.be |

Love Ronnie, she was such a class act. I was at a couple of shows, One my friend Davy DJ'd the open and was totally awestruck by her (Be my baby was literally the first single he got as a child and he credits it with inspiring his musical life (DJ promoter, label owner etc, ) after his set she saw him backstage before he went on and he gushed about the song and asked if she would mind him and another friend standing side-stage for the show, she was fine with it and when she sang be my baby she turned looked at him dedicated it to him and winked. he practically fell over. every one i know who dealt with here had nothing but great things to say (pretty much the opposite of Phil)

Never saw Brubeck unfortunately but did see the sax player Paul Desmond from this band at Bourbon St club (it came out as a live record ) . so here is one from that (he played a whole week I came in via a school booked a set of tickets - the guy who arranged it had a Dad with ties to the Club owner ) Youtu.be |

---------- Post added 25th Mar 2021 at 11:42 ---------- and a cool Ornette story from a Local who has played with a lot of people over the years Ornette - Steve WallaceSteve Wallace
I didn't see Ornette that time at the Colonial but on a later date there, it was heartbreaking when it closed so many great shows there

after posting that ep on FB I now am in a debate on who was the first punk-funk sound leading into post-punk. certainly, this EP is the first big English one, but the contortions were on no new york a year earlier produced by Eno and evolved to this about the same time that ep came out. - likely i will end schooled since the guy I am working it out with has worked in the record business for 73 or so (and he said this ep far outsold Joy Division or Magazine at first (joy division took about 6 months to take off here) Youtu.be |
