There's been some breathing space here at Den towers of late with not much going down in this corner of the web. I've ditched an annoying 'quest' book about some bloke going round the pubs of the UK but have been digging the Scott Pilgrim series and also snarfing down books by Bret Easton Ellis and the ongoing 'Transmetropolitan' fest. I have had the nose to the grindstone sniffing out those sides which has included dips into the Chez flea market and a great jaunt to Chorlton/ Manc. So here's what's up for offer from the man described as looking like Bazooka Joe minus the eye- patch...
The penny didn't drop with this one for quite some time. The previously blogged Joe Black appeared on this page doin' his black face version of this. Sandie, however, wigs out in a fashion sadly lacking from the bulk of her other sixties recordings. I've always had a soft spot for Sandie but on this one she finally gets some beef behind her instead of the twee stuff Chris Andrews was churning out. Keep 'em peeled for 'Route 66' heading this way v. soon.
Another under-rated rug is pulled out from under me in the fashion of these costume wearing popular in the US folks Paul Revere and the Raiders. An American doing Mick Jagger doing an American gets my vote! Shit dance moves tho.
Further minings into the archives have led me back to a band that featured in the early days of the Den blog- Cupids Inspiration. This is the flip of 'Yesterday has gone'- nice phat rock number on the pea-green NEMS label...
