Here's a great clip of Brian Eno, seeming
uncomfortable in the spotlight, but looking
every inch the latter-day glam-rocker while simultaneously sounding every inch the
proto-punk. The tune is his 1974 single
'Seven Deadly Finns', which I bought on
release, but subsequently lent to a friend
and, of course, never saw again - d'oh!
Do please feel free to join in towards the
end of the song, with, what Julian Cope once
described as, Eno's 'psychedelic yodeling.'
(A tip of the titfer to the good folks over
at Tune Doctor, for posting my true story of
Ramones rage! Read all about it here.)
KK. I saw him stepping out of an upmarket toy shop in Norwich a few years ago. I've often wondered what he was doing in my neck of the woods. perhaps he was trying to launch a Junior version of Oblique Strategies.
OPC. Frank Ifield on gas - brilliant!
SB. Glam rock accident in a jumble sale - another gem!
Wow! You weren't kidding about the yodelling, were you? Great stuff.
ReplyDeleteI see him down here by the coast every now and again. He looks as well and contented as you could imagine, bless 'im.
Fran Ifield on gas...love it!
ReplyDeleteNice. It's difficult to equate the two Enos - here a glam rock accident in a jumble sale and the well known egg-head producer of today.
