    Robert Quine http://www.furious.com/perfect/quine/michaelcarlucci.html Robert Quine Carclucci at Quine memorial, Carmine Street Guitars, NYC June 2004 by Michael Carlucci (Subterranean Records) ED NOTE: Other than running one of the most righteous record stores in New York, Michael Carlucci was also a close friend of Robert Quine. The Story of the Velvet Underground Bootleg Series Volume 1: The Quine Tapes Quine and I became friends sometime around 1991/92 when I first opened Subterranean Records. Robert and I had 3 things in common: Telecasters, Jeff Beck and The Velvet Underground. While the recordings Quine made of the VU were common knowledge among VU collectors, I for some reason never bothered him about them. Most VU fans would offer him money, trades, their first born, etc. etc. Quine politely told them all no. Then around the summer of 2000, I'd heard that Moe Tucker with Lou Reed's (approval) had approached Bill Levinson (Polygram then/Universal now) with the idea of releasing VU shows as "The Bootleg Series." The tapes started pouring in, 99% of which had already been in circulation as actual bootlegs with everyone claiming they had the original masters. So now was the time to approach Quine. I mentioned (to Quine) what I knew about Polygram's plan. His time had finally come. He told me to make the necessary 1 of 4 10/8/2005 8:07 AM Robert Quine http://www.furious.com/perfect/quine/michaelcarlucci.html arrangements, which I did. I called Bill Levinson, told him all about these tapes.

  • A School for Singing: the Poetics, Politics, and Aesthetics of the CBGB Scene Shaun Michael Cullen Springfield, PA M.A., Humanit
    A School for Singing: The Poetics, Politics, and Aesthetics of the CBGB Scene Shaun Michael Cullen Springfield, PA M.A., Humanities, University of Chicago, 2005 B.F.A., Cinema Studies, New York University, 2002 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English Language and Literature University of Virginia December, 2013 © Copyright by Shaun Cullen All Rights Reserved November 2013 ii ABSTRACT On August 16, 1974, exactly one week after Richard Nixon’s resignation, the Ramones made their debut at CBGB. Over the next ten years, the club would become synonymous with the punk aesthetic that the Ramones embodied. By shifting, however temporarily and by no means completely, the focus of punk studies (and by extension, cultural studies, American studies, urban studies, and queer studies) back to an often disavowed origin point, CBGB and New York City, “A School for Singing” rediscovers a utopian imaginary inherent in that scene often taken to be one of the most shambolic and nihilistic in the history of postmodern arts and letters. Punk was not just a musical movement, it was an artistic event that had wider ramifications, felt across the art world, from the dingiest clubs to the most rarefied art galleries, publishing houses, and runways. Just this past year, the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art opened its fifth most popular exhibit of all time, “Punk: Chaos to Couture,” which features, among other mementos of the punk era, a faithful recreation of the CBGB bathroom, where “all the action happened,” as Patti Smith once quipped.
