  • Long, Tall Stacia - the Six-Foot Lady with the Two-Way Sex Life Penthouse 1974
    Long, Tall Stacia - The Six-Foot Lady with the Two-Way Sex Life Penthouse 1974 What makes Hawkwind concerts rather different from those offered by the current crop of rock bands is the fact that they possess a 42-28-39 asset called Stacia. At the magic moment when the music really starts getting under your skin, Stacia makes her entrance - dancing, miming and generally interpreting the sounds in her own, very unique fashion; usually wearing little but greasepaint. With the above-mentioned statistics and standing six feet tall, Stacia is an impressive lady: as she so rightly says, "If I could get my waist down to 18 I'd have the same shape as Sabrina." Though she is now an indispensable member of Hawkwind, her onstage gyrations started very informally. "I saw the band in Exeter," she recalls, "and got invited to a rehearsal. Then I went with them to a concert in Redruth. We were all bombed out of our heads and I asked if I could dance onstage. So we found some greasepaint, I made up and on I went." Stacia joined Hawkwind full time in 1971 but she insists that she has had no formal dance training. "I was kicked out of ballet school when I was 10 because I was too tall. Besides, if you enjoy expressing yourself, training schools can ruin whatever talent you may have." Her dancing used to be "strictly acid freak stuff" but now Stacia - no surname forthcoming, incidentally- is making it her business to establish a rapport with her audience.

  • American Punk: the Relations Between Punk Rock, Hardcore, and American Culture
    American Punk: The Relations between Punk Rock, Hardcore, and American Culture Gerfried Ambrosch ABSTRACT Punk culture has its roots on both sides of the Atlantic. Despite continuous cross-fertiliza- tion, the British and the American punk traditions exhibit distinct features. There are notable aesthetic and lyrical differences, for instance. The causes for these dissimilarities stem from the different cultural, social, and economic preconditions that gave rise to punk in these places in the mid-1970s. In the U. K., punk was mainly a movement of frustrated working-class youths who occupied London’s high-rise blocks and whose families’ livelihoods were threatened by a declin- ing economy and rising unemployment. Conversely, in America, punk emerged as a middle-class phenomenon and a reaction to feelings of social and cultural alienation in the context of suburban life. Even city slickers such as the Ramones, New York’s counterpart to London’s Sex Pistols and the United States’ first ‘official’ well-known punk rock group, made reference to the mythology of suburbia (not just as a place but as a state of mind, and an ideal, as well), advancing a subver- sive critique of American culture as a whole. Engaging critically with mainstream U.S. culture, American punk’s constitutive other, punk developed an alternative sense of Americanness. Since the mid-1970s, punk has produced a plethora of bands and sub-scenes all around the world. This phenomenon began almost simultaneously on both sides of the Atlantic—in London and in New York, to be precise—and has since spread to the most remote corners of the world.

  • Glam Rock by Barney Hoskyns 1
    Glam Rock By Barney Hoskyns There's a new sensation A fabulous creation, A danceable solution To teenage revolution Roxy Music, 1973 1: All the Young Dudes: Dawn of the Teenage Rampage Glamour – a word first used in the 18th Century as a Scottish term connoting "magic" or "enchantment" – has always been a part of pop music. With his mascara and gold suits, Elvis Presley was pure glam. So was Little Richard, with his pencil moustache and towering pompadour hairstyle. The Rolling Stones of the mid-to- late Sixties, swathed in scarves and furs, were unquestionably glam; the group even dressed in drag to push their 1966 single "Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow?" But it wasn't until 1971 that "glam" as a term became the buzzword for a new teenage subculture that was reacting to the messianic, we-can-change-the-world rhetoric of late Sixties rock. When T. Rex's Marc Bolan sprinkled glitter under his eyes for a TV taping of the group’s "Hot Love," it signaled a revolt into provocative style, an implicit rejection of the music to which stoned older siblings had swayed during the previous decade. "My brother’s back at home with his Beatles and his Stones," Mott the Hoople's Ian Hunter drawled on the anthemic David Bowie song "All the Young Dudes," "we never got it off on that revolution stuff..." As such, glam was a manifestation of pop's cyclical nature, its hedonism and surface show-business fizz offering a pointed contrast to the sometimes po-faced earnestness of the Woodstock era.

  • The Velvet Underground By: Kao-Ying Chen Shengsheng Xu Makenna Borg Sundeep Dhanju Sarah Lindholm Group Introduction
    The Velvet Underground By: Kao-Ying Chen Shengsheng Xu Makenna Borg Sundeep Dhanju Sarah Lindholm Group Introduction The Velvet Underground helped create one of the first proto-punk songs and paved the path for future songs alike. Our group chose this group because it is one of those groups many people do not pay attention to very often and they are very unique and should be one that people should learn about. Shengsheng Biography The Velvet Underground was an American rock band formed in New York City in 1964. They are also known as The Warlocks and The Falling Spikes. Best-known members: Lou Reed and John Cale. 1967 debut album, “The Velvet Underground & Nico” was named the 13th Greatest Album of All Time, and the “most prophetic rock album ever http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTpZBIJzRM1H- made” by Rolling Stone in 2003. GhQN6gcpQ10MWXGlqkK03oo543ZbNUefuLNAvVRA Ranked #19 on the “100 Greatest Artists of All Time” by Rolling Stone. Shengsheng Biography From 1964-1965: Lou Reed (worked as a songwriter) met John Cale (Welshman who came to United States to study classical music) and they formed, The Primitives. Reed and Cale recruited Sterling Morrison to play the guitar (college classmate of Reed’s) as a replacement for Walter De Maria. Angus MacLise joined as a percussionist to form a group of four. And this quartet was first named The Warlocks, then The Falling Spikes. Introduced by Michael Leigh, the name “The Velvet Underground” was finally adopted by the group in Nov 1965.

    The Dicks Top: The Dicks in the early 1980s. Photo: Mark Christal. Bottom: The Dicks in 2005. L to R: Buxf Parrot (bass), Gary Floyd (vocals), Pat Deason (drums). Photo: Carlos Lowry. 4 The Dicks The Dicks were confrontational right out of the gate. A seminal band, and not just because singer Gary Floyd sometimes threw condoms filled with fake cum into the crowd. By all accounts, the Dicks challenged their audiences and revealed new possibilities. They made their concerts a hell of an experience and created memorable political music with a sound that was completely their own. The Dicks formed in Austin in 1980. They relocated to San Francisco and changed personnel halfway through the duration of the group, before breaking up in 1986. When one thinks of early hardcore punk music in Texas, a small but critical list of bands comes to mind immediately: the Big Boys, Dirty Rotten Imbeciles (DRI), Butthole Surfers, Really Red, the Stains (later renamed MDC), the Offenders and the Dicks. The Dicks first came to the ears of many with a three song 7”, The Dicks Hate the Police . The band re - leased this 7” in 1980 on their own Radical Records label (by the way, no relation to the more well known R Radical label that Dave Dictor from Stains and MDC created soon after). The song “The Dicks Hate the Police” is an exceptionally memorable and passionate first statement for a band. These lyrics by guitarist Glen Taylor remain stinging and painful, especially while being delivered in a voice that is both mournful and pissed off at the same time: Daddy, Daddy, Daddy Proud of his son He’s got a good job Kills niggers and Mexicans We’ll tell you something and it’s true If you can’t find justice it’ll find you The popular Seattle-based band Mudhoney covered the song as “Hate the Police.” This brought the Dicks’ music to the attention of many thousands of people that might not have heard them otherwise.

  • Audiophile Recording Issue 15
    High-fidelity audiophile recording David Johansen & The Harry Smiths What does an Australian recording engineer, a small blues ensemble, and the front- man for a ‘70s glam/punk band have in common? And who the hell is Harry Smith? Greg Simmons finds out… very self-respecting sound engineer should own a couple of high fidelity audiophile recordings. Apart from their intrinsic musical value, they serve as good reality checks and provide welcome relief from the heavily Eprocessed sounds of popular music. They’re also ideal for evaluating audio equipment. But what makes a recording worthy of the title ‘audiophile’? Audiophile recordings are made to appeal to hi-fi enthusiasts and lovers of the natural sound of acoustic instruments. They are typically recorded direct-to- stereo in churches and similar acoustic spaces, and use a very simple but high quality signal path. The purest of all audiophile recordings are made with a single stereo microphone and recorded in one take with no EQ, compression, reverberation or additional process- ing. Beyond this ultra-purist ‘warts and all’ approach, it is not uncommon for an audiophile recording to be edited together from multiple takes, allowing a perfect performance to be created. It is also not unusual to see one or two spot microphones reinforcing the sound of Born to be… an engineer: Barry Wolifson created an audiophile weaker instruments, or giving them more focus in the recording with attitude. recording. A touch of reverb may be added if the recording is too dry, but compression and EQ are usually avoided whenever possible. In comparison to the heavily processed and exciting sounds of popular music, audiophile recordings tend to sound bland, uninteresting, and sometimes even sterile.

Johnny Thunders in Friend Concert Johnny Thunders Review by Joe Viglione Johnny Thunders was always hit or miss in concert; like fellow underground icon Nico, he could be brilliant and sublime or utterly boring on-stage depending on what he had injected or absorbed at any given moment. If you happened to have witnessed either artist in both good and bad shape, it was easy to detect when and if either one would have the magic. Now here's the good news: despite the VHS feel to this multi-camera shoot from Club Citta in Osaka, Japan (taped on April 3,1991 -- yes, the very month he died), Johnny Thunders is very much on and rips through 22 songs that sound good and -- dare it be said -- professional. To understand the difference, you have to have seen Thunders when he was, say, unprofessional. Some nights he was toast, but here he is a rock star and is taking his craft seriously. The DVD opens with a solid "In Cold Blood," the Jimmy Miller-produced song that launched a new phase of his career in Europe just eight years before his passing.
