  • Kid Congo Powers Double Record Release Party
    KID CONGO POWERS DOUBLE RECORD RELEASE PARTY KID CONGO POWERS DOUBLE RECORD RELEASE PARTY Tonic, March 3, 2006 Kid Congo Powers is celebrating the release of two albums on March 3, 2006 at Tonic. The first, Solo Cholo, is a career-spanning compilation focusing on the legendary guitarist’s work as a vocalist and songwriter from 1985 to the present. The second, Philosophy and Underwear, is the debut recording of his current New York band, Kid Congo and the Pink Monkey Birds - in which Kid not only sings, but also plays blistering dual guitars with ace Jack Martin (Knoxville Girls, Honeymoon Killers, etc.). After twenty-five years in the recording business (The Cramps’ Psychedelic Jungle was 1981), these two albums are the first full-length recordings that focus on Kid’s songs. The event also marks New York Night Train (www.newyorknighttrain.com) webzine’s debut as a record label. For this momentous occasion Kid has gathered an all-star cast of collaborators, friends, and favorites that will amount to one of the most unusual assemblages of underground figures in downtown history. The headliner is of course Kid Congo and the Pink Monkey Birds. The Birds will also back up Thalia Zedek (ex-Come, Live Skull, Uzi, etc.) on a few Gun Club numbers (Zedek is the vocalist who reminds Kid most of Jeffrey Lee Pierce). Another highlight of the evening is the reunion of the original New York version of Congo Norvell – Kid, Sally Norvell (actress, ex-Norvells, Prohibition, etc.), Jim Sclavunos (Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and Vanity Set, ex-Sonic Youth, Cramps, etc.), Paul Wallfisch (Botanica, ex-Firewater, Love and Rockets, etc.), and Brian Emrich (film composer, ex-Foetus, Toasters, etc.).

  • Kid Congo Powers
    KID CONGO POWERS The gigantic tone of Kid Congo Powers’ open-tuned guitar is one of the more readily identifiable sounds in the history of underground rock. Best known for his contribution to the development of the contemporary noise guitar with The Gun Club, The Cramps, and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds in the 1980s, Kid’s spent the last fifteen years as a sideman (Make-Up, Mark Eitzel, Angels of Light, etc.), as a partner in Congo Norvell and Kid and Khan, a member of garage rock supergroup Knoxville Girls, and, most recently, the leader of Kid Congo Powers and the Pink Monkey Birds. What’s important about Kid’s resume isn’t only that he played with some of the best bands of all time, but that he did so during their finest hours, from The Cramps’ Psychedelic Jungle to Nick Cave’s Tender Prey to Angels of Light’s How I Loved You, Kid’s always had a knack for being with the right people at the right place at the right time. The last five years however, Kid’s gradually quit relying on his luck and taken matters into his own hands, emerged as a world-class songwriter and a distinctive vocalist. Jump-starting his career when he and Jeffrey Lee Pierce formed The Gun Club in 1979, Kid Congo Powers left the obscure new band in late 1980 when he was offered the universally coveted gig replacing Bryan Gregory in The Cramps. Though Kid was already a Cramp when The Gun Club recorded their classic debut Fire of Love (1981), a number of songs that he helped write and develop appear on the record.

  • Horror Hosts in the News
    HORROR HOSTS IN THE NEWS The following article about The Cramps mentions classic Cleveland horror host “Ghoulardi” and then NY’s current favorite hipsters, “Ghoul A Go Go” in the Summer of 2003. GRAVEYARD SMASH The Cramps creep into town with fiendish tunes and attitude Article By JOHN CHANDLER Portland Tribune; Fri, Jun 6, 2003 Most normal, God-fearing folks take one look at the Cramps and head for the nearest exit, muttering hasty excuses about picking up the kids from 4-H. The band's ghoulish makeup, tattoos and leather duds are more than just rock 'n' roll accouterments: They are talismans meant to ward off normal, God-fearing folks. The Cramps mean business, bub. Born in 1976 -- in Sacramento, Calif.; Akron, Ohio; or New York City, depending on what biography you're reading -- the Cramps were conceived by skeletal singer Lux Interior -- now somewhere in his middle 50s -- and his fishnet-sporting, guitar-slinging soul mate, "Poison" Ivy Rohrschach. Since their humble beginnings, the Cramps have hatched several cracked classic albums such as "Songs the Lord Taught Us" and "Gravest Hits." They became huge, iconic figures in Europe and played outrageous shows at such legendary New York dives as CBGB's, the Peppermint Lounge and Max's Kansas City. One of their most memorable early shows -- captured on videotape in 1979 -- took place at a rather different venue. "Yeah, it was the Napa State Mental Hospital," Lux recalls. "It was really fun playing there. We were kind of wondering if the patients would all be, like, comatose or crying.

Vit et travaille à Paris et Dakar. Communiqué de presse Robert Capa, le célèbre photo reporter de guerre, disait, “si la photo n’est pas bonne, c’est que vous n’étiez pas assez près“. Youri Lenquette a toujours été près. Dans l’univers paranoïaque des backstages et des entourages de groupes, il entrait là où le reste de la presse essuyait une rebuffade parfois brutale. Comme s’il avait dégagé des ondes, émis des ultra sons qui indiquaient aux musiciens qu’il était des leurs. Sans faire pleurer dans les chaumières, Youri a grandi un peu tout seul. Très tôt, donc, il avait déjà plus vu, vécu et bourlingué que la plupart de ses futurs collègues. Nous fantasmions sur un “mode de vie rock“. Youri l’avait déjà, à certains égards, testé. Peut-être ça, après tout, que les musiciens sentaient. Mais s’il avait le privilège d’être admis de l’autre côté de la barrière, autour du feu de camp, son expérience, son instinct, son ange gardien, lui faisaient toujours garder la bonne distance. “Assez près“ pour que la photo soit bonne, mais pas trop proche non plus de la famme, afn de ne pas s’y brûler. Combien de compagnons de route des groupes se sont carbonisés à leur contact.
