Thank you Hank and Decline for thinking of me with those excellent beat snippets. Also great to see the god-like genius of Scott Walker get a mention too...

Re: Groovin' at the I Spot -

Very cleverly, I've cut and pasted all the rare groove  on this topic, and sent it to all the sycophants and mediocrities that I know on Facebook, in a vainglorious attempt to prove that I am indeed The Ace Face.  It will be of course be lost on them, as they busy themselves posting inane and vacuous comments to each other everytime they post a photograph of themselves having a really good time with their chums from work.  Tomorrow morning they will awake with a mild hangover and masturbate wildly over narcissistic photographs with comments from their buddies such as "Gosh you're so cool", "Wow, London! London! London!!!!!", "Circus de Soleil is so enriching", "I'm an antipodean and work in the highly skilled service industry, I don't actually do anything other than BS and lie on my CV about Mandarin Chinese language skills and academic qualifications I've doctored in Photoshop 7. I am a Project Procurement Manager for a project worth 500MM USD and I've never worked on a project before!" 

Meanwhile, I shall be contemplating when Flavor Flav was the living embodiment of the cayote trickster figure and was going to lead us all with clocks going backwards to the Aztlan porn Oscar awards where Public Enemy was the opening act for Elvez.  People say I did a lot of shit in those days, I'm not so sure, it seems more real than now....It could have been all so different.....

"The Ostrich" by The Primitives

One of the secret weapons of the Velvet Underground was Lou Reed's Ostrich Guitar Tuning, where all the strings were tuned to D. It got its name from the 1964 novelty single "The Ostrich" by The Primitives, a pre-Velvet Underground band fronted by Lou Reed. Originally only a studio project, the song about a fake novelty dance generated enough interest to put together a band for a few live gigs. And amazingly enough, that touring version of The Primitives featured John Cale, Tony Conrad, and Walter DeMaria.

I'm also a big Velvets fan Hank. Great to see some of those clips. I also love the style of everyone who hung around the factory. Some of the shots of Warhol's parties show Ivy guys mixing with druggy debutants, fashion casualty art critics and raggy arse boho's. Bit like this forum really (!)
