Buck Cherry - Crazy Bitch
Songs of debauchery and excess
Ive seen some humorous confessions on these boards lately I wont name names Im sure none of the members are currently using drugs or abusing alcohol anyway, but these admissions of events that took place in our wild youth got me thinking that Ive always loved a good song about this subject and I wondering if there were any other fans? Im gonna go with a classic but there are just so many good ones . Commander Codys “ Lost in the Ozone again”. Seems like a decent Sunday afternoon topic?
@toddsyr Thats one reason I like these threads about music. I saw Ian Dury open for Lou Reed at the Roxy in LA in the 80,s I would have never even remembered that song or band if you would have not mentioned it. Thanks! |
@bikeboy52 You’re welcome. That’s one of the many joys of music. It brings up old memories. I never saw Ian Dury and The Blockheads live but that song played a lot on the FM dial back in the day. Being in high school at the time, we adopted it as our anthem. Our anthem now is Work & Sleep & Pay Those Bills. |
@bikeboy52 - I saw that Lou Reed/Ian Dury show here in San Francisco on that tour! |
Because it's really a single unit, a dark cautionary tale / Monkey's Paw reflection on the perils of debauchery and excess... Antichrist Superstar by Marilyn Manson. Most of their catalogue is mediocre or less, but this work is an intense journey through a nightmare fever dream that just happens to have great production values as well. |
Ian Dury & the Blockheads: "Mischief," "This is What We Find" and "Plaistow Patricia" The Jack Rubies: "Tijuana Bible" Kinks: "Sunny Afternoon," "Dandy," "House in the Country" and "Second-Hand Car Spiv" Dandy Warhols: "Horse Size Pills" and "Get Off" Iggy Pop: "Lust for Life" David Bowie: "Cracked Actor" and "Hang on to Yourself"
