Sinister: Re: Shack, Michael Head & inane ramblings

[Martin]

I look forward to hearing this "Head" album that is being highly
recommended, and I'm not talking about Monkees business though that is a
very fine album too. "As We Go ALong" is a fantastically sorry lament.

Anyway I saw Shack play with Arthur Lee of Love but a few years back and
they were rather good. Arthur Lee is my only musical hero so I went up
to chat to him and he started talking randomnly about taxis to airports.
I think he might have taken drugs somewhere along the line... It's funny
how your heroes can sometimes let you down. He didn't though. If he told
me anything coherent I would have been very disappointed. You only have
to hear Love's Bryan Maclean's recent solo album after years of clean
living to realise Arthur was the man. I didn't wash my hand for at least
4 hours after shaking Arthur's hand and then only because my mum made
me... Now he's banged up some prison cell playing achingingly beautiful
harmonica solos... I hope...

P.S Apparantly I'll be wearing a red carnartion at the Bowlie so feel
free to point and laugh at me (though you won't get any Dairylea).
