サマリー
あらすじ・解説
an Broudie and the Lightning Seeds are about to set out on their 35th Anniversary Greatest Hits Tour – aka “beery parties”. He talks to us here about the first bands he ever saw and played in, which involves …
… memories of the Liverpool School of Language, Music, Dream and Pun.
… the secret of seeming enigmatic: “Never finish your sentences …”
… how Three Lions brought a whole new audience and the irony of a singer who didn’t front his biggest hit.
… why the Ramones and Talking Heads made him sell his old records.
… first requirement for success: “being able to make a fool of yourself”.
… when Captain Beefheart forgot he was booked for an art show and painted all the pictures the night before.
… how a part in a Ken Campbell play launched his career.
… seeing the Beatles, aged seven – “Shut your eyes and put your fingers in your ears”.
… when Eric’s in Mathew Street seemed the centre of the universe.
… “for the first time ever I’m not suffering from Imposter Syndrome – I AM THE SINGER!”
… Free, Pink Floyd, Elvis Costello, XTC, Big In Japan and the Sausages From Mars.
… making records that are “an Andy Warhol pop-art splash of colour on a wall”.
