Spreading the gospel!

Post by aza »

so proud reading this interview w Creed Bratton I had to share-

https://consequenceofsound.net/2018/04/ ... saved-him/

"Your entire life has involved music. When I saw the title of your new album, While the Young Punks Dance, I wondered if you got to experience the earliest punk movements in the ’60s and ’70s.

All my parents and grandparents all played music. My grandparents on my mother’s side had a semi-professional band. I played through college and had started making money at 17. I played trumpet for years and years. I don’t know if you knew that, but I was first chair from my freshman year on on classical trumpet. And I could play piano by ear at 14 or 15, not that I’m a really great piano player; I write a little by it now, but mostly guitar.

To answer your question, I had a friend named David Jove, and he had a thing called New Wave Theatre at the period of time I was starting to listen to the punk. And I knew it was very simplistic, but there was something about that raw energy … I loved The Clash. Yeah, of course. And there’s a song I tried on The 80’s called “Hostile Gospel” that is my punk homage, and in it there’s a line at the end that goes, “All you punks are dead … Nuke the punks.” But it’s actually a cool track.

Did you ever get to see The Clash live?

No, no, but my friend Azazel Jacobs, who directed me in Terri, he’s a huge Clash fan. He rekindled my love for that band over just the last few years. I just realized how much I really dug those guys, you know?"

I just looked up “Hostile Gospel” and it’s a hoot.

Creed Bratton talking David Jove! Whoa. AKA David Schneiderman aka The Acid King, the probable Canadian intelligence agent who supplied the drugs for the party the Stones were busted at in 1967. He disappeared before the cops showed up, and turned up in Hollywood, where he became a producer, married Lotus Weinstock and fathered Lili Haydn.
