Sensational Alex Harvey Band post

Okay, well, I have finally had a moment's peace wherein my Cribs kick has subsided to a dull, omnipresent hum - which is to say I don't have multiple tunes at once careening through my atrophying mind (but the day is young) - I can at least thank my lucky stars that I'm not in Mike's shoes up in Chicago, where he has fostered an obsession with the Sensational Alex Harvey Band's psychedelic glam pub rock.



What we've learned:

1. Shit like in this 1973 performance, old Alex is already, like, 38, which has to be sexy in some sort of way

2. He shoulda been in AC/DC (or maybe he was?)

3. Watch the video and try not to wince when the guy in harlequin makeup (!) is on-screen...then, the longer you are wincing, know that you LOVE THIS (or so I'm told)

Also:


Right on, Imants!
