Salute Kim Fowley, who died yesterday. Who was more important for rock & roll, in the grand scheme? Total character. It would be easier to list the things he didnt do. They tried to make him the villain in that crummy Runways movie but he was obviously the hero. I loved his great exploitation stuff like this blatant ripoff of Van Morrison. What a great record. I never talked to him but was in the same room a few times. I seem to recall Rachel from the Detroit Cobras violently tackling him at the Magic Stick, back when she did that sort of thing.
