JUNIOR ASPIRIN RADIO SESSION 13: EXERCISES IN STYLE



JUNIOR ASPIRIN RADIO SESSION 13: EXERCISES IN STYLE

'It doesn't seem to me that anyone has discovered much that's new since the Illiad or the Odyssey'
Raymond Queneau

'The audience, which consisted largely of bikers, was unusually hostile, and Iggy, as usual, fed on that hostility, soaked it up and gave it back and absorbed it all over again in an eerie, frightening symbiosis. "All right," he finally said, stopping a song in the middle, "you assholes wanta hear 'Louie Louie' we'll give you 'Louie, Louie.'" So the Stooges played a forty-five-minute version of 'Louie Louie'"
Lester Bangs

Devised and presented by Dan Fox, words by Raymond Queneau

Damn! That Zappa one was on my list but I got so lost in Louie Louies I clean forgot to include It. Glad you like the podcast!

A truly great podcast and unfortunately a lost cover tradition. Richard Berry, sadly forgotten and unknown to the masses for the most infectious r'n'r song of the century. Your list is testament. And Mr. Queneau would be proud to boot. A recommended addition for the future — The Fall performing Berry's song on the Live 1977 disc. Thanks for this.
