Kim Fowley dead. It seems to me that the current generation of rock and roll musicians have become so professionalized that you wonder whether they are getting enough joy out of what is a difficult and frequently under-remunerative career. I mean, would you want to party down with Arcade Fire? Or even play an Arcade Fire side at a party? Make no mistake about Fowley, his was a rock and roll life that embraced it all. Many thanks to Steve Van Zandt for giving Fowley a radio outlet on The Underground Garage: it was Fowley's final gift to us. Here the indispensable Aquarium Drunkard gives us two prime Fowley cuts
