3 videos from Mr. Arthur Brown, acid-soaked brain behind the music of short-lived psych-rock band The Crazy World of Arthur Brown. If you've never seen him perform, now is your chance to have your mind COMPLETELY BLOWN.PS: First documented use of corpsepaint (left)? You decide.
"Nightmare", from the 1968 Peter Sykes film "The Committee":
Video for "Fire", also 1968:
"I Put A Spell On You", from a documentary film about artist Gerald Scarfe (year unknown):
First two vids: the wicked-bad Carl Palmer on drums and the possibly even more wicked-bad Vincent Crane on organ.
ReplyDeleteI'd listen to more black metal if the singing parts were like Mr Brown.
that's a great point, steven. i agree.
