Check out my blog post on the new Johnny Thunders documentary, Looking For Johnny here:  http://revrock.blogspot.ca/2014/11/looking-for-johnny-review-show-534.html

I forget the guy's name....English fellow , put out some albums under the name of The Afflicted Man and The Affected , I want to say from about '79 , into the 80's , perhaps beyond. I Don't think he ever had an official band , just a revolving cast of supporting musicians. 

There was an article about him in Black To Comm , several years ago. I have'nt seen it in a long time. But , I heard one of his albums , recently. It did'nt do much for me. A lot like  a less - accomplished PIL at their most Dub - laden.     IT WAS'NT BAD , IT JUST WAS'NT MY THING. The record sleeve described the music as "Hippie Punk" , MANY years before such a genre phrase was in wide circulation.  I sort of doubt he'd have ties to The National Front if he fancied himself an 'ippie. The accusations don't seem grounded at all. The music , reportedly , bore a Deviants influence , before it was hip.

THERE'S PROBABLY MORE INFO ABOUT AFFLICTED MAN/ AFFECTED on line. Just part of the early Post - Punk generation , when it seemed like anything was possible. 

I don't think I've heard of Afflicted Man, who were they?

I don't know. It's possible . I saw them in that documentary , read a bit about 'em. George Wallace atoned before he died , but , I don't know how many pople took him seriously. Some artists were accused of having far - right leanings without substantial proof. Like the guy in Afflicted Man , he was accused of being a National Front sympathizer.  Madness were even courted by NF members . White guys playing a (Very White.) take on Black music . Tied in , of course , with Two- Tone and Rock Against Racism.   

" If someone thinks I'm Adolph Hitler reborn , fuck 'em. If beating  people up and calling it dancing is Left - Wing , then I guess I'm Right - Wing.  " Lemmy.

I heard Prussian Blue became Liberals.

I'm sure there have been individuals in any well - known , and some not so well - known , religious and / or political organizations , who've opposed Rock 'n'Roll , and others , still , who've supported it , or , at least supported the rights of others to listen to it.

Whackjobs like Generalisimo WANK - o have always been opposed to anything that represents freedom. I don't want to get too political , here. We all know the music and "Lifestyle'' has met with a lot of opposition , from individuals and groups (Ahhh , but , were they individuals in the first place , would they need groups?). 

This is where it goes into conspiracy theory territory:

http://purgingtalon.com/diabologue/2011/02/17/rock-music-illuminati-conspiracy-ask-john-todd/

Are there any people who oppose rock'n'roll from Marxist, Fascist, Jewish, Islamist, or other perspectives? I know the Soviet Union was against rock'n'roll, as an instrument of American imperialism, but were there any individuals? Franco hated it too, so I wouldn't be surprised he would come up.

Darren , I left a comment on your page. Think it was deleted. On the one hand , with all the rare recordings turning up online , there's still enough Cramps fans that would pay to have some of the better ones on LP , or even a CD with some liners and a half - decent cover. Something you can play on your stereo , and  hold in your hand ( HUH HUH...).

So , despite the availability , today , of stuff we did'nt know existed , why do these shysters have to repackage another boot that has'nt even hit the two year mark (Though I first found that Club 57 recording in 1987 , on cassette.).

As for The Phantom , a T-shirt! How cool is that? You should be proud. "Love Me" will never diminish in greatness,  beer commercial notwithstanding.  I wonder what Lott would have thought of that? It would have meant some much - needed revenue , were he still alive. BUT , I think he had some idea of how much people love that record. I found an old Dutch comp , recently , with the alternate "Love Me" . I did'nt know it existed , prior to that. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOP ! Let's go.

Have a good week , man. John.

All over at 'Trash, Garage Garbage and Other Delights'

Enjoy.

Double the Clorox and you might start liking his music.

 RIGHT AWAY , STEVE , I  THINK ALBINI IS ONTO SOMETHING , but , it's hard for me to read such a long article on the idiot box , here.  I'm adjusting to new glasses , and my focus could be alot better. i poured 3/4th of a bottle of Clorox down the sink (Not all at once) in an effort to clear up a nasty clog. The fumes are irritating my eyes a bit , tho' I've stayed out of that area.......ok , none of this means much , but , that's why I liked Steve Albini's old column in Forced Exposure. He'd talk about music , and stuff not related to music , and made it all make sense.  Some of his little local references I did'nt get til I moved here.        i never found myself becoming a fan of his music , but , his week beats my life , so , hey.... 

man , you are so right , it's like you just told me the sky is blue.

I liked "Not Everybody's Jesus" , to a point , but, that's the only ANYTHING by The Fleshtones I've ever tried to trade back . They would'nt take it !!!!

That Fleshtones album that Buck produced sucked weenie warts. SOunded like 3rd rate folk rock

Steve ,again , sorry , I've read some , but not all , of this.

The Albini productions I did like are the ones other people did'nt like , part. The Fleshtones and The Mentally Ill. The former sounded that much better after the weak as last weak's tea production by Peter Buck......     The Stooges LP/CD , not a single discernible guitar solo on what would prove to be Ron Asheton's swansong effort....OK , maybe I missed one. It's just like Radio Birdman's reunion album. It's GOOD , but , Deniz Tek sounds like he's getting sideman's wages.

It may take me a while to read this. I'll try to put my opinions of Albini and his music on the backburner.

I think he has something to say about the state of the music industry , don't get me wrong.  He's certainly become more directly involved in the past 20 years or so. No one wants to upset the applecart. To his credit , Albini wants to derail the fucker.

Albini speaks in Melbourne about the advantages of the internet, the death of the major label system, copyright law and that ‘purple dwarf in assless chaps’
