The proto - Glam beats on "Spirit" were provided by Norm Mayall , of Sopwith Camel and Blue Cheer's last three albums.  
    What are you reading now?
    You're exactly right about "Spirit In the Sky", John, as it is mentioned in the book, however, that's about it. A point was made about this "pre-glam" sound that was starting to take shape, along with John Lennon's "Instant Karma".

  • Other Hobbies/Interests Note - I know this is too long and too self - righteous, . It will be whittled down, shortly. I like playing my own music, live, and Deejaying when I can. Which is almost never. Have'nt had much luck with bands . Back history, roughly, is as follows - Born in an Elevator (1982.) - Cheezy, Wurlitzer organ - led, Cramps, Dead Kennedys, Psychedelic Furs and Clash covers, with 50's - 60's R'n'R fueled Noo Wavish originals. Part time Metal Guitarist from Sussex, UK, and almost, future Butthole Surfers' future Drummer sitting in with us . I'm not making this stuff up. Neutron Prom - 84 - 85. Solo . Ranting over my own tapes . Attempted guest spot on a Butthole Surfers ' show. Bombed. Elvis From Hell 84 - 86 . Dressed as the green zombie Elvis envisioned by Gary Panter, started out with a more horrific stage show, still singing over tapes. Fronted the group, Graceland, spring - summer, '86, then took up the Guitar, and went solo, again. Unnamed Rockabilly band, Summer, '86. COULD HAVE TORN DALLAS A NEW ASSHOLE, not that they did'nt have plenty, already (Don't get your dander up, we have more than enough here, in Chicago, too ....). 1986 - Present - Performing under my own name, on Vocals and Guitar, with occasional guest players, and one-shot projects, most notably with GPHO member, Psycho * Davy . We've performed together a few times as Sick, Sober and Sorry aka The 13th Floor Elvis Impersonators ( That's what I call us. Psycho *Davie calls us You Know and Who or The Ring Dang Duo. We're both right. ) There's recently posted video on you tube..... Daughter of Frankenstein - 1994. Garage Punk cover band, with a Gories /Demolition Doll Rods set up, two guitars, drums, no bass . Long Gone John heard our practice tape and said he liked it .....With Theresa Drda (Greaseballs. ) on Drums and Michelle Primeaux ( Naughty Fairies .) on Lead Guitar. Brian McMahon Mit Das Volt (1996.) Solo project, ex - Electric Eels. Members of Velveteen Loveseat, Functional Blackouts, and even Sky Saxon's band. Also sang backing vocals with Screamin' Jay Hawkins and Andre Williams. Bloodshot Bill and I perform together, sporadically as Bloodshot Battles Overdrive. Not a band, a mutual admiration society. Like going to Lucha Libre matches, collecting records, coffee table books, videos, DVDs, horror memorabilia, and other things that I don't need, but, can't live without .
