But that music is fantastic.<BR/><BR/>I'd put my money on the hippie chick played by Milla Jovovich or Jodi Kramer (Mitch's sister).

By that point Richman had long turned his back on this, his most brilliant, album and started singing about ice cream men. But as this album had only been released in 1976 (some years after it was recorded) we all wanted "Roadrunner" et al. Added to this disappointment, Richman decided to play this large barn of a theatre without amplification. I was about 5 rows back downstairs and still had problems hearing him. The Clash were in the front row upstairs and spent most of the concert telling him exactly what they thought about wasting a whole load of dosh on a ticket for somebody they could see but not hear (this was before the Clash could afford to waste money). It wasn't the best concert I've ever been to but it was memorable.MadPriesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15120376342802143188noreply@blogger.com
