The career of Mick Farren , for many a blind spot , ended the year in a
swan song .
The founder and pianist of the sixties group The Deviants is no more.
Collapsed into each other on July 27 this year during a reunion concert with The
Deviants in the Borderline in London . Mick suffered for years from an incurable
lung disease and had his performances regularly interrupted with an oxygen
bottle . The release of his latest zieleroersel , 'Black Vinyl Dress' , brings a
final tribute to a talented musician and writer .
After three LPs with The Deviants Mick kept the revolutionary and anarchist
it a day and he dove into music journalism . Wrote for NME , and not let himself
without witness with short stories and poetic lyrics .
The Deviants brought a mix of dreamy sixties pop and anarchist precursors
of punk period . After 40 years of evolution, you can only conclude that Mick
Farren similarities with Jan Decorte : the essence compressed into a lump of
emotion.
When " Black Dog Circle ' first slowly through your speakers blaring and
stirs your soul slowly but surely , you want more. Listen to " Cocaine +
Gunpowder ' and get carried away by an afro -beat , a mantra . No powder
needed!
The lyrics are often witty and direct, and rather dark colored in their
entirety . Writing style reminiscent of the late Kevin Coyne ( " I do not like
it here , nothing works' .... oh yes indeed ! ) .
" Pick up the Scissors ', however, is an up - tempo song with a nice Zappa
content . High voices contrast pleasantly with the bass voice of Mick . And it
really works!
In 'Beautiful Woman' are meager vocal qualities are nicely packaged by the
backing vocals .
'Cigarettes ' allows you to gently rock back at a steady pace in a
beautiful musical arrangement , interspersed with ' something between two
cigarettes .
This 'Black Vinyl Dress ' shows you how to mix . Poetry and music catchy
and inspiring The guitar Andy groans , swings melodic and reinforces the
narrative texts Mick . Spoken word with a measured accompaniment . Mick Farren
will remain etched in our memory as a musical word artist. Now we can all dream
of the woman in a black vinyl dress !
