Blondie Is a Group...No, Really!

By Mr. Moderator on Jan 13, 2008


I've learned that my Tin Machine video featuring staged stage diving is no longer available on YouTube. Part of me is sad, while another part of me is proud of having shamed the owner of said video into taking it down. However, I sense you're disappointed. To make up for the teaser of a long-forgotten Tin Machine video, I'm offering you three momentous looks back at the band - honest - Tin Machine. Enjoy, and feel free to share your memories of bands involving already-famous solo artists that really were a group. Really!

First up, an interview with the group - the whole group - on Arsenio.

Next, the countdown to the group's first televised performance!

I've never had the urge to get up on a stage, especially just to jump off of it into the arms of a bunch of sweaty kids. But I liked Tin Machine's first album. Reeves Gabrel may have a strange approach to the guitar, but I like the first Tin Machine album way better than anything Stevie Ray Vaughan did with Bowie.

Hunt and Tony Sales were also the rythym section for Bob Welch after he left Fleetwood Mac and formed the band Paris. I'm pretty sure no one heard their first self titled album outside the band and their families, but Big Towne 2061 is a pretty cool album, and Soupy's kids sound pretty good on it.

Soupy's kids are Iggy's LUST FOR LIFE rythm section. They're great! Reeves Gabrels used to play with Thurston Moore and Lee Ranaldo in the Glenn Branca Guitar orchestras. The credentials were all intact, and maybe this should have been better, but this felt old and out of touch when it happened. Still, I'm not saying it's good, but I had the 2nd album on cassette, and I liked it. "breakfast music for terminators?!?" WEAK!
