As an official member of the boomer generation, I do not believe it was intended for us to die. We were special right from the get-go — dying wasn't part of our script."

Dude! Tell it to the dinosaurs!

Sylvester

This morning while i was waiting for the waffles to toast, I had the song "Born to Be Alive" going round and round through my head. I must be tapping into a disco wavelength in the galaxy because tonight while working on my final presentation, the deejay at KALX reminds us that Sylvester died in December 16th and reminded us what an exemplar he wss as an out black gay man in the 1970s. Plus this track they're playing is soulful enough to make me want to hear more.

Oh, and so you can rock your next party, here are the lyrics to Born... Born... at the end of this profile:

I say we should just kill the pretty ones at 25--and the ugly ones before they're old enough to reproduce.

Best ever rock woman's response to "Show us your tits!"

“On our last tour [in the U.K.] guys would yell out, ‘Show us your tits.’ But the good thing is that I usually have something to say that shuts them up. The second time I heard that, I was like, ‘I’m not gonna be responsible for showing you your first pair of tits. So keep it in your pants, buddy.’ And the whole crowd just started laughing and applauding."

Would it make any sense to describe her as some hybrid of (old)(good)Liz Phair with Fiona Apple and pinches of Cat Power and Courtney Love for flavoring? No, I thought not...
