Another BoC sound thread

[D.o.S.]

Would you be intrigued by five contrary motherfuckers spewing out a hi-amped post-Elevators conspiracist blues whose unrestrained debut LP opened with a ‘Born-to-be-wild’-alike Biker Rock anthem (‘Transmaniacon M.C.’) with Roky Erikson’s Bleib Alien-gone-to-hell lyrics that imagined the movements of the Hell’s Angels in those final hours just prior to their brutal jackboot policing of the Rolling Stones’ Altamont fiasco? Yeah, me too. And how about if track two of that same debut LP was a fetishist’s anthem named ‘I’m on the lamb but I ain’t no sheep’, whose lyrics celebrated the dubious antics of the Canadian Mounties and what they did with their whips in their spare time? Yup, me three. And just suppose that same rock’n’roll band had all opted for the Jimbo Morrison-fronting-Steppenwolf regulation look (black leather’n’shades each one), except for a Jerry Garcia-styled all-white clad guru who opted for the enlightened name of Buck Dharma? Sounds amazing, don’t it, motherfuckers? Even more amazing when you notice that the singer had shamelessly appropriated Jagger’s ’69 dog collar look 12 months AFTER Iggy. And what if all the song titles were just as intriguing as the aforementioned (see above)? In other words all so fucking obvious or so damned cryptic that merely reading them altogether on an LP sleeve caused them to occupy in your head the larger place and further psychedelicized your already melted plastic brain? And wouldn’t all this be somehow even more intriguing if the major lyric writer was perceptive enough to have flexed his Inner Moron with catchy bastard press quotes such as:

“I like to use naïve, densely stupid terms.” (Sandy Pearlman)

Moreover, if that same band of outlaws had had Patti Smith as their muse and co-songwriter, along with a whole slew of other intellectual rock’n’roll and sci-fi writers (Michael Moorcock, Richard Meltzer, Jim Carroll, Helen Wheels) waiting at their beck and call, could these itinerant motherfuckers have really failed? Add to all this the fact that their super astute producer/sometime lyricist Sandy Pearlman (again) was canny enough to admit that he was, with B.O.C., attempting to meld Alice Cooper’s KILLER with Black Sabbath’s MASTER OF REALITY, and you have a pre-punk rock’n’roll band hip enough to have had The Clash’s Mick Jones successfully petition the rest of his band to have Pearlman produce GIVE ‘EM ENOUGH ROPE. And yet B.O.C.’s current place in the rock’n’roll pantheon is right down the rock’n’roll pan.

Sidebar that screed is the best thing to ever be penned about either BoC or BOC

Also, as to the other, inferior, band with initials consisting of a b an o and a c, Cosmichorus does nice stuff, but Shallow Water for sure.
