This band is truly underrated. I have their GH cd and it's the bomb. Dale Bozzio's voice is pretty unique and I think Gwen was influenced by her vocal stylings. Anyone else like them?

Oh and Dale was a style icon too!

Walking in LA
Words
Give
Window

Are the bollocks!

Of course. I ran a thread on them about 4 or 5 months ago.

New Wave approved!

Unfortunately, I don't have a pic handy of Dale wearing the infamous "fish-bowls".

Remember this, folks...ONLY a nobody walks in L.A.

"Words" remains an all-time favorite.

Does anyone know what kind of work Dale and Prince collaborated on? Any good?

Give is a personal fav beyond the usual suspects.

Which album is that on? I confess I only listen to "Words" over and over.

Lammastide said:

"Give" is on the extended "Spring Session M" release, although I am sure it's out on another. MP is one of my favorite all-time groups... perhaps a guilty pleasure but I am glad to know I'm not alone on them!

Did you happen to see last year's "Hit Me Baby One More Time" show featuring "older" artists trying for a comeback? There was a steller performance by Irene Cara and Thelma Houston in the run of the show. MP (or at least Dale) was on it and sang... wait for it... Kylie Minogue's "Can't Get You Out of My Head." It sucked BIG TIME -- unfortunately. I think she might have had a sore throat or something or didn't feel well. Too bad, really, because they definitely deserve another chance!!!!

"Give" is also on...

Give and Surrender Your Heart!!

2 of my favorite new wave songs

my mom had an issue of playgirl with one of them dudes in it...his package wasnt all that...

beyond that...i dont recall any of their music.

Lammastide said:

THe album was called "Riot in English". Shoulda been called "Riot in Gibberish"

Its laughably bad. Not bad meaning good, but bad meaning bad. THe one (suprisingly)good song is "SO Strong". IT sounds a lot like "Annestesia"

[Sounds like a "Calling for a Gay!" topic, so here I am to ring-in...]

Yeah, that would be Warren Cuccurullo you mentioned. He played guitar for Frank Zappa from 1978-80, Missing Persons from 1980-1986, and Duran Duran from 1986-2001. (He was born in 1956!) Try as I did, I can't find any of the nekkid pics on the internet, as he was quite the exhibitionist for a long time. In 1983 he was featured in “Playgirl.” In the late ’80s and early ’90s, he hosted “Privacy Parties” in the nude during Duran Duran’s tours. Fans quickly got used to Warren being someone who might say or do anything, someone for whom no sexual topic was off limits. After the 2000 Duran Duran tour concluded, Warren vacationed in Rio for a few weeks, where he was photographed nude and fully erect for “G Magazine,” a Brazilian gay magazine.

When he left Duran Duran, he made a deal for the production of his own self-modeled adult toy, the “Rock Rod,” which is now available through California Exotics. His website became a vehicle for self-expression in
many ways, but the most infamous is that he filmed adult videos featuring himself with various fan volunteers and porn stars, as well as interviews conducted while he showered. Upon becoming engaged, Warren decided to stop production of the videos and has since taken them all offline.

When he was in MP, he was actually quite hairy. I knew a girl who slept with him and she claimed he was the hairiest MF you can imagine! These days, he sports a shaven head. Here are some pics...

Mental Hopscotch is the shit

oh my god..i think Tom posted a link to his site when it was still all "porn". i checked it out...and was kinda turned on.

Terry Bozio is a drummer's drummer. He's been in a lot of bands (UK comes to mind) but his work on Jeff Beck's "Guitar Shop" is what I listen to most.

Love t/A's comment "musicians posing as new wavers", so right on as usual.

theAudience said:

wow, Gwen even resembles Dale in that picture. just goes to show you that nothing is original. Missing Persons did it first! Can anyone find the fish bowl bra pic?

this is what came up when i googled "fish bowl bra":

C'mon St.Nick ...



...Here's Dale Bozzio with the real deal.

They do a song I love called "Life Is So Strange". They had a very unique sound. Missing Persons and Blondie are my favorite NW Bands
