rock n roll photographer
this one is very much about the songwriting....
i have a friend called bp fallon who worked for the beatles...t-rex...led zepellin..a beautiful soul who is now in his sixties....he is now a world class radio presenter and rock n roll photographer..anyway...one night i went to see a band play,and there was bp fallon...slippin and a sliding all over the place takin photos of the band on stage....i was more interested in him than the actual band....he was the one with the most rock n roll spirit..he's been around for all the golden decades of rock n roll..and just watching him from the audience taking his photographs,triggered me to write this song ...the black and white still that come and go throughout the clip are his photographs ..and all the boogalooo of me doing my ironing in the snow at the back of a mansion is because i watched too many luis bunuel films..he was a surrealist..the white mansion is a nod and a wink to john lennons british 'imagine' era.
if youre interested,bp fallon does a great internet radio show called wang dang doodle ,and you can find it on www.breakthruradio.com just click around the deejay list..he's right at the top of it.
