Kevin Coyne, ey!

🎶 Oh Mr. Prime Minister,
please won't you ask the Queen
If this is just a nightmare
when am I allowed to scream 🎶

- und dann lässt er am Schluss diesen verklemmten, erstickten Schrei raus,

und ich möchte gleichzeitig lachen und weinen und ihn in den Arm nehmen 🖤

(Und nein, hier keine Verlinkung - in dieses Kaninchenloch der Gegenkultur steigt mal selbst hinab in einer schlaflosen Nacht)

Blame It on the Night Review by Richie Unterberger

At times it sounds like Coyne, or other forces, are attempting to make his music more commercial here, with the full, generic mid-'70s arrangements and occasional horns. That's a proposition as fruitless as selling snow to the Eskimos. Coyne is never going to be a mainstream artist; it seems more sensible to let him rip and be eccentric, playing in acoustic, stripped-down, bluesy contexts. Fortunately, that's what he does on about half the album, sounding his borderline lunatic self on "Don't Delude Me," and opting for an eerie, cryptic mood on "Blame It on the Night," and "Witch," with its flamenco guitars and undercurrent of suspicious paranoia. How not to gain commercial airplay, lesson 14: write lyrics such as "I cannot stand her friends anymore, I will wipe them across the floor" (from "Witch").

Als Jim Morrison 1971 stirbt, war #KevinCoyne als Frontman-Nachfolger von The Doors im Gespräch.

In #Bayern stand er in den 1980er- und 90er-Jahren auf dem "Anti-WAA-Festival" 1986 in Burglengenfeld mit über 100.000 Besuchern oder ein Jahr später auf dem "Blue Danube Festival" in Deggendorf, wo er unter anderem neben Größen wie Chuck Berry, B.B King und Rory Gallagher auftrat.

Er stand auch hinter #Haindling, wäre bald 81, starb aber 2004
