Bob Quine 1942 - 2004

"Someday Quine will be recognized for the pivotal figure that he is on his instrument — he is the first guitarist to take the breakthroughs of early Lou Reed and James Williamson and work through them to a new, individual vocabulary, driven into odd places by obsessive attention to 'On The Corner' - era Miles Davis ."
(Lester Bangs)

Spooky

(...girl with gun #3...)

'...If you decide someday to stop this little game that you are playin'
I'm gonna tell you all what my heart's been a-dyin' to be sayin'.
Just like a ghost,
you've been a-hauntin' my dreams,
So I'll propose... on Halloween.
Love is kinda crazy
with a spooky little girl like you.
Spooky, Spooky, Spooky, Oh-whoa, all right,
I said Spooky!...'

You can get 'Spooky' by Lydia Lunch here.

Taken from the album 'Queen of Siam'.
If you only know Lydia's work with Teenage Jesus and the Jerks or 8 Eyed Spy this album's gentleness (!) will surprise you.
'Queen of Siam' also features the world's most underrated guitarist, the late great Bob Quine.
