The Subterraneans - My Flamingo download song

It's great to see so many others recognize this song as the absolute classic that it is. And I'm presuming that the woman in the picture is the subject of the song? Flamingo seems like an apt metaphor.

Apathy is worth the price of admission alone for Kent's telling of attending an MC5 gig in a London pub with 2 men and a dog as the only audience. I kid you not, damned hysterical. Kudos to Kent for turning me on to so much good music in the 70's NME.

the B side is much better - about Hermione (Letter to) Demoriane

Be kind to yourselves, read Kent's Apathy For The Devil book. Also The Dark Stuff

sounds a bit like steve jones on backing vocals....well they did share the same 'interests'

To me this is a copper-bottomed all time classic.Five Star Talent.

Loved this song when it was released and still do, In Kent's book he claims "it escaped". He was working with the Only Ones but I do not know if they are on this.

He was very high on drugs writing those lyrics.

chryssie and nick were pretty chummy in the early seventies.

i used to have this single - thanks for posting. he did some tracks with peter perrett of the only ones, at least one has come out on skydog (chinese whispers) but i cant find it... f anyone out there wanted to upload - go for it! It was around this time he was in love with Hynde so the comparisons are hardly surprising.

Was this really about Chrissie Hynde? I mean I love this song and diminished sevenths as much as anyone else but she kind of smoked it.
