Phil Marcade of The Senders with Stiv Bators of The Dead Boys, as captured  by Eileen Polk back in 1978.

“Landing in the middle of the NYC punk scene, Marcade is introduced to former boxer Steve Shevlin by Johnny Thunders. In 1976, he and Shevlin form The Senders — a raw and dirty rock and roll band, with a rockabilly/blues mix and a punk sensibility. Peter Crowley, former Music and Art Director of Max’s Kansas City, recalled, “The Senders should have been huge. They had it all: looks, chops, and excellent rock ‘n roll taste.” With Shevlin on bass, Marcade was the band’s original drummer, but moved to frontman, and, by 1978, the lineup included guitarist Billy “Wild Bill” Thompson and drummer Marc Bourset, with Danny Ray often joining them on saxophone.

Although the band never reached the heights it should have, nobody can doubt their longevity. In 1981, as Marcade writes, “All that was left of The Senders was one deaf guy [Shevlin had lost his hearing], one in the nuthouse, and two in the dope house.” They played what they thought was their final gig at The Peppermint Lounge.

In 1989, Marcade received a call from a record company asking if The Senders could be put back together. With Ritchie Lure replacing Shevlin, and the other three back on track, they played for another 13 years.

"Little Women" Posthumous Reunion: Final Resting Places of the People Behind the Novel and Its Adaptations

As a fan of the YouTube channel Hollywood Graveyard and the "Posthumous Reunion" pages on FindAGrave.com, I thought I would make a similar tribute to the people behind Little Women and its best-known screen adaptations. This is a guide to the burial sites (if they exist) of all the adaptations' leading actors and creative team members who have died, as well as those of the Alcott family and their friends, for anyone who hopes to visit them someday.

Blondie, le glam rock article

Deborah Harry, née le 1er juillet 1945 est une fille du New Jersey, l’une des premières femmes à chanter au CBGB : le fameux club « Home of underground rock de Manhattan » en 1974 le fief du punk rock à l’ambiance déjanté. Egérie de Warhol, innovatrice dans sa musique et ses choix vestimentaires, elle s’est toujours bien entourée et assumée avec son groupe Blondie. Elle est à la fois douce, drôle et vertigineusement délirante.

On aime cette icône glamour et rock avec son groupe Blondie présente dans tous les tabloïds connus et reconnus.

«��Debbie Harry Pink » par Mick  Rock

Période Warholienne (1985)

(Polaroids de Warhol chez Taschen)

Elle fait partie du monde underground de Warhol comme le fut Basquiat ou Grace Jones mais Warhol lui donna un peu plus pour sa carrière, un peu de son art rien que pour elle.

Son portrait en 1985 sur Apple, des pochettes d’album…

Le monde du Punk

Elle chante avec ferveur et hargne depuis les années 70. Elle naît dans le punk rock, le monde de la nuit et fut remarqué pour sa punk attitude.  Comme nous l’explique Pascal Fiorini dans son film documentaire de  2018 « Atomic Blonde ».

Un documentaire

Extrait du communiqué de presse

« Deuxième femme la plus photographiée du monde après Lady Diana, « sorte de Barbarella sous acide », selon Iggy Pop, Debbie Harry grandit dans la classe moyenne suburbaine de l’Amérique des années 1950, alors à son apogée avant les grandes remises en question des décennies suivantes. À 20 ans, elle part seule tenter sa chance à New York. Un temps Bunny Girl pour le Playboy Club, elle finit par trouver un job de serveuse au Max’s Kansas City, la cantine des plus grandes stars – Lou Reed et William Burroughs y sont des clients r��guliers. « 

DES TUBES de 1974 à 2017

Avec son groupe Blondie, ils débutèrent leur carrière en 1974 avec Chris Stein son acolyte et les tubes s’enchainèrent. Amie de Bowie, Iggy pop et toutes les rockstars du moment, elle collabore avec le producteur des Ramones.

Elle s’est toujours adaptée à son temps mêlant chanson d’amour, ballade, période disco, new wave avec son groupe Blondie, une grande tournée pour ses 30 ans de carrière Parrallel lines et pour ses 40 ans de carrière, un nouvel album en 2017 Pollinator. Elle joua  sur toutes les scènes prestigieuses.

Disque d’or, numéro 1 des hit-parade, elle surprend et est adulée dans le monde entier.

Elle collabora avec d’autres artistes dont Beth Ditto, proche de la Haute couture toujours à la page…

Une rétrospective « Me, Blondie and the advent of Punk » à Londres fut organisé en 2015, les plus beaux clichés de Chris Stein à redécouvrir de la carrière du groupe et un livre fut édité.

Elle a aujourd’hui 76 ans, voici l’un de ses derniers clips en 2017!!  Elle assure toujours !!
