14. MR SKIN

SPIRIT From the album 'Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus' and was the fourth album by the American rock band Spirit TOOLIE turned me onto this band thru this song, and I now have a HUGE respect for SPIRIT songs as a result. The singer Randy Craig Wolfe met Jimi Hendrix at Manny's in New York City in the summer of 1966 and basically was given Jimi's 'seal of approval' on being a psychedelic badass singer/guitarist. Jimi called him 'Randy California' and as a result he kept that name until the end of his life in 1997. The rest? HISTORY... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randy_Califo... "Mr. Skin" by the band Spirit (1970) is a funk-rock character sketch inspired by their bald-headed drummer, Ed Cassidy, addressing themes of sexual liberation in America. Written by Jay Ferguson, the lyrics explore, in a lighthearted manner, a "skin" persona, with the music featuring a prominent jazz-rock horn section. Inspired by Ed Cassidy: The song is a direct reference to Spirit’s drummer, Ed Cassidy, who shaved his head and was nicknamed "Mr. Skin" by the band. "Sex in America": Writer Jay Ferguson described the song's theme as "sex in America," aiming for a fun, provocative vibe rather than a deeply political one, according to Classic Song of the Day. Cultural Context: The lyrics, which include lines like "I can bring you pain, I can bring you sudden pleasure," are described as a "colorful character sketch". Musical Influence: The song's funky sound was heavily inspired by Sly and the Family Stone, featuring a horn-driven arrangement that was a departure from their previous work.
