The Scenics/Little Johnny Jewel

"A nine-minute detonation of Television’s only release at the time, 1975’s “Little Johnny Jewel” single, stretched out into a bludgeoning as if they anticipated “Marquee Moon!” Jack Rabid, The Big Takeover From NEW PART IN TOWN, recorded in 1976 by Toronto's The Scenics. Their earliest recordings. Please leave a comment or give us a like! Cheers! "It captures the intensity of a band who were well ahead of their time in performing such punky scorchers.” Canada's national music paper EXCLAIM!*@# “ "Little Johnny Jewel was never part of our regular rotation—we’ve only ever played it four or five times. Very occasionally someone would say “Little Johnny Jewel”? and we’d wade in, and find out what it was this time. Whoever was playing bass would sing. Then it would sink back beneath the waters, disappearing for another year or two." (From the New Part in Town booklet's 8000 word "Scenics 1976" essay. Video text in black is also from the essay!) LP available at: https://supremeecho.bigcartel.com/pro... LP includes a sticker and a booklet with 8000 word essay by Andy Meyers and Ken Badger, artwork, photos. CD/Digital at https://thescenics.bandcamp.com/album... CD includes an 1800 word essay. "The songwriting confidence is incredible... The band’s ability is on full display... thoughtful arrangements are flush with arpeggiated guitar and three-part vocal harmonies....excellent, forward-thinking proto-punk.” Nick Odorizzi MaximumRockNRoll “Starting pistol New York proto-punk...and their own intense, weird, sparce ’n’ spiked art-barbs... this is fascinating.” Jack Rabid, The Big Takeover The video footage: Scenics footage filmed 1978 (with Brad Cooper on drums... Audio from album is Mike Cusheon on drums.) The rest of the footage is by Lutz Mommartz, an experimental German film maker who has allowed his work up to be used/abused via creative commons. Mommartz is considered to be one of the pioneers in the film genre known as the "other cinema". The short blasts of abstract colour patterns are from a 1970 three minute short entitled "Bedienungsanleitung" which translates to "operating instructions" or "user manual". The rest of the video is from 1975's "Flugelschlagen", a 26 minute film which is part of a trilogy. Interestingly the word doesn't have a direct English translation, with one suggestion being "Wing Flapping".
