Just when you thought you had him pegged-rusted railway girders, smokestacks, petrolheads and lugubrious self-harm in the leisure-suit celebritocracy, Jinx Lennon sinks his arms to the elbows in the barrel of molasses that is atomised, free state anonymous Ireland and plucks out a gem that would make Burt Bacharach proud. The Orange Cranes Of Greenore is Ginsberg and Hal David on their holidays in Louth-certainly. But it is also an indication of just how deep Lennon’s reserves actually are, and just how tender and surprising his imagination can be. Andy Williams sings Eraserhead. If Kavanagh was a mystic on a five-bar gate, Jinx sits on a milk churn,

wired to a beautiful industrial moon. / PAT MC CABE

''A brilliant soul singer, a cross between Johnny Cash, Joe Strummer, and Ian Paisley!''  -- Keith Allen - Actor -

CASSAVETES

 

A FAMILIAR FACE(LEFT BELOW ) SEEN HERE WITH BEN GAZZARA

IN ''HUSBANDS'' FILM MAKER/ACTOR JOHN CASSAVETTE'S MOVIES ARE DISTURBING,FRESH AND DOWNRIGHT UNCOMFORTABLE TO WATCH AND THERE ARE A NUMBER OF THEM CURRENTLY POSTED UP ON YOU TUBE IN THEIR ENTIRETY INCLUDING THE TOUR DE FORCE ''A WOMAN UNDER THE INFLUENCE'' WITH GENA ROWLANDS AND PETER FALK.

jJust on one more note there was a bit of a YOU TUBE orgy over xmas and one of the movies we viewed was the forgotten Australian classic WAKE IN FRIGHT from 1971 which is a magnificent piece of work made by Canadian filmmaker Ted Kotcheff,which pissed off a lot of people ''down under'' when it came out due the rawness of the many characters contained within .Gary Bond stars as Peter Grant a schoolteacher who ends up for an overnight stay in outback town Bundanyabba on his way to a vacation in Sydney.He has a few drinks and gambles all his money away thus beginning a descent into hell.Donald Pleasence is here too and is great.Hope they release it soon on DVD
