"Over the years I have learned that what is important in a dress is the woman who is wearing it."

"I have often said that I wish I had invented blue jeans: the most spectacular, the most practical, the most relaxed and nonchalant. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity - all I hope for in my clothes."

"I participated in the transformation of my era. I did it with clothes, which is surely less important than music, architecture, painting ... but whatever it's worth I did it."

"The most beautiful clothes that can dress a woman are the arms of the man she loves. But for those who haven't had the fortune of finding this happiness, I am there."

Wha?

2008-05-09T11:34:00.001+01:00

[Greenwich Village - New York]

Cafe Wha? is a club in Greenwich Village in Manhattan, New York City that has been home to various musicians and comedians. Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Bruce Springsteen, The Velvet Underground, Kool and the Gang, Peter, Paul & Mary, Woody Allen, Lenny Bruce, Joan Rivers, Bill Cosby, Richard Pryor, and many others all began their careers at the Wha? During the 1960s, it was owned by Manny Roth, uncle of David Lee Roth.
A little known appearance of the Jimi Hendrix Experience occurred on a weekend in early August 1967. Are You Experienced had not yet been released in America but word of their recent Monterey Pop Festival appearance was beginning to spread. The Café Wha? had scheduled The Animals along with Richie Havens for a Friday night show, but when people began to arrive they learned that lead singer Eric Burdon had cancelled due to a sickness with one of the band members. Instead, Havens would headline the show with the Jimi Hendrix Experience as the opening act. Their set consisted of most of what would be on their American debut. The performance was so powerful that when it came time for Havens, he slowly walked to the stage dragging his sitar behind him, turned to the audience and muttered “How do you follow something like that?”. The reason for this rare appearance of the Experience was speculated to have been a favor from Hendrix to the club owner for a fee of a few hundred dollars. There was also the connection between the Experience manager, former Animals bassist Chas Chandler. Cafe Wha? is located at 115 Macdougal Street, between Bleecker and West 3rd Streets, and is about two blocks from Washington Square Park.

Evrywhere I hear the sound of marching, charging feet, boy
'cause summers here and the time is right for fighting in the street, boy

But what can a poor boy do

Except to sing for a rock 'n roll band

'cause in sleepy London town

There's just no place for a street fighting man

Hey! think the time is right for a palace revolution

But where I live the game to play is compromise solution

Well, then what can a poor boy do

Except to sing for a rock 'n roll band

'cause in sleepy London town

There's no place for a street fighting man

Hey! said my name is called disturbance

I'll shout and scream,

I'll kill the King,

I'll rail at all his servants

Well, what can a poor boy do

Except to sing for a rock 'n roll band

'cause in sleepy London town

There's no place for a street fighting man

Au premier temps de la valse
Toute seule tu souris déjà
Au premier temps de la valse
Je suis seul mais je t'aperçois
Et Paris qui bat la mesure
Paris qui mesure notre émoi
Et Paris qui bat la mesure
Me murmure murmure tout bas
Une valse à trois temps
Qui s'offre encore le temps
Qui s'offre encore le temps
De s'offrir des détours
Du côté de l'amour
Comme c'est charmant
Une valse à quatre temps
C'est beaucoup moins dansant
C'est beaucoup moins dansant
Mais tout aussi charmant
Qu'une valse à trois temps
Une valse à quatre temps
Une valse à vingt ans
C'est beaucoup plus troublant
C'est beaucoup plus troublant
Mais beaucoup plus charmant
Qu'une valse à trois temps
Une valse à vingt ans
Une valse à cent temps
Une valse à cent ans
Une valse ça s'entend
A chaque carrefour
Dans Paris que l'amour
Rafraîchit au printemps
Une valse à mille temps
Une valse à mille temps
Une valse a mis le temps
De patienter vingt ans
Pour que tu aies vingt ans
Et pour que j'aie vingt ans
Une valse à mille temps
Une valse à mille temps
Une valse à mille temps
Offre seule aux amants
Trois cent trente-trois fois le temps
De bâtir un roman
Au deuxième temps de la valse
On est deux tu es dans mes bras
Au deuxième temps de la valse
Nous comptons tous les deux une deux trois
Et Paris qui bat la mesure
Paris qui mesure notre émoi
Et Paris qui bat la mesure
Nous fredonne fredonne déjà
Une valse à trois temps
Qui s'offre encore le temps
Qui s'offre encore le temps
De s'offrir des détours
Du côté de l'amour

Trois cent trente-trois fois le temps
De bâtir un roman
Au troisième temps de la valse
Nous valsons enfin tous les trois
Au troisième temps de la valse
Il y a toi y'a l'amour et y'a moi
Et Paris qui bat la mesure
Paris qui mesure notre émoi
Et Paris qui bat la mesure
Laisse enfin éclater sa joie.
Une valse à trois temps
Qui s'offre encore le temps

Her skin is white cloth,

and she's all sewn apart

and she has many colored pins
sticking out of her heart.
She has many different zombies

who are deeply in her trance.

She even has a zombie

who was originally from France.

But she knows she has a curse on her,

a curse she cannot win.

For if someone gets

too close to her,
the pins stick farther in.

Goa Gil é um dos responsáveis pelo nascimento do trance psicadélico nas praias de Goa em meados dos anos 80. Nos seus tempos de juventude integrou o movimento "hippy" Haight Hashbury e quando completou 18 anos deixou a cidade natal e partiu para a Índia, como membro do movimento que no final dos anos 60 levou milhares de hippies desencantados aos ambientes exóticos da antiga colónia portuguesa.
No Verão de 69, Nixon era Presidente e Reagan acabara de se assumir como Governador da Califórnia. A magia de S. Francisco tornara-se opressiva. Alguns decidiram fundar comunas no campo e outros acabaram por ficar nas cidades. A maior parte dos quais conformados acabariam depois por se tornarem 'yuppies'. Os restantes, onde ele (Gil) se inclui, partiram para a Índia numa viagem espiritual. O destino era Goa, e pelo meio Goa Gil ainda arranjou tempo para aprender Yoga com gurus nos Himalaias e alcançar o "karma" pela meditação. Chegado à Índia este antigo guitarrista e poeta amante da "Beat Generation" começou por exportar o rock - "existiam cinco bandas rock na India naquela altura e eu tocava em três delas" (Goa Gil) - para só depois descobrir na música electrónica o seu passaporte para os céus.
"No final dos anos 70, comecei a ouvir a primeira música de dança e encontrei aí a combinação perfeita entre ritmos tribais do passado e sons futuristas, sintetizados, quase alienígenas. A música tornou-se um ciclo completo, do tribalismo ao cibertribalismo o que traduz de forma perfeita os tempos de agora" (Gil).
Goa Gil é considerado o buda dos ambientes lisérgicos e das viagens pelos confins químicos da mente e do espírito, capaz de transformar as festas onde actua em verdadeiros rituais cerimoniais a que ninguém fica indiferente. O "slogan" mais conhecido, "Redifinindo o ritual tribal da dança para o século XXI" guia o público através do trance a um estado de consciência mais elevado. Ele tornou-se no maior protagonista da música eletrônica em Goa, mantendo esse título até hoje. Ele criou a conexão entre batidas eletrônicas, espiritualidade, yoga e música
"Quando actuo, toda a música e a comunhão que dela deriva deve elevar-se ao espírito cósmico A musa divina deve descer à festa e abençoar-nos a todos, Isto foi o que os antigos xamãs e os demais grupos tribais de todo o mundo fizeram em tempos remotos. Eu limito-me a actualizá-lo".(Gil)
No início, era bem difícil conseguir fazer estas raves - os DJ's tocavam utilizando fitas cassetes de walkman. Naquela época os CDs ainda não eram populares e o calor e a poeira de Goa não eram propícios para o vinil. A música desenvolveu-se para uma colorida mistura de Post-Wave, Electronic Body Music (EBM), New Beat, Front 242, Nitzer Ebb, variando entre música eletrónica belga, inglesa e americana.

[Trance's Festival Goa - India]

We are sitting by the holy fire in Anjuna beach, Goa. The good thing about when we did come here and it was untouched, was we created a lifestyle which was the best of the East and the West. We developed the concept of redefining the ancient tribal rituals for the 21st century and tried to use the party situation to uplift people consciousness through the trance-dance experience. It's nothing new, every tribal group since beginning of time has been practising this thing. You know, use music and dance to evoke the cosmic spirit, and everyone would be rejuvenated and healed by that, and the earth also. We developed a similar idea that would be acceptable to the youth of today.

“I admit that I ain't no angel, I admit that I ain't no saint. I'm selfish and I'm cruel and I'm blind. If I exorcise my devils, well my angels may leave too. When they leave they're so hard to find...”. “Don't you know there ain't no devil, it's just god when he's drunk”. “The piano has been drinking, not me”. "I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day”.

"That you to everyone at Island Records... to my Blake incarcerated. And for London, this is for London, cos Camden Town ain't burning down!". "I'll beat up Blake when I'm drunk. I don't think I have ever bruised him, but I do have my way. If he says one thing I don't like then I'll chin him". "I think I'd trust Amy Winehouse to guard my bag of coke before I'd trust Sabes to build my offense". "That's Amy Winehouse. She's the best singer at St. Bernadette's... with the worst reputation".

[Manchester: Hacienda]

And tonight something equally epoch-making is taking place. See? They're applauding the DJ. Not the music, not the musician, not the creator, but the medium. This is it. The birth of rave culture. The beatification of the beat. The dance age. This is the moment when even the white man starts dancing. Welcome to Manchester.

It was like being on a fantastic fairground ride, centrifugal forces throwing us wider and wider. But it's all right, because there's this brilliant machine at the center that's going to bring us back down to earth. That was Manchester. That is the Hacienda. Now imagine the machine breaks. For a while, it's even better, because you're really flying. but then, you fall, because nobody beats gravity.

I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel,

you were talking so brave and so sweet,

giving me head on the unmade bed,

while the limousines wait in the street.

Those were the reasons and that was New York,

we were running for the money and the flesh.

And that was called love for the workers in song

probably still is for those of them left.

Ah but you got away, didn't you babe,

you just turned your back on the crowd,

you got away, I never once heard you say,

I need you, I don't need you,

I need you, I don't need you

and all of that jiving around.

I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel

you were famous, your heart was a legend.

You told me again you preferred handsome men

but for me you would make an exception.

And clenching your fist for the ones like us

who are oppressed by the figures of beauty,

you fixed yourself, you said, "Well never mind,

we are ugly but we have the music.

"And then you got away, didn't you babe...

I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best,

I can't keep track of each fallen robin.

I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel,

that's all, I don't even think of you that often.
