A man from the 1930s, he saw a lot of life.
Wow, poor guy got a flat-rate 30 Pounds for his contribution to Lou Reed’s 1972 hit “Walk on the Wild Side.”
Last week I learned that “Little Joe”, who “never once gave it away”, aka Joe D’Allasandro, was the model for the crotch shot on the Stones’ “Sticky Fingers.” The Stones had commissioned Andy Warhol to do the cover, admonishing him to “keep it simple”, and he goes and puts a zipper on the cover, which was hugely expensive.
Always admired the bassline in “Jump Into the Fire” keeps going lower and lower then it sounds like he’s loosening the string and going lower and lower.
stellar player
I thought he was singing about transsexuals.
Walkin on the wild side now.
