Exotic Adrian Street & The Pile Drivers - Breakin' Bones (1977)
The Great American Holiday is here and although it's really tempting to post The Super Bowl Shuffle or one of its crappy knockoffs, we're instead going to Wales for international wrestling star, the one and only Exotic Adrian Street with his flamboyant brand of sadism.
Breakin' Bones was originally released as a single back in the heyday of glam punk in '77. It was re-released on the album Shake, Wrestle 'N' Roll in 1986 with The Pile Drivers and its worth checking out for other gems like "A Sweet Transvestite With A Broken Nose", "Sadist In Sequins", and the classic "Mighty Big Girl".
Now it's time to gluttonously enjoy our pizza and beer and chips and artichoke dip and tacos and wings and pretzels and tequila and edibles and antacids, and toss the rock around with friends and family and strangers, and hope that silly prop bet about the duration of the National Anthem or what color the Gatorade is pays off. [Careful, the fix is in.]
"No one seems to understand how sensitive I am
When I twist somebody's head round several ways
and dislocating fingers or a casual body slam
Helps me pass the time and brightens up my day"
We gotta get our aggression out somehow. The campiness of 80s wrestling "pop" music is unmatched.
ReplyDeleteOh, and good move to zig when the country is zagging. Everyone knows the Super Bowl Shuffle, but this is far more deserving of some shine. :)
