You had to be there!
This trio of three included:
The
President – Professor Crivici (Romano Crivici – Linsey’s
oldest friend…I don’t mean old….just from long ago….when they were
just kids….almost) – keys and violin.
Frank
Brutal – leader of the political arm of the Society (Blair
Greenberg) – percussion and guitar.
The
Secretary – Denis Bland (Linsey) – winds (of many
persuasions)
The Paranormals (as they were fondly called) had a cult following
in Sydney and were known for channeling the works of dead composers
(especially Hidegarde Spumoni – a lesser known Baroque composer) and
playing music whose notes were determined by rolls of a giant dice.
They improvised requests called out by the audience. Things like:
“the pinnacle guinea pig races”, “haddock”, “Bob Marley goes to
Turkey”, “Rawhide” and so on.
They recorded two albums (but only
released one – “Moving On”)
They were a legend in their own
time. |
