Produktinformationen zu „Nico (ePub)“
Nico's keyboardist recounts her ill-advised eighties tour in this "funny memoir . . . A well-written black comedy" of life on the fringes of rock & roll (The New York Times).
This is the story of the last "scene" of the art rock diva Nico, whose fifteen minutes of fame included her tenure with Andy Warhol's Factory, the films Chelsea Girls and La Dolce Vita, and a momentous stint with The Velvet Underground, singing on their debut album, The Velvet Underground & Nico.
In 1982, Nico was living in Manchester, England, far from her "fifteen minutes" and interested only in feeding her heroin habit. Local promoter Dr. Demetrius saw an opportunity, hired musicians to back her, and set off on a disastrous tour of Italy. In a daze of chaotic live shows and countless heroin scores, Nico toured the world with assorted thrown-together bands, encountering a wild crew of personalities, including John Cale, Allen Ginsberg, John Cooper Clarke, and Gregory Corso.
This story of Nico and the characters who orbited around her is "a funny and engaging chronicle that puts you right on the tour bus, amid the clutter of drums and drugs and unwashed bodies" (Kirkus Reviews).
