So this afternoon I have found out that Bobby Gillespie used to be Altered Images' roadie and that Clare Grogan used to call him "Bobo"
― Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 26 June 2012 14:33 (eleven years ago) link
Yes, but until that realisation, he is a spaced out dude, everything is art and nothing's going to touch his world. Your broken leg is beautiful to him. A wound on someone's head is a trancendant statement on the link between the life force in us all, and the galaxy in supernova. -- mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 21 September 2006 07:59 (7 months ago) I don't remember writing that at all.

.. which is odd, because today I *do* remember writing that.

Wow, Clare G appears in two unrelated threads today. Nice work.

Bobby Gillespie is always cooler than you. That's a maxim worth remembering, even as you mock him. For instance, you might be in the Sumatran jungle, taking DNA samples from an endangered tapir in order to save it from extinction. But Bobby Gillespie is cooler than you because he's found a way to mimic the way Johnny Thunders did his hair in 1976. Or you might be working in a mobile soup kitchen off the Commercial Road, making a real difference to the lives of the homeless. But Bobby Gillespie is cooler than you because he named his children Wolf and Lux. You might be in Islington risking assault by saving two kids (it turns out their names are Wolf and Lux) from being beaten up by bullies, but Bobby Gillespie is cooler than you because he once modeled for The Gap. You might shudder when you read about Mexican drug barons getting their henchmen to sew human faces on footballs, but Bobby Gillespie is cooler than you because he once read a book by Gilles de Rais, once saw a film by Dario Argento, and thinks faces on footballs are "beautiful".
In fact he's probably going to write a high-energy rock song about it, when he can muster any energy at all.

"You know, everybody was waiting for Rotten's new record after leaving the Pistols. What was it going to be like? And when he came back with the single, Public Image Ltd., it was just like.... Levene's smacked-out, burnt arpeggio guitar.... But more than that, right, it was rock music, but it wasn't rock music like the Pistols or the Clash. It wasn't traditional and that. It was like, it was like a departure. It was, like, a way into the future." --From BBCFour's "Punk Britannia"
"Smacked-out, burnt arpeggio guitar" has to be an all-time Gillespie-ism.

"You know, everybody was waiting for Gillespie's new record after giving up his role as Bobo the Roadie in Altered Images. What was it going to be like? And when he came back with Primal Scream., it was just like.... Big Jim Navajo's smacked-bottom, burnt tattie scone guitar.... But more than that, right, it was shite music, but it wasn't shite music like the Pastels or the BMX Bandits. It was traditional and that. It was like, it was like no departure. It was, like, a way into somebody else's past."-- From Grampian TV's "Twee Caledonia"

Best part is definitely the Kevin Shields bits, and it's not enough.

Plenty more where that came from I reckon- I'm looking forward to the rest of 2013 being filled with glorious Bobby BS.

I love Bobby Gillespie. He's a bit of a head-the-ball but he's a very intelligent man, and always has something interesting to say.
