Malcolm McLaren died. Musician, band manager,producer, entrepreneur,
songwriter--he wore all those titles.
But then, nobody puts 'visionary' on their resume.
He managed (and named) the Sex Pistols. I love the defiant,
in-your-face graphics of
Jamie Reid's posters for their albums.
The Madame Butterfly video was mesmerizing when I first saw it, and
it continues to have a strange, dreamy pull.
Puccini would turn over in his grave, no doubt.
Maybe that was the point.
