Why the name Ranch Chimp? it was in humour because, science says that humans have similar DNA to a chimpanzee,so I felt some way related biologically to a chimpanzee. 2nd, everytime I was out of Texas on a vacation or for whatever reason I’m always asked things like, do I live on a ranch?,or have cattle? so I commonly call Dallas the Ranch. "Politically Depressed" was also humour inspired by the 1993- 2002 Bill Maher TV/ tele show "Politically Incorrect".

ADAM AND THE ANTS: .... "Stand & Deliver", "Plastic Surgery", "Goody Two Shoes" ....
***** ADAM- ANT.NET
A performing artist who certainly need's to be paid homage in this journal's music selection, would be Mr.Stuart Goddard .... also known in the entertainment industry as Adam Ant. A multi talented gent out of London's Marylebone District who is a songwriter/ vocalist/ actor of the new wave/ post punk category. He also is a bass guitarist and great dancer .... although not known for it, I may add. His mother was a domestic/ house cleaner for Paul McCartney for a short time even, although it had nothing to do with Mr.Stuart's career or art in any way. He started the group "Adam and The Ant's" after attending a "Siouxsie and the Banshees" concert in 1977 actually.
But .... having attended two show's of this great live performance group and having several piece's of their music for year's, and Mr.Stuart being at the top of my list as an artist .... it's time to post a few piece's by them. Thank You Sir for your art. This first piece below was released in 1981, called "Stand and Deliver" .... Enjoy!
Adam & the Ants- Stand and Deliver (Live 1980) ... Thanx to StewThePowerCarr
This next piece was released in 1977 as well as this video, and called "Plastic Surgery" ... Thanx to ULTRA7ULTRA7ULTRA7
Adam Ant- Goody Two Shoes ... Thanx to ADAMANTVEVO

ReplyDeleteI like Music time...
I'll certainly by posting a large array of it! :)
ReplyDeleteThanx for stopping by ...............
I remember him. Mostly because my younger brother was interested in that style of music. Does he still perform?
ReplyDeleteThanx for the question Ms.Rita .... It made me look up info on it, since I hadnt heard a thing on him since the early 2000's. But "yes" ...it appear's that he is touring as we speak, and the first since 2007! He should be about 55 or 56 now .... I knew he was about 2 year's older than me.
ReplyDeleteLater Girl ..........

I've seen Siouxsie and the Banshees and that was alot of fun. I liked Adam and the Ants but never saw them. In '81 I was busy with Black Flag and the Dead Kennedy's and oh so many more. I'd never seen anything as far back as '77- that was interesting. Thank you, sir.
OMG Ms.Winsome Dove .... "Black Flag" and the "Dead Kennedy's"! Those are refreshing name's to hear these day's ..... ohhh the memories girl! Some fine choice's indeed! :)
ReplyDeleteThanx for your input here ......
