Some great stories from Mark Mothersbaugh in this DEVO interview. Can’t wait to see part two.
This flow chart is long overdue. Thanks Internet!
circumstances where whipping it should be considered
We all remember Toni Basil from her 1982 cheerleading anthem, “Mickey.” But did you that Toni also covered a few Devo songs on the same album with “Mickey” on it?
Here she is covering Devo’s “Pity You” from the New Traditionalists album. Her version is called, “You Got A Problem.”
Here Toni Basil covers the classic, “Be Stiff!”
Basil was going out with Jerry Casale at the time and Devo actually served as the backing band on these tracks.
As for “Mickey,” credit for that song goes to Mike Chapman and Nicky Chinn. Don’t worry, those dudes have their own blog post coming soon!
Michael Pilmer who works with DEVO on teh interwebz, on tour and maintains the archives over at Devo Obsesso presents some AWESOME live footage from their Hollywood Park show the other night.
Michael is also responsible for THIS.
PART II of “Devo Makes Something For Everybody” released today. I know @ifcdotcom have been talking to @DEVO about a TV show. DO IT OR BE DOOMED.
