The "Racine 3" (a.k.a "I Am A Fucking Wonder") song...

Is a cover of a track from THIS album by Van Morrison & Them...

Released January 21st 1966...would you believe?

(40 years and a whole world ago....see them smokin'with 60's style abandon?...you wouldn't see THAT nowadays..)

January 21st 1966...

The very day W was born into this world of tears...

And set about creating some more tears..

and very much later released an album called...

"Now Ain't The Time For Your Tears"

Then formed Racine with her...

(wait for it...I don't just throw these things together you know..They are crafted)

Blood,Sweat and Tears...

(yep ANOTHER 1960/70's band...thanks for picking up on that)

That is Karma For Ya...



(it's called a "Tears" motif...see the clever "invisible" way I weaved it?)

"Don't Shoot...I Ain't Dillinger.."

(Click Both To Enlarge)

John Dillinger was a Gangster in Prohibition Times In The US....

A Very Popular Figure with the US Media and Working Classes...

(Paul Muni used him as the basis for "scarface" (1932)even though the movie was about Capone in reality..he also influenced Cagney in White Heat..and Bogart based his appearence in High Sierra on Dillinger's hair style..)

He was on the run from the F.B.I......

He went to see a movie...

The F.B.I were waiting for him outside...

He was shot many times...

Thus the famous saying in the US for years...

"Don't shoot..I ain't Dillinger"

The following comes from...

Counter Culture Portobello
Psychogeographical History
by Tom Vague.


In the late 80s all the requisite multicultural Grove style elements came together in Neneh Cherry’s ‘Buffalo Stance’ on Virgin. ‘What’s she like?’ As defined in Time Out: ‘She slips in and out of Portobello Road banter, New York street talk and fluent Swedish... She’s on nickname terms with the Face/Grove posse, and formulated the single from the Face ‘Buffalo’ fashion identity kit.’ The proto-‘Buffy’ pop appeal of Transvision Vamp was more problematic. Originally a DIY cyber-punk sci-fi soundtrack tape, by Wendy James and Nick Christian Sayer, hawked along Portobello in the mid 80s, this local pop revolution was televised. On the Wendy website she describes Ladbroke Grove as a ‘spiritual powerpoint’, with an ‘accommodating dole office’, and recalls initially recruiting the bassist and drummer, Dave Parsons and Tex Axile, to spray Transvision Vamp graffiti around the area.

Their ‘W11 Blues’ track tops the Portobello pop psychogeography chart, with Wendy ‘walking down the line, heading for the Grove’, echoing the Clash and Hawkwind in encounters with police and thieves, she ‘strode on down the line to Grove… left out of All Saints across Portobello Road, underneath the Westway and into Ladbroke Grove, up 2 flights of stairs into a darkened hall.’ Rounding off the night, after Neneh Cherry and Tone Loc shoutouts, her flat is raided by police. It can be argued that Transvision Vamp were the most successful local band, with top ten hits and million selling albums, but they fared less well than Sigue Sigue Sputnik/anyone in the press. At the end of the 80s, Wendy held court in the Warwick Castle with their second album ‘Velveteen’ at number 1 and Wendy herself the first Portobello pop pin-up since Marc Bolan. Yet Andy Gill’s Independent review wasn’t so much unfavourable as the final epitaph of Ladbroke Grove rock. In spite of being as successful, original, and local as any Portobello pop product, Gill concluded that ‘TV are little more than a series of references to pop culture icons sewn together with vaguely memorable stitches from rock’s rich tapestry.’ But, hey, who isn’t?

On the particularly derided Wendy solo album, ‘Now Ain’t The Time For Your Tears’ (the Vamp slayer Gill disagreed), the track ‘London’s Brilliant (in the rain)’ contains the Elvis Costello line, ‘still digging up the bones of Strummer and Jones.’ In the late 90s, as Costello covered Charles Aznavour’s ‘She’ in ‘Notting Hill’ the movie, the front door of Tex Axile’s former Westbourne Park Road abode, opposite the Warwick, took the starring role. Meanwhile, back in the States, the Transvision Vamp bassist Dave Parsons became bigger than Oasis as part of Bush (the Brit grunge group named after Shepherd’s Bush). Wendy was dubbed the ‘Imelda Marcos of Portobello Road’, in a Standard article on Mario’s cobblers on Talbot Road. This is the way the Sound of the Westway to the world story of Grove rock ends. Not with a bang, with Wendy...

"..Damn I'm Hot!...."

(Click To Enlarge And See The Hottness...)

It goes without saying that THIS is a reply to a fashionista friend...

Rather than a Racine fan "ordinary"....

Wendy doesn't "do" coffee with the Ordinaries...

Oh sure lots of them have asked (once upon a time)....

But Wendy has been SO busy darling.....

Every single time they've asked...

Meet the Ordinaries..?

"As If..."
Wendy "Hot" James

"More to the point.....How Embarrassing are some of those comments...?"

(Click To Enlarge)

Jay's mail is typical of many many others opinions on the recent

'Original Racine World GuestBook' blog at DryBaby 2.0....

His is typically the most articulate and succinct...

He describes what many people also feel...

Huge embarassment that they were so "welcoming and giving" to Wendy then...

When she turned out to be so "insular and mean spirited" now...

Turning Racine into a private "Club" for about 6/7 people....

and everyone else is left out in the cold until Wendy needs cash...

Then she obviously holds her nose against the stink of "Ordinary"....

and pretends she cares about the Plebs for a bit...

Barely holding her gagging reflex as she makes rare contact with those who..

She wouldn't shit on normally...

"what's a poor girl to do...?"

Not surprisingly the public have allowed Racine to slowly die...

Handing their money over to Miss Fashionista Party Girl...

To pay for Cocaine and designer frocks..

Is a definite NO-NO....

So with his kind permission I post it here for everyone to see...

Of course I have hidden Jay's mail address for his privacy...

She can put a bit of effort into a message...

After all...

If there's something (potentially) in it for her personally...

It's not as if she's talking to the Ordinaries...

and must keep her contact to a bare minimum...

In case she catches their Ordinariness...

In the past couple of days I got a mail from Venus telling me they had read my Blog...

About the "fake" Racine No 2 Reviews posted on their site..

Under the "fake" Italian name..

Following the naming of the actual person who wrote them in a recent blog too.

Venus say they have removed the review and from their site..

Thanking me for my Blog they said they would NOT be covering Racine again...

Nothing life threatening...

Just enough to put her typing fingers in a cast for a few weeks..

It won't affect her guitar playing...

She doesn't play guitar.

Dee Dee Ross does all that malarkey...

So she still be able to hold it in a cast...

and do her "Pete Townsend" at each gig...

This is how they CURRENTLY list Wendy James in the cold autumn (fall) of 2007...

I know The Drones are total non-entities...

So shouldn't even dream of a mention on your ticket booking site...

(They're lucky to still be alive frankly...)

But the band IS called Racine...

She is VERY ex-Transvision Vamp....

I know...

I read it on a flyer once..

Or do you not give a shit..?

Either Homer's lesser known brother...

(no NOT Danny De Vito..yeah we all saw that episode..!)

or

Pete Basset has no imagination at all..

(yep that's more likely..)

and then someone "recognised" their work....

Which Wendy had....

Borrowed Permanently...

"been inspired by"

So to avoid a law suit...

"a new direction"

Racine changed their "style"..

Note to self:

Do not submit "Wendy Crotch" photo to any website where someone might recognise it...!

a la..

"Hey..I remember going down on THAT crotch last year...It's Wendy James' pussy..."

So must NOT submit it to any website where there are men...

or women...

in fact anyone who went down on her in the past year...

So if you've "gone down on her"....

or perhaps...

"eaten her out"....

recently...
