I wrote about J.G. “Foetus” Thirlwell in much greater detail here, so won’t bother re-hashing all of that. But today happens to be the great man’s birthday, so I thought I’d dust off a favorite clip.
Here’s J.G. in the guise of Foetus Inc., featuring an all-star touring line-up of noisy New Yorkers like Algis Kizys on bass (SWANS), Norman Westerburg on guitar (SWANS), Dave Ouimet on samplers (Cop Shoot Cop/Motherhead Bug/Firewater), Hahn Rowe on guitar (Hugo Largo/Firewater) and Vinny Signorelli on drums (Unsane/SWANS). Truly, an ensemble to be reckoned with, here captured performing “Free James Brown (So He Can Run Me Down)” for an unsuspecting crowd in Atlanta, GA in 1990.
Happy birthday.
