(Oh yeah—lay it on me, baby… well, well, well, well….)
Death may be near but life is here.
Baby, do me right. Get wild tonight.
(Give it to me, baby.)
I’m down to skin and bone. C’mon take me home.
Don’t need no sugar, no spice. Don’t want you to be nice.
(Ooh yeah….)
Down in Detroit City all the doggies and the kitties
are makin’ love not war—that’s what black leather is for.
And every Detroit band got mojo hand.
She got the leather on tight. Good rockin’ tonight.
(Hey, hey….)

John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser.
Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this.
Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?).
With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP. yellowcakeuf6
