About Me
Rich Deakin - Born in Leicester, 1965. After leaving school became a full-time wastrel and occasional disc jockey. By the mid-90s seriously needed to get shit together and completed a Masters thesis on the British underground press. Live in Cheltenham with girlfriend and two Persian cats, Maumau and Owsley. Keep It Together! : Cosmic Boogie with the Deviants and Pink Fairies - the biography of legendary 1960s and 70s British underground bands - The Deviants and Pink Fairies. THE LADBROKE GROOVE (edit) by Mick Farren and Andy Colquhoun Abridged version of Mick Farren's introduction to Keep It Together! put to music, and recorded at Andy Colquhoun's Cyber Music Studios, Los Angeles, March 2007. KEEP IT TOGETHER!This is the remarkable story of London's anti social communal bands of the 1960s and 1970s, from the perspective of two of its most crucial exponents. Fuelled by amphetamine psychosis and the music of Bob Dylan and the Fugs, The Deviants and Pink Fairies were bands of the people playing for free from flatbed trucks, and alternatively on bills alongside the likes of Led Zeppelin. Keep it Together! tells of the musical and social movements key in shaping a London that had been swinging but was rapidly moving away from psychedelia into far more brutish territory. It is a tale that includes the Edgar Broughton Band, the Pretty Things, Tomorrow, Hawkwind, and a host of other influential bands and dodgy geezers, with many exclusive interviews and photographs.
