photo of the FAST circa '74
the FAST were a n.y. glam punk band who began in '74, and by '76 began releasing Superfast singles, see our reviews on pages 6 and 7, they were friends of the RAMONES, and BLONDIE, says that KISS took their cues from them in the early days, note the eye makeup, these 2 photos we feature of them here, are much different than what came to be their 'look'....
another photo of the FAST , mid 70s.........
If our greatest need had been money, God would have sent us an economist. If our greatest need had been pleasure, God would have sent us an entertainer. But our greatest need was forgiveness. so God sent us a Savior! —— Charles R. Swindoll
MINK de VILLE
MINK de VILLE was and still is a GREAT singer from the 70s, allthough from the same club scene as the FAST, his sound was much different, his 1st lp has a sound somewhere between LOU REED and the STONES, with some white soul thrown in, he would continue to make some cool blues based music into the future, see page 6 for reviews....
excert from the ZENDAVESTA ( ZOROASTRIANISM ), from the WORLD BIBLE
‘The first step that the soul of the faithful man made, placed him in the Good-Thought Paradise;
‘The second step that the soul of the faithful man made, placed him in the Good-Word Paradise;
‘The third step that the soul of the faithful man made, placed him in the Good-Deed Paradise;
‘The fourth step that the soul of the faithful man made, placed him in the Endless Lights.’
Then one of the faithful, who had departed before him, asked him, saying: ‘How didst thou depart this life, thou holy man? How didst thou come, thou holy man! from the abodes full of cattle and full of the wishes and enjoyments of love? From the material world into the world of the spirit? From the decaying world into the undecaying one? How long did thy felicity last?’
And Ahura Mazda answered: ‘Ask him not what thou askest him, who has just gone the dreary way, full of fear and distress, where the body and the soul part from one another. 18. ‘[Let him eat] of the food brought to him, of the oil of Zaremaya: this is the food for the youth of good thoughts, of good words, of good deeds, of good religion, after he has departed this life; this is the food for the holy woman, rich in good thoughts, good words, and good deeds, well-principled and obedient to her husband, after she has departed this life.
