UK promo vinyl album punk era poet
John Cooper Clarke an English performance poet who first became famous during the punk rock era of the late 1970s when he became known as a "punk poet". He released several albums in the late 1970s and early 1980s, and continues to perform regularly.
His recorded output has mainly centred on musical backing from the Invisible Girls, which featured Martin Hannett, Steve Hopkins, Pete Shelley, Bill Nelson, and Paul Burgess.
In 1979 he had his only UK top 40 hit with "Gimmix! (Play Loud)".] Clarke toured with Linton Kwesi Johnson, and has performed on the same bill as bands such as the Sex Pistols, the Fall, Joy Division, the Buzzcocks, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Elvis Costello, Rockpile and New Order (including at their May 1984 Music for Miners benefit concert at London's Royal Festival Hall). His set is characterised by lively, rapid-fire renditions of his poems, usually performeda cappella. Often referred to as "the bard of Salford",[6] he usually refers to himself on stage as "Johnny Clarke, the name behind the hairstyle".
In 1979 he applied to join actors' union Equity, but as there was already a member named John Cooper Clarke, he joined under the name Lenny Siberia. His 1980 album Snap, Crackle & Bop gave him his highest album chart placing, reaching number 26.
In July 2013, Clarke was awarded an honorary doctorate of arts in "acknowledgement of a career which has spanned five decades, bringing poetry to non-traditional audiences and influencing musicians and comedians" by the University of Salford. Upon receipt, Clarke commented: "Now I'm a doctor, finally my dream of opening a cosmetic surgery business can become a reality."[16]
Clarke's poem "I Wanna Be Yours" was adapted by Arctic Monkeys and frontman Alex Turner for the band's fifth album, AM, released on 9 September 2013.[17] Speaking about the poem to the NME's Matt Wilkinson, Clarke said:
I wrote it along with a load of others at the time, I tend to write like that. I remember when it was – about '83 or '84 or something like that. It's come to my attention that it's the wedding favourite. The number of people that have said, "I had that read at my wedding", or "My husband proposed to me using that number"… It's been very useful in the world of modern romance! It is to modern wedding ceremonies what "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" by Eric Idle is to humanist funerals. I probably go to a great many more funerals than you do, so take it from me.[18]
In 2013, Clarke voiced a poem about how eating chips makes people happy for a television commercial advertising McCain oven chips. It included the tag line "happy days".
In May 2013 and May 2014, Clarke appeared as a guest on BBC One's Have I Got News for You.
In 2014, Clarke recorded a duet with the Manchester band, Inspiral Carpets, on their song "Let You Down". The track is on the band's album Inspiral Carpets released on 20 October 2014.
In October 2014, Clarke appeared as a guest on BBC Two's Never Mind the Buzzcocks. In November 2014 he appeared as a competitor on BBC One's Pointless Celebrities, where he was paired with journalist Rod Liddle. The pair won the contest, answering questions on David Bowie album tracks, each providing a pointless answer; Clarke donated his prize winnings to local back-to-work charity Signpost.
In February 2015 he took over the Sunday afternoon slot, for three shows, on BBC Radio 6 Music.[22] In August he was a guest on Craig Charles's Saturday morning radio show on BBC Radio 2 and gave the world premier of a new poem "Trouble at Mall", and in the same month he was a panellist on BBC One's Would I Lie to You?
