Description
Paper Lace – So What If I Am/Himalayan Lullaby (Bus Stop, 1975) (BUS 1026) (Ex+) 7”-inch single in its original company sleeve. HEAR IT BELOW!
“So What If I Am” is quality Junkshop Glam meets Bovver Rock/Tuff Glam/Proto Punk from 1975. The singer even adopts a pre-Johnny Rotten snarl as he sings, "I am a question you don't understand. Ask and you answer with the back of your hand."
From the Purepop blog:
“I never thought that I would ever review a single by Paper Lace...but so what if I am? Looking like the outright winners from an all night Bavarian fisting competition, the normally clean and commercially viable Paper Lace tough it up on this non-hit outing from 1975. Rarely has a record sounded as much like its picture sleeve as this one. Obviously posed and contrived to gain entry with the Boot Boy crowd, So What If I Am is built upon a convincing stomp, with tough guy vocals and silly synth bleebs sprinkled on top. It all ends up sounding rather marvellous and if it were not Paper Lace, this would be high on many a wants list, where it firmly belongs...Now if only they were sporting steel capped DMs under their elephant flares...”
The single is in ‘Ex+’ condition and plays really well on both sides.
PLEASE LISTEN TO THE MP3S, WHICH ARE RECORDED FROM THE ACTUAL SINGLE.
