cherie currie from the runaways





I remember when l was a young whipper-snapper (those were the days my friend) and went hitch-hiking around Scotland with a friend called Gary Waitland , heading to Loch Ness to look for the monster (no joy). On the way back, we stopped off in Edinburgh, where l bought some records, including The Runaways album, which had just come out. It was not very good, and l ended up selling it to my brother, but since l have now got his old records, it has returned to me.
The reason l am waffling away about this is because of what Cherie Currie (the singer) is doing now. She has re-imagined herself as a chainsaw artist, and apparently is having success with the outrageous change of direction. Now that is something l would never have imagined her (or most people) doing. They even look pretty good - respect.
