A Lennon Terrier, a Sex Pistol Terrier

It is said that the second season of the vinyl era was cut by HBO. I don't know if it is true or not, which is a pity.
I also hope that this show can be like Mad Men, and do a small ten-year span.
After all, there are Lou Reed, Ramones, New York Dolls, Andy Warhol, John Lennon and others I imagined, and the rock era that I never lived through.

In one episode, Devon, the man's wife, went to a bar and met Lennon with a girl. She asked the photographer to borrow a Hasselblad camera and took pictures of them. When I saw this girl, the first reaction was definitely Yoko Ono, but at first glance, it didn't look like it at all, especially like a Chinese girl. Only later did I realize that this person should not be Yoko Ono, but Pang Fengyi, Lennon's lover. (Of course, it is also possible to find an actor who is not like Yoko, but I think it is actually Pang Fengyi.)

In 1973, the marriage between Lennon and Ono Yoko was in crisis. Lennon and Pang Fengyi, who was originally from Shandong, China (if I remember correctly), were in crisis. Cohabitation until 1975. Pang Fengyi was Lennon and Yoko's personal assistant before, and later fell in love with Lennon. Yoko Ono knew about this, and told Pang Fengyi, "Lennon will start dating other women, I hope she is a good woman to him; he once said that you are very sexy, and you don't have a boyfriend, it is better to date him Let's be together."

At the same time, the bar where Richie finally talked to the detective said that it would be changed into a bar for performances, mainly blues, bluegrass or something, that is CBGB, which was founded in December 1973.


In addition, when Nasty Bits warmed up the New York girl, it should be in 1973, they just released the album of the same name. And in the audience we can see Joey Ramone, in fact, they also formed in 1974 after watching the scene of New York Girl. And performed for the first time at CBGB in August 1974 (coinciding with the bar above).

In addition, the A&R girl in the film, Jamie, but in terms of styling, I guess the prototype may be Nancy, the girlfriend of the Sex Pistol bassist sid. So if there is a second season, there should be CBGB and Ramones, and Kip, the lead singer of Nasty Bits, will die of a drug overdose with Jamie sooner or later.

One more thing that may be inaccurate, the Beatles drug use is said to have been taught by Bob Dylan, and the Sex Pistols' Sid drug use was taught by New York girl guitarist Johnny Thunders. When Johnny Thunders went to England, he saw Sid playing with leaves and stuff, and told him that needles are what men do. . .

No, I like it.
