Imagination on the radio

February 12th, 2009

I’ve had this stack of 200 records I’ve collected over the last year sitting next to my desk for the last three months, and today I pulled out a beauty. Imagination’s 1983 album Scandalous.

Scandalous!!!

The track New Dimension is a bit of a revelation. And then there’s the film clip!:

Soooo…you know TV On The Radio were once a three-piece right?

TV On The Radio as a three piece- is it my imagination?

And then there’s the Golden Age film clip:

Is it just me, or were Imagination reborn in 2001 in New (Dimension) York City, as an experimental rock/pop/doowop/freejazz band with one member sporting more of a ‘fro than in the ’80s, one with a squarer jaw and the other with a skin pigmentation lightening problem and a new pair of glasses?

Surely this proves it?:
Imagination On The Radio

If not, then certainly I must be considered as the token white guy in the inevitable 2009 reformation of Imagination?

Out of the woodwork....

...and into the Goyterrrrrrr

    Would I be right in suggesting (ever so gently) that you’ve been trawling the internets instead of writing new material?
    Bad Wally!

    Those clips are some of the trippiest I’ve ever seen.

    PS I love your space jarmies.

    The only drawback of joining Imagination is you’ll have to stop waxing your bikini line like Dude in Yellow.
