Edited 4 days ago"This is a request piece, because after I mentioned Flash Fearless in my previous post, a few pulp/planetary romance loving friends wanted to know more.
So, for all of you out there that were curious, here goes.
The Rocky Horror Show debuted in the West End in 1973, doing a rock’n’roll parody of horror.
And somewhere somebody started thinking – could the same be done with other popular genres? With, say, comic-book science fiction?
And so, between October and December 1974, a rather eccentric group of musicians was assembled in Chrysalis Studios, to record a rock’n’roll spoof of the classic serials of the ’30s and ’40s, penned by Steve Hammond and David Pierce with a little more than a wink and a nod to Buster Crabbe’s Flash Gordon.
The project was called Flash Fearless vs the Zorg Women, parts 5 & 6.
The record that answers the question… can I get Alice Cooper on vocals with John Entwistle on bass and Bill Bruford on drums, produced by Bob Ezrin?
Of course you can.
The plot (if that’s not too strong a word) – having escaped the evil snake men, Flash Fearless, a star-spangled hero of the skyways and his companions (including Dulla, his girlfriend) have a brush with the space pirates, and finally crash on the planet of the Zorg Women, a sort of aggressive, sexy matriarchy that’s removed men from the picture after securing a few specimens to milk for genetic material. Flash, being a fine specimen himself, obviously attracts the attention of the King of the Zorg Women. Many shenanigans ensue.
OK, subtle is not.
The story is presented as two episodes of a lost serial, together with a comic book version of the story in the liner notes ... ", karavansara.live
Up to me, the music is great and FRANKIE MILLER recorded here an insane KILLER track.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !
