Radio Gonzo

Like all rock and roll scribes of my generation I strive to avoid doing what Jon Landau did 40 years ago when he said "I have seen the future of Rock and Roll and it is Bruce Springsteen" and got laughed at for it for the rest of his career. So I won't. I have seen ShiSho and they are certainly the future of something, but I don't think they have decided what yet. Within half an hour of discovering them I sent the link to their music to my niece Harriet, and within a few minutes I received a reply "I relate to this music really well, wow!" and ShiSho got themselves another fan. This confirmed my suspicions. I wrote to ShiSho guardedly. |The 21st Century is not a very nice place, and I am only too aware that middle aged men with wild staring eyes contact teenage girls at their peril. I am certainly a middle aged man with wild staring eyes and I would hate anyone to think that my motives were even slightly insalubrious]. The girls wrote back, sending me some press stuff, and we chatted a bit via Facebook bef
