The Crazy World of Arthur Brown
Jacoba Atlas, Hullabaloo, December 1968
ARTHUR BROWN is after your soul. As he is lowered on stage by a thin wire that tempts fate, his full-length robe whips about him like a shroud. His face is covered with a black mask, and a blazing crown of candles throws weird and ominous figures across the stage. Dancing and twisting in sweat-producing contortions, he screams: "I've put a spell on you!"
