WATCH Ghoulardi (Ernie Anderson) Shows Off Baby (Paul Thomas Anderson) How He Invented Cleveland Punk, The Cramps, et. al. “Stay sick, knif”<br /><br />https://visualguidanceltd.blogspot.com/2018/11/watch-ghoulardi-ernie-anderson-shows.html<br />https://twitter.com/mrjyn/status/1059317201256280064<br /><br /><br />The Cramps named their 1990 album Stay Sick! <br /><br /><br /> David Thomas, of art rock band Pere Ubu, said that the Cramps were "so thoroughly co-optive of the Ghoulardi persona that when they first appeared, Clevelanders of the generation were fairly dismissive." <br /><br /><br /> Thomas credits Ghoulardi for influencing the "otherness" of the Cleveland/Akron bands of the mid-1970s and early-1980s, including the Electric Eels, and The Mirrors, the Cramps, and Thomas's own groups, Pere Ubu and Rocket From The Tombs, declaring:<br /><br /><br /> "We were the Ghoulardi kids." (Akron's Devo aren't included on Thomas' list, but they were formed in the same era as the other groups and shared a similar esthetic.)<br /><br /> In 2002, Cleveland-area indie band Uptown Sinclair featured a Ghoulardi-derived basketball referee in the slapstick music video for their song "Girlfriend."<br /><br /> The most obvious Ghoulardi kid, Anderson's son, film director Paul Thomas Anderson, named his production entity "The Ghoulardi Film Company."<br /><br />Before he was an announcer for ABC in the 1970's and 80's, Ernie Anderson was best known for the "love" in "The Love Boat," or as the host of a big television hit in Cleveland. <br /><br />900 views • Upload date: 09/17/2007<br /><br />Share link: https://dai.ly/x2zwlw<br /><br /><br /><br />http://mrjyn.blogspot.com/2007/09/ernie-anderson-ghoulardi-father-of-paul.html
