Comment:

'The police have framed me yet again. They frighten me so much. I can't face the thought of prison.' (Mary Millington's Suicide Note.) Mary Millington appeared in Pornographic Magazines like Playbirds and Whitehouse; she also starred as a saucy nurse in David Sullivan's 1977 movie Come Play with Me which really made Mary a huge star. Within the space of just two years Mary became the most profitable name at the British box office with a string of record-breaking X-rated sex movies like The Playbirds (1978) and Queen of the Blues (1979). But with fame also came unhappiness. Police continually raided her sex shop and Mary repeatedly complained of police threats and harassment. After the death of her mother, Mary sank into depression, which manifested itself in kleptomania and drug abuse. On the morning of 19th August her husband found her dead in her bed. The cause of death was a cocktail of paracetamol and alcohol. She was just 33 years old. Her last appearance was a cameo in Julian Temple's The Great Rock'n'Roll Swindle.

And the Master asked Dom: "What is the word?"
And Dom replied: "The word, is 'Legs'".

And the Master said: "Go forth then, Dom...and spread the word!"
Another scandalously good mix!

Yes, Mary's story is a tragic but so true one. The morality police, consisting of a bunch of old people who look as though they've never had an orgasm between them, EVER, telling people what they can and can't do in the privacy of their own homes. Great mix, by the way, as usual.

That Gainsbourg/Birkin to Bowie run is just stunning. Nice call on the Normal cut for the theme. And I NEVER get tired of "Nobody Does It Better".
