James Chance by Jimmy Desana

This is extremely exciting. Very rarely seen footage from the 1978 benefit concert for X Magazine has surfaced featuring The Contortions, Boris Policeband, and DNA. Astounding! Thanks to Frieda's Whip for the tip. The film/video was made by Coleen Fitzgibbon and Alan Moore, and finished in 2009.

The film is part of an exhibition called Party Picks at the Bowery branch of the Salon 94 Gallery, and features the work of artist & photographer, Jimmy Desana. It runs June 21, 2013–August 09, 2013. For more information click here.

James-fan, Jeff Ellis, very kindly has shared these previously unpublished images of James White & The Blacks that he snapped way back in May 1982 when he saw the band perform in Vancouver at the Luv-A-Fair nightclub. A big thank you to Jeff!
