Cherry Vanilla... with scoops for you
The three essays below constitute the second installment in a continuing CREEM series designed to bring Cherry Vanilla to the world, for which we may or may not be forgiven. For Cherry -poet, author (the soon-to-be published The First Few Days of A Decade — As Seen Through the Eyes of A Tart) musician, narco conjuress, star of stage and screen, world traveller and confidante of the rich, the famous, the beautiful - has been there wherever, whenever the strange changes were going down in the Sixties. Now she is ready to turn and face those of the Seventies, rather than pack all in and hibernate as so many weaker souls have done, and she is also prepared to draw on her wealth of experience to help guide the children of the new age through the gauntlets that await them. You may not know Cherry yet, but rest assured that she knows you; she has been where you and I are, still lives there (at least in the winter months) and her greatest joy is the symbiotic interaction of electric communication at the highest, most basic level. So slide in, pick it up, feed back and Cherry will return the motion and make it all clear. Think of what you are about to read not as “poetry” or “journalism” but as crytstallizations of time and tide, Truth caught and fixed. And remember: her lines are always open. — Ed.
