Biography

Louie Lepore:

Cherry and myself, quickly became close and were in the same band. (This was all happening in New York City at the time). That band included:

  • Zecca on piano
  • Michael “Manny” Mancuso on drums
  • Jay Nap on bass

We started gigging, and at one of the gigs Miles Copeland and Mick Rock were there. Mick had been a friend of Cherry since Bowie, and invited Miles to the gig.

I remember well after the gig, Miles said to myself and Cherry, “Come to London and I’ll get you a drummer and a bass player and put you on tour”. I believe we must have told him that night that we couldn’t afford it, or more to the point that Jay fell off the stage for some reason, and maybe they thought that was a hip thing to do! Come to London and fall off the stage- you’ll be famous!

Around that same time, the band had recorded some demos of Cherrys’ songs."
