Tony Cluedo. Patch Lafeyette. Les McQueen. Bob Chagnall. Individually, their names don’t add up to much. Collectively, their ensemble, 1981 Eurovision entrants CRÈME BRÛLÉE are either one of the most important bands of the post-psych era… or one of the most important bands of the pre-psych revival era. I sometimes cannot recall which, which makes the Levitation Festival’s efforts to BAN Crème Brûlée especially galling. Sure, maybe the band (Cluedo specifically) pocketed Levitation’s deposit after claiming they couldn’t obtain work visas, but why hold a grudge? There’s an old cliche in sports that I think applies to music ; you can’t field an entire team of choirboys. I mean, I suppose you could do that with a band but no one wants to hear an A capella version of Crème Brûlée, not even persons who’d pay to see Anton Newcombe.
