ROCK 'N' ROLL NEWS
Alexandro Jodorowsky, who wrote, starred in, directed and scored El Topo has moved his mystic mind into New Areas. Invited last month to lecture to the graduating architects at Guadalajara University in Mexico, Alexandro, who knows nothing tangible about architecture, showed up on stage leading a cow, which he promptly introduced by saying “This cow knows more about architecture than your professors.” Needless to say, this benediction caused the assembly to break out in stitches, whereupon Alexandro pointed out, “The cow you see, is not laughing.”
El Topo went on improvising for more than 4 hours, reminiscent of the time he showed up at midnight to see his film at New York’s Elgin Cinema, and took the stage for two hours after the screeningj ranting and rapping in metaphysically-broken English to a packed house.
Satisfied when he returned home after the architecture lecture, he prepared a week later to accept an invitation that had just zapped in from a medical school.
