Night of the living Booheads
One of the starriest names guesting on B oomerang is Public Enemy’s Chuck D. Betty Boo’s relationship with Chuck and the New York hip-hop outfit goes back 35 years when, after a PE gig in Hammersmith, the 17-year-old Alison Clarkson bumped into the band in a nearby McDonalds. In a priceless bit of video footage (Public Enemy were filming a documentary at the time and so had cameras with them) Clarkson and her pals, The She-Rockers, freestyled a rap (check it out on YouTube), only for everyone to get thrown out of the eatery soon after.
