More on Nik Cohn
Description from Wikipedia:
Nik Cohn (also written Nick Cohn) is a British rock journalist, born in London in 1946.
He is considered a father of rock criticism, thanks to Awopbopaloobop Alopbamboom, written at the age of 22 in the late 60s. Cohn, the son of historian Norman Cohn, has since published articles, novels and music books regularly.
When reviewing a rough mix of The Who's rock opera Tommy, he told the group members that the album was less than spectacular. Knowing that Cohn was a fan of pinball, Pete Townshend suggested that the album's deaf, dumb, and blind title character could also be an exceptional pinball player. Cohn's opinion of the album immediately improved, and Townshend subsequently wrote "Pinball Wizard" to be added to the album.
During one stay in America in the late 80s, he shared a flat with wrestler Chris Candido. Certain aspects of Cohn's personality were taken on by Candido in his "No Gimmicks Required" personae in ECW.
He wrote the 1975 New York Magazine article "Tribal Rites of the New Saturday Night", which was the source material for the movie Saturday Night Fever. In the early 80s, he was indicted on drug trafficking charges for importing $4 million-worth of Indian heroin. In exchange for testimony he was given five years probation and was fined $5,000.
Cohn is now a columnist for The Guardian.
