Patti Palladin

Patti Palladin is primarily known for her work with Snatch (with Judy Nylon) in the early 1970s, Johnny Thunders, and The Flying Lizards. Palladin co-wrote the track "Trial by Fire" that appeared on the 1982 Judy Nylon album 'Pal Judy' (with her backing band Crucial). Snatch was included in the influential Nurse With Wound list released as part of the artwork for the 1979 'Chance Meeting on a Dissecting Table of a Sewing Machine and an Umbrella'. Snatch recorded the song "R.A.F." with Brian Eno, which was released on the 1982 EG Records compilation album 'First Edition' and included audio samples from a Red Army Faction ransom message. 

 

Palladin also worked extensively with Johnny Thunders of The Heartbreakers, the former lead guitarist for New York Dolls. Palladin appeared on Thunders' 1978 debut solo album 'So Alone' and his 1985 album 'Que Sera Sera', and in 1988 they together released the album 'Copy Cats' on Jungle Records. She and Thunders also recorded a 1984 cover of Fred Wise and Ben Weisman's "Crawfish" for Postcard Records. 

 

Palladin became a member of The Flying Lizards around 1980, with whom she recorded the 1981 album 'Fourth Wall'. Palladin's "The Nuns New Clothes" appeared on 1983's 'The Batcave: Young Limbs And Numb Hymns' on the London Records label. [SOURCE: WIKIPEDIA]
