OBSCUREST VINYL | Mayor Breslin - You​’​re Gonna Learn a Lesson in This Delicatessen

Mayor Breslin defo playing the flute between "bitch"es. Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull caught his act one day in the early 70s when he was passing through the Village. He was so impressed that he taught Mayor how to be a flautist to help him with his anger management issues.

[@benhaworth9937]

Mayor Breslin is the angry voice of reason we need in this world

[@nortonman5238]

Is? You mean was. This guy was one of the leaders of the civil rights movement. His music inspired thousands for their cause because he simply refused to care on the matter. In his early life, he gave out lamps, he gave out sandwiches, nobody seemed to notice. In his later years, he had to make a statement.

[@james_fisch]

@@nortonman5238 Mayor Breslin was the King of Reason. People offered each other lamps in trying times, we learned so many lessons in the delicatessens, and it feels like a bygone era now when I go to Subway with a lamp, with no one wanting to know what I need to say when my order gets screwed up.

​@@nortonman5238And later in life he adopted his famous "Peace Through Violence" approach. Unfortunately, other civil rights leaders objected because his violent outbursts were never provoked by civil rights matters, and started distancing themselves from him. A few brave souls still keep true to his message though, exposing their genitals in public and beating people who inconvenience them in the name of freedom. Gone too soon.

[@Styxhexenhammer666]

I learned that lesson long ago. I entered the local deli and Mayor Breslin was there. He glared at me briefly, then began hurling chunks of superheated pastrami at me, then he beat the dude at the deli counter with a head of lettuce until it was shredded, then slapped it on a grinder and vaulted over the counter, ramming that bun full of pepper jack and every meat he could find. He didn't even pack it up, just tossed it in my lap, made another, and was shoving it down as he left. Never said a word to anyone.

[@velvetandverain]

pastrami... the most sensual of all the salted, cured meats.

[@drrockkso8882]

When I was living in New York during the 1970s, Mayor Breslin's temper in slow food lines was legendary all over the city. I remember taking a buddy who was visiting from out of town to Katz' in the East Village for lunch. As usual there was a line halfway down the block. But as soon as they saw Mayor Breslin rounding the corner with that look in his eyes, everybody said "oh shit, Mayor's comin'" and cleared a path to the front. My confused friend asked "Wait, why does that guy get to cut the line? Who is he?" as Mayor walked up to the counter where some tourist was complaining to the cashier about the mustard options. Within 15 seconds Mayor grabbed the poor bastard and threw him through Katz' front window, sending him flying onto the sidewalk in a shower of broken glass, then calmly returned to the counter and ordered himself a brisket on rye. I turned to my stunned friend and said "You do NOT wanna learn a lesson in this delicatessen."

[@BrokenHedgehog]

Rumor has it that the reason for how sublime the flute solos in Mayor Breslin's songs are is that he made every flutist he hired listen to an unreleased song called "Play It Right Or You'll Be Playing It With Your Ass." That song was unreleased due to being used as evidence in a then-ongoing court case between Breslin and a flutist who had to get a colostomy after suffering injuries from a flute being jammed up his rectum.

Back in the 80s, I walked to the deli on 14th Street to get my grandmama some ham. As I approached, it looked like a bomb had gone off. Deli meats and cheese everywhere. The doors blasted open and out walks THE Mayor Breslin! I was star-struck and shouted out his name, he turned, looked me dead in my soul, and said, "You want some too, sucka?" I couldn't move or speak. He then swiftly punched a stack of pepper jack cheese right into my face. As I regained consciousness, the mayor asked me, "Did you learn your lesson, fool?" I said."Yes, Sir!" He helped me up, brushed me off, and handed me the ham that I'd come for, plus a turkey bacon club. That sandwich sits on my mantle to this very day.

My boss at a previous job was from New York. He was at the DMV one day, and of course it's busy as hell cause it's in NYC. Big city DMV and it's the middle of summer, heat wave, everyone smells and sweating like it's a gym. 5:00PM rolls around and there's like a hundred people in the place waiting to be served who didn't have an appointment. Over the speaker you hear the announcement of closing and to come back another time, etc. The people were disappointed and there was even a few yelling. But center stage was Mr Breslin. He was just about to be served in the 'Appointments' line. To the uninitiated, the 'Appointments' line is for people who had made an appointment, not having to wait like others being served. When he found out he would have to come back another day he went absolutely ballistic. He started shouting about 'what the fuck is the use of an appointment if they don't keep it?' He tipped over a vending machine, and he proceeded to verbally thrash anyone who opposed him, including security. Eventually, the Manager folded and decided to make an exception and help him right there on the spot. Breslin responded by picking up the queue barrier and started swinging it around and declared he 'didn't want to drive a car no more, not in this backward ass city'. He was eventually wrestled out of the place by a few security guards but nearly everyone in the DMV looking on was laughing and cheering the man on. He almost inadvertently started a riot when he was arrested, but it was broken up. I heard Breslin got out of it on some minor charge and slap on the wrist, and did it representing himself in court. I also heard he drives illegally to this day but most police don't even want to deal with him so they let it go. They don't make em like that anymore.

Mayor Breslin later spoke of his decision to record this sleeper hit in a 1983 Rolling Stone article: “I put out that joint not just cause I knew it would play good live, but as a warning to Deli-Dalliers everywhere; you ain’t getting away with that shit on my lunchtime. Hurry up or you’ll find out what the fuckin’ counter tastes like.” According to all who met him, his uncompromising attitude was a steadfast feature of his personality prior to and throughout his career and indeed his life.

Despite the critical acclaim that Mayor Breslin’s music received all over the world, his tours, most famously (or infamously) the Bastard of the Bodega Tour in 1984-85, were rife with outbursts and violence against concert goers, Breslin stopping shows several times to make subs in his dressing room (he reportedly demanded a hefty supply of deli supplies in his tour riders), and half attempting to sing songs with his mouth full, and his constant attack on concert promoters with his vast collection of lamps. A very committed musician and innovator of aggro-funk as a genre, and a highly revered flautist (himself going so far as to call Jethro Tull’s Ian Anderson a “one note honky”) but his career was undone by his very hostile and violent personality.

I swear Mayor Breslin was "born" in the bad side of Augusta GA, which is just Augusta GA.

It would be an honor if you used my idea for a theme for the next Mayor Breslin song: the same amount of rage towards people who drive below the speed limit in the fast lane and refuse to use it for passing

[@ObscurestVinyl]

Dude…I’m not even kidding I had that exact same thought for a song! It’ll happen haha

Seeing this after listening to “cruising for a contusion” is crazy

God damn, Mayor Breslin's still got it. I saw him stop by the Flying Hippo a few years back enjoying a croque madame, as soon as this came on everyone got all quiet.... Fantastic guy though. Still had some moves for his age, gave the poor kid behind the counter the fright of his life when he joined the jam. Need to find more of Trip's work though. that guy's got some pipes, too bad he hit his prime before breslin hit the scene, that'd be a helluva duo on the stage.

Fun fact: Ian Anderson played the flute solo!

[@monsieurgolem3392]

I just made the remark, lol, you're not the only one.

[@dragonclaws9367]

I am standing on one leg in respect for the solo.

[@nailedtoeternity]

More Mayor Breslin please.

Worst spanking of my life was when I sang this song as my mom made my school lunch one day.

[@vennic]

When is this election gonna end? I got lamps and delicatessen lessons to give!

[@kayjay135]

I just learned where "Deli" comes from - I had no clue. I was flabbergasted seeing a german word on the cover, but now it all makes sense. You might say... I was gonna learn a lesson
