No matter what they say, Ickx Elle is more than just Denim And Leather !
Denim And Leather is a beginning !

Denim And Leather
Where were you in '79 when the dam began to burst / Did you check us out down at the local show /
Were you wearing denim, wearing leather / Did you run down to the front / Did you queue for your ticket through the ice and snow /
Denim and Leather Brought us all together / It was you that set the spirit free / Denim and Leather Brought us all together /
It was you that set the spirit free / Did you read the music paper from the back and to the front / Did you find out where to see your favorite band /
Did you listen to the radio every Friday night / Did hang around your local record store /
Denim and Leather Brought us all together / It was you that set the spirit free /
Denim and Leather Brought us all together / It was you that set the spirit free /
Do you dream of playing guitar or smashing up the drums / Maybe you can learn to play the bass /
You can always be a singer like me and front the band / When on the stage we wait at your command /
Denim and Leather Brought us all together / It was you that set the spirit free /
Denim and Leather Brought us all together / It was you that set the spirit free /
It was you - that set the spirit free / It was you - that put us here today /
It was you - that filled the concert halls / It was you - that set the spirit free /
Denim and Leather Brought us all together / It was you that set the spirit free /
Denim and Leather Brought us all together / It was you that set the spirit free

Who is Jacky Ickx?
Born in the 60´s Jacky was a Race car driver, and he drove so goddamned fast. He never did win no checkered flag, but he never did come in last.
He'd say "El Sob. Number One." With a bocephus sticker on his 442, he'd light 'em up just for fun.
He was 23 years old when he turned colorblind in a spectacular startcollision. He retired from racing in 1984.
In 1988 Mr. Ickx settled down in Hope Creek where he joined the local gulfclub and met Mr. Geoffrey Braker. Geoffrey introduced him to Jackie Strike and her LARGE Party.
Colorblindness is a good qualification for a politician. Jacky Ickx now is a close counselor to Mrs Strike and chairman of the Global Subcommittee.

Ickx's Political Roots
Ickx never really was fascinated by the origins of political tendency. While driving his really fast cars he had other things in mind. Ickx does not recall
pondering politicality along the oval speedways of the US. It sure was not here where Jacky's political ambitions were born. It was Jackie Strike who
introduced him to political thinking.
