Inspired by Cameo frontman Larry Blackmon’s immense crotch cover, I got curious about the origins of the almighty codpiece—particularly about its place in contemporary culture and, especially, popular music. A bunch of artists have worn them, including Blackmon, Alice Cooper, Ian Anderson, and Blackie Lawless (his even shoots flames!).
A pretty interesting read, if a little “crotch-ety.â€http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Codpiece
