I have an internet rock and roll radio show on monday nights called, Kustom City Sounds and I celebrate the Bubblegum Classic of the Week during the third hour of the show, each week.
I've heard of the book, which even covers Eurovision. Aren't people like Britney Spears and a certain Mr Justin Bieber contemporary bubblegum?
I too love me some Bubblegum music and anyone who doesn't like it can eff off! :)
Professor Bubblegum's Echo Valley Podcast is hands down the best B-Gum podcast on the net.
Check it out for some of the more well known + LOADS of obscure B-Gum gems.
Kim Cooper & David Smay's "Bubblegum Music Is The Naked Truth" is a fantasic book all about B-Gum in all it's Capitalist, Snake Oil glory.
Yours,
Frank
Doc Phibes (Good name. Don't kill any of your colleagues , though.) , That's not silly , that's BRILLIANT. I wish I could have shown this to my Godchild , when she was two , playing Riff Randall and Angel Dust with her Barbies , and later introducing herself as "I'm_ _ _ _ , Rock'n'Roller! My other friend's Daughter , same thing.
Young girls like Riff Randall , because she's a FAN , not some coke - snorting groupie whore like Angel....ANGEL DUST !

OH ! He was saying "Fun Fun". I thought it was "Pleased to meet you....PUNK ROCK ! So you wanna be a pinhead? Hmm. It's so much easier to pick my nose?!".......I love that stuff , like at the end of "We're a Happy Family" - "Hey , where are my socks? Hey , where are my underwear? Tell me , my Son. What is Minimalism?" . It's like Cheech and Chong , when they'd slip little jokes under the main joke.

We're a happy Family & I don't care are my favorite Ramones tunes, it's already been said it's hard to name a bad one. Glad I saw them when I had the chance.
Gabba gabba, pleased to meet you, fun fun....

+1 for "You're Going to Kill that Girl"
and also "Teenage Lobotomy", "Bop Till You Drop", "Bonzo Goes To Bitburgh" and so much more.... no, can't decide - they were just great most of the time!

"Chain Saw" + "You're Going to Kill that Girl" = my all time faves.
I have to pull out my originals (1 or both mono) and give them a listen so I'll be able to compare and give the reissues a fair shake (and enjoy any improvements if available).

I have these mono mixes of the first two Seeds albums and they sound great:
Jymn , OK , knowing who he is , now , I see where he falls into the "Controversy" of Alec Palao making The Seeds' back catalogue not sound like shit , or merely acceptible , when it could be great , as it is , now. Especially the mono mixes , but the stereo mixes sound fine as wine , too. I'm sure it's difficult to get such warmth onto a CD - only release , but , he did it.
If he contested Hoffman , then , he knows what the Hell he's saying , as he's already been involved with some great CD reissues . Technical know - how is a good thing and all that , but , you , me , Glenn , anyone else who responds , we want better , and Alec rose to the call.
Don't know why I'm banned. The whole thread, well established, is also gone. Steve Hoffman is a mastering engineering, who was a pioneer for presenting warm, analog versions of classic albums on CD and SACD. Like you both, I want answers not blacklisting. Owner of both vinyl and CD's of the debut, I can tell you they both sound 'analog.' Not only that but with the room-filling reverb, who needs stereo?
I HAVE A TIN EAR , AND MY ENTIRE STEREO SETUP COST ABOUT $70 , NOT COUNTING A CD PLAYER THAT'S ABOUT 20 YEARS OLD , IT'S TRUE , BUT ALEC PALAO DID A GREAT JOB UNEARTHING AND REMASTERING THE MONO SEEDS MIXES. "A WEB OF SOUND" SOUNDS PARTICULARLY GOOD.
BUT , "THE SEEDS" IS A DRASTIC IMPROVEMENT ON PAST REISSUES. That's saying nothing about all the rarities in both packages.
I DON'T GET WHY YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN BLACKLISTED. I ALSO DON'T KNOW WHO STEVE HOFFMAN IS . Did he do the original denim delinquent magazine? Educate me , man,you know we went to different schools together.
I see a scan of the mono master. Where did it come from. Is that proof it wasn't lost? Also, Is the unedited version of Pushin' Too Hard a longer take on the lp (been a long time since I played the whole thing) or would it be the earlier single release that is an alternate mix (if not version) with earlier catalog#? And being banned for any such post sounds quite ridiculous and absurd. Sounds like a cover-up!
?
It's decent.. for free and I have half the tunes already.
Thanks for the Heads Up on the download. Squidbillies rule!
