Sorry I missed this , Steve. The Seeds documentary still has yet to be shown in Chicago. And it's not for lack of trying on the parts of film fest jurors who prefer their music NOT dry as toast......

Radio What Wave Friday December 16/2016 Jesse Locke Interview and Simply Saucer Special
We had the honour of a phone interview with Jesse Locke, author of Heavy Metalloid Music, The Simply Saucer Story on this week's edition. Jesse has gone below the surface and back in time to get the full story on one of Canada's most influential (yet unknown) rock'n'roll combos. We had him yammering about the book and answering some really off the wall questions....and it was a lot of fun!! We all learned something! Book release party is tonight in Hamilton, right above Hammer City Records and the Saucer will be playing!!
1. Simply Saucer....Now's The Time For The Party....from the Half Human Half Live CD and a great song to start the show! And speaking of which, this was our first offical friday night show in the new time slot....4 to 6PM on fridays!!
2. Simply Saucer....Instant Pleasure....from Cyborgs Revisited. Recorded back in the mid 70's by Bob Lanois (brother of the more famous Dan) in his parent's basement, well before they moved out and created the monster of a recording industry. This and the next 3 songs are what put SS on the musical map!! Unreleased until 1989, by Hamilton scenester/music geek Bruce The Mole Mowat, this blew a lot of minds, mine included. Still remember the day this showed up in the mailbox, opened it up and was expecting a tame/dated version of their earlier single, She's A Dog (on Gary Pig Gold's Pig Records 1978). Nope, total mindwarp of convoluted protopunk/VU/Stooge/experimental madness that still blows my mind to this day!
3. Simply Saucer....Electro Rock.... as above.
4. Simply Saucer....Nazi Apocalypse...as above.
5. Simply Saucer...Mole Machine...
And right around this time, Jesse called in and we did the record/music geek yammer fest!!
6. The Chessmen....Time Machine....from the CD that comes with the book. Chessmen were a Hamilton garage influenced combo that as we found out during this show, released their one LP on the same day Cyborgs Revisited came out! The Chessmen LP came out on Zapp Records, which was a store in Hamilton. Met the owners years previous as they would always be at the Hamilton Record shows and they would be the dealers with the stuff I was looking for at the time (60's garagepunk and anything weird/unusual).
Here's some more info about The Chessmen....they did many Op Art dance/events in Hamilton and Brantford of which we attended a couple. Full on psych geekiness with light shows, dancers, costumes etc. The Chessmen were also on a couple of What Wave compilations, including Mr Garager's Neighbourhood and even appeared on a Narduar compilation. Played London a few times, namely Electric Banana and Call The Office and yes pictures exist. Our good pal Rick Blythe was guitarist and he was best man at our wedding many years ago. Drummer Michael White recently released the award winning book, Popkiss: The LIfe and Afterlife of Sarah Records, published by Bloomsbury Academic. We met Michael as a young teenager, well before he was in any bands, at record shows here and there and he even published his own zine for awhile (name escapes me).
7. The Loved Ones....Shake Some Action....also from the CD with the book and this is Gary Pig Gold's combo, doing one of my all time fave tunes!
8. Third Kind.....Vekki....also from the CD with the book and a bit of a Saucer band.
9. The Bards...Bus Stop....demo from the late 80's of a very early Gaven Dianda combo as Gaven has a part in the book. You may know of Gaven from Flashing Lights, a combo that had a song, Highschool. that got a fair bit of radio play here in Canada. This is young teenagers doing the harmony vocals on this one....way beyond their years!
10. Edgar Breau....Dandelion Kingdom....from his Patches Of Blue CD from 2012. Edgar was lead guitar, singer and songwriter for Simply Saucer and his solo stuff is almost a 180 turn musically.
11. Simply Saucer....She's A Dog....live recording from CIUT 5/27/2007. CIUT brought SS into the studios for a couple hours one sunday, and this is just a taste of what went down.
12. Simply Saucer.... Give It Away....from 1976 and came with a recent 7" that came with some kind of frisbee if memory serves. Can't for the life of me find the frisbee since we moved, hence the missing details.
13. The Bards....Nowhere Man....from the same session as above....again, this is 16 year old kids doing this!!
14. Edgar Breau....Story Of Simpy Saucer....live recording that Edgar gave me last time we had him onair here on Radio WW...sorry about the sound quality, but the song really does tell the story.
15. Death Drive....I Wanna....brand new demo from this Montreal combo featuring our pal Ockert Greef on the tubs. Protopunk and metal sorta combine on this one and their first show is coming up first week of January.
16. Gloria...Brain Dead...from their brand new Excelsis Stereo releaseon Howlin' Banana Records outta France. All girl combo that harken back to the sounds of the early 60's.
17. Never Betters....Violence...from their Bitchin' release and from London Ontario. For some odd reason, they've topped the charts here at CHRW...sign of good things to come?!?
18. Lucy and the Rats....The Situation....from a brand new 7" on Dirty Water Records out of the UK.
19. Terminal Licks....Come Out Tonight....from a posthumous 7" on It's Trash Records.
20. First Base....If I See You With That Girl Again....brand new 7" on La Ti Da Records and for some reason I called them 4th Base onair....braindead! Very very nice hook in this powerpopper!
21. Coaching For Sara....Tonites The Night....from their recent self titled debut CD and from right here in London....they have a show on Wednesday December 21 at Fitzrays and they go on at 11PM....schedule accordingly!
22. The Flintettes....Same Faces....yet another brand new 7" on La Ti Da Records and another fine powerpopper!!
23. Bath Salts....Jesus Took Me Drinking... from their recent Mardi Gras CD and from right here in London.
24. Red Arms....Hindsight....from their 7" on Yeah Right Records and from here in London.
25. Common Cycles....Temptress....from a download and yet another combo from London ontario....get out and support these local combos when they play out!!
26. Yeah Bud....Wast My Daze.....from a download andyet another combo from London....
27. Charles Bradley....Changes....from the LP of the same name and one of the best things I've heard from 2016. Our best goes out to Charles as he's facing some health issues!
We've gone way overtime and there's no indication of any backup, so we're switching over to pre-recorded as I got places to be!
Huge Thanx to all that phoned in, emailed, facebook messaged etc to welcome and congratulate Radio WW on the new time slot!! We do it for you loonies that listen every week!!
Next week, it's ALL Xmas and holiday tunes, including some of your soon to be favourite holiday tunes!!

Radio What Wave Playlist Friday Dec 9....Canadian PowerPop Special Part 5
Final episode on our trip across Canada and yammering about and playing the bands that played (and some still do) powerpop. On this final edition, we finish our look at London Ontario's combos, go west down the 401 to Windsor and then cross the Prairies to Vancouver/Victoria which has always been a hotbed for powerpop.
1. Dustbin Flowers....Bayside Jenny....from their self titled debut CD and a song that shoulda been a radio hit! As so many powerpop/pop tunes should be!
2. Giggleswitch....How Good You Look...from their VII CD from 2007. Local combo that is considered punk, but this song definitely has the hooks and background vocals to get played on this show. And they've just reformed (got back together, not been released from reform school) recently.
3. Ruth's Hat.....Show Me....from their Nostalgic For Right Now double CD from 2006. Not the song I meant to play, but still a pop tune from these guys who used to play places like Call The Office and the Brunswick.
4. The Knaves....White Car....from a demo that a certain DJ (who actually drums in this combo) dropped into all the DJ's mailboxes here at CHRW several years ago. Most of the DJ's ignored this high energy powerpop...not me. Jesse who played guitar in this combo, is now in The Try Umphs who are in the process of releasing 2 songs a month for awhile.
5. Hurricane and Able.....Who's That Girl?....from their 2013 download The Last Temptation. A duo that is half London and half Toronto based and basically a studio band. They've played out once or twice and I've given up pestering them to play London....LOL...
6. Hurricane and Able...Day More Day....from their Thin End of the Wedge download, probably from 2015.
7. Coaching For Sara.....Look Around....from their self titled debut CD that came out earlier this year. They're working on more recording right now, and we'll be spinning it as soon as we get it to our sweaty palms! My fave local powerpop combo and they've got a coupla shows coming up, December 21 at Fitzrays and January 7 at East Side.
8. Fine Print....Tonight....from their wonderful self titled CD from 2013. They also released a cassette on the What Wave label....very limited.
9. Square Root of Margaret...Hollywood Will Find A Way....from their Teragram Photeur CD from 2002 and from just west of London in Chatham Ontario....not the same Chatham that Wild Billy Childish and his band of pranksters came from.
10. The Spys....Underground....from their only 7" from 1980 and from Windsor Ontario. There were 2 different sleeves for this one, and it was recently re-ished by Ugly Pop Records out of Toronto. After releasing this record, the band re-named itself The Nelsons and upon returning to the Cedar Lounge, gave away tons of this 7". My buddy Derek and I both grabbed one and we both put them on the dash of his car when we were leaving. It was the middle of winter, cold as fuck and he had the heater on full to help defrost the windshield. And you guessed it, 2 severely warped records!!
11. Popular Mechanix....Ice Box City....from their self titled first LP from 1979 and from Winnipeg. The whole LP is filled with fast hook laden powerpop! Got to see them at The Cedar Lounge back then and remember them doing a few early Who covers in with the originals. They released one other LP, not quite as good as this one, but that's just my opinion.
12. Telepathic Butterflies....A Final Word...from An Album on Rainbow Quartz Records out of the US, but this band was from Winnipeg. Rainbow Quartz was a label that specialized in powerpop and I still search out anything on this label that I don't have. Very Beatles/Big Star influenced.
13. The Perms....Bring You Down....from their Better Days CD from 2005 and also from Winnipeg. These guys used some well placed horns and at this point, I gave a shout out to our pal The Invisible Man, a horn blower in many ska combos and DJ on UMFM!!
14. Jr. Gone Wild....Old Blue....from their Less Art More Pop LP from 1987 on BYO Records out of California, but these louts were from Edmonton! Great Byrds jangle on the guitars with loads of 60's pop sounds on this label that was known for punk rock. Saw these guys a few times in this lineup and the shows were completely unpredictible due to alcohol, testosterone and probably some man made drugs! I had them doing a sunday night showcase at Key West many moons ago. We had a great writeup in the local newspaper and the place was packed. Only one problem, the band wasn't there!! They had spent the day in Toronto consuming beer and after many frantic phone calls, they showed up and proceeded to load in faster than lightning and start playing! Put on a truly amazing set although a few people had already left. And yet another time, again at the Key West here in London, they were so drunk they were doing Black Sabbath covers and almost falling over each other...luckily only a few saw this train wreck. A documentary on Jr Gone Wild is due out soon and there may be some pics from the Key West shows.
15. Chilliwack....Fly At Night....from their Segue Lp from 1977 and one of the few Canadian powerpop combos that were getting radio airplay here in Canada. They had several really cool pop tunes and thought this one would fit the show best.
16. Grapes Of Wrath....You May Be Right....from their These Days CD from 1991 and from Vancouver. They released at least 3 CD's, all of which got loads of airplay here at CHRW and many other places. Very nice hook in this one.
17. Cub....My Chinchilla....from a 7" EP called Hot Dog Day on Mint Records from 1993. 3 piece combo that played The Embassy here in London at least a few times. They released many other singles, CD's and appeared on many compilations and from Vancouver as most of the combos for the rest of this episode.
18. New Pornographers....Chump Change....from their Electric Version CD from 2003. Another combo that is well known across Canada and get lots of airplay from mainstream radio. They are also a really good pop combo!
19. Bum....Weekend....from a 7" from 1992 and from Victoria BC and sent this one out to Jon Traut from the Boy From Nowhere as he called in just prior to this being aired! Bum were more influenced by Cheap Trick and members showed up in this next combo....
20. Budoken....You Don't Stop Lovin' The Band....from their Spin A Little Gold CD from a few years back.
21. The Sweaters....The Pop Thing....from a CD of the same name from 1991 and validates this whole pop show!
22. The Modernettes....Barbra....from their Teen City EP from 1980 and a band that coulda and shoulda but somehow didn't! This is a song that should be blasting out of the car radio as you cruise the back roads with the top down!!!
23. The Modernettes....Teen City... as above....
24. Secret V's....Modern Boy....from a self titled 1980 12" EP and features a guy named Radial on bass. Radial is none other than soon to be well known, Ray Condo, who along with his Hardrock Goners crossed Canada many a time, preaching the gospel of rock'n'roll! Those Hardrock Goners used to stay at our place when they played London and we got to talking late one night and found out that Ray was Radial. Saw The Secret V's play the Cedar Lounge and Ray said they stayed in the upstairs rooms above the club and let's just say that wasn't the best accomodation here in London....LOL...
25. Female Hands....Divided By 3....from a 1980 self title EP on Quintessence Records. Got this back in the day when I'd buy just about anything that looked interesting and glad I grabbed this. Picked it up when City Lights Book Store had an actual record bar upstairs with loads of new wave/punk records and a young lady ran it. Picked up many singles and the first Dead Kennedys record there as well.
26. Pointed Sticks....Perfect Youth....from the LP of the same name from 1980 and a real game changer when I saw these guys at the Cedar Lounge....they were the first combo that I can remember covering a Sonics song...The Witch!!! And this was right around the time I was discovering Pebbles records (again that record bar at City Lights) and digging and realizing where all these punk sounds were coming from ....60's garagepunk and a bowl haircut for me please!! And then realizing that there were others out there with the same mindset...ie Chesterfield Kings, The Last, Droogs and more!!!
27. Pointed Sticks....Destitute....again from 1980 and a bonus track on the Perfect Youth CD on Zulu Records. Pointed Sticks opened for Teenage Head in the fall of 1980 at the Spoke and Rim at Western University here in London. The Teenage Head live sets aired over CHRW and I managed to tape that. Does anyone know if the Pointed Sticks portion aired and if so, who has a copy that I can trade for??? OCD's got a hold on me!!
28. Young Canadians....Just A Loser...from the This Is Your LIfe EP from about 1980 and features Art Bergman on guitar/vocals. At the time, Art was called Canada's Lou Reed.....monotonic vocal, deep lyrics, hard to deal with due to drugs/alcohol etc... Art has lived through it all, and is still around to this day doing the solo thing and was through town in the last year or so....missed that show.
29. 64 Funnycars....Fading Away....from their 7" EP from 1990 and from Victoria BC. Caught these guys at Call The Office and managed to get all their releases at that time. Nice pop combo.
30. The Smugglers....Walking Out On Love....from a 7" from 1994 and at one time, one of Canada's best known underground combos as they travelled the world, released records around the world but never did well right here in London Ontario! Singer Grant Lawrence, whom you may know of via CBC Radio, is presently working on a book about this combo and might even be some pics from right here in London. I've never seen a grown man kiss another mans bare ass, except when The Smugglers were playing at Call The Office one night....no names, ask me sometime.
31. New Town Animals....Sitting Alonge With You....from the Is Your Radio Active CD from 2001 and Jeffy Clone is in this band. Some members went on to The Briefs.
32. The Clones....Forgetting What I Know....from the Need A Wave CD from 2003. Jeffy Clone and more jeffy clone....LOL....
33. The React....Only Living For You....from a recent 7" on the La Ti Da label and features a member of The Tranzmitors....
Goddamn, ran outta time but certainly not tunes...next up was going to be Vancouger and then a bunch of Tranzmitors singles....maybe next show!!
Big thanx for all the phone calls, emails, facebook messages and Heys!!! Back again on Friday Dec 16th from 4 to 6PM and we'll be yammering with Jesse Locke about his brand new book on Simply Saucer!

Radio What Wave December 8/2016 Playlist.....all Women's Voices Show
1. Honey B and The T-Bones....Bumble Bee...from their 1992 CD Shake Your Shimmy and from Finland. This trio used to play London fairly regularly at a place called Leadbellys. For some reason they got on the blues circuit, yet they were more of a rck'n'roll combo.
2. Queen Beeva.....The Horny One....from a demo from this local combo featuring Jeffy B on the guitar and from 1999.
3. Patsy's Rats....Rock and Roll Friend....from the latest batch of La Ti Da singles that just came out. This combo is from Portland and Patsy is supposedly the daughter of Howie Gelb.
4. The Johnnies....Your Girl....from a recent demo and from Toronto. A timely song as this is about the issue we have here in Canada of missing Aboriginal women.
5. The Hook Up....Bellringer....from their soon to be released product on Transistor 66 Records out of Winnipeg.
6. Lost Patrol....Second Time Around...from a 1988 7" from this Windsor Ontario combo who appeared on many What Wave releases and played London many times. They have a reunion show on Dec 27th in Windsor.
7. Go Four Three....Roxy Roller....from a 7" from 1988 and from Vancouver.

10. Stolen Minks....Viola Desmond....from their High Kicks CD from 2008 and extremely timely as this morning it was announced that Black civil rights pioneer Viola Desmond will be on our soon to be released new $10 bills!! Guess we'll be calling this the $10 song soon! The Stolen Minks were from Halifax (I accidentally said Sydney on air) and played London at least twice, both great shows!
11. Dead Rabbits....No Way...from the Boot Two The Head CD from 2002. This was a live show at Call The Office to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the closing of the Cedar Lounge here in London. The Cedar Lounge was our first and only exclusive punk/new wave/whatever club here in London and ran from 1978 to 1982.
12. The Plasmatics....Monkey Suit....from their first LP, New Hope For The Wretched from 1980 and a request by Danny.

23. Aretha Franklin....I Never Loved A Man...from the Rare And Unreleased double CD on Rhino/Atlantic and this song is from 1966. On some of these demos, Aretha's voice cuts through like a razor!! Recommended even if you're just a casual fan of the Queen Of Soul.
24. Nina SImone....Mississippi Goddamn....from a Greatest Hits CD and from 1964 and very timely in these changing times.
Hope you enjoyed this all female show as it's an annual thing and loads of fun to compile....so much to play and so little time!

Radio What Wave Playlist December 2/2016 Canadian PowerPop Special Part 4
This is the fourth installment of our Canadian PowerPop Special and we start a band from Ottawa, then head east to Montreal, to the Maritimes, then back to Sudbury Ontario and then head south to London Ontario, home of many a fine power pop combo....and this show aired on Friday December 2nd from 4 till 6PM.
1. Steve Adamyk....20/30....from a 7" on Ptrash Records from 2010. This Ottawa based powerpopper has released many records around the world and everyone I've heard has been really good!
2. The Mighty FFud....Caught...from their self titled CD from 2014. This is the start of our journey through the powerpop combos of Montreal. On guitar and vocals is former Londoner Mark Goodwin, who will show up in a London based combo much later in this show. Caught the Mighty FFud live at Call The Office a few months ago and they put on a mighty fine powerpop show and would highly recommend catching these guys live if you ever get the chance.
3. April Wine...Tonite Is A Wonderful Time To Fall In Love...from their Greatest Hits LP and from 1975. They may be an over the hill arena rock combo, but they still did a couple of cool powerpop tunes over the years.
4. Pagliaro....Some Sing Some Dance....from a self titled LP from 1971. Remember this so well when it was played on AM radio back in the 70's and still dig this one as much today! Pag made it to Toronto a month or 2 ago, and was courted by the rock royalty there as seen in many pictures on FB. The King of Quebec music and almost unknown outside the borders!! Cept here at Radio WW where we idolize the guy......and in Denim Delinquent zine!!
5. Walnut Kids....Can't Stand 'em....from a 7" on Going Gaga Records from 2009 and featuring our pal Seb on the skins. This is one fine slab of pop and made my list of faves from back in 2009!! So 1977!!!
6. The Datsons....Thief In The Night....from a 7" and on the Ricochet Sound label, home of The Gruesomes. Not sure when this came out, but definitely remember The Datsons opening up for The Gruesomes here in London at Call The Office....
7. The Teenbeats....I'll Never Win....from a 7" on the Gamma label. Got this one from our pal Ralph Alfonso, so assume they are from Montreal....
8. Dany Laj and the Looks....Match...from the CD of the same name from a couple years back. Dany comes from Northern Ontario, moved to Toronto around the time this was recorded and presently resides in Montreal. Recently did the North American tour thing with the King of PowerPop, Mr Paul Collins. Caught the show here in London, and as always, DL and The Looks delivered!! One of my fave active powerpop combos!
9. Dany Laj and The Looks....Best Thing In Town...from their recent Word On The Street LP that is one of those LP's that I can play over and over and never tire!
10. HighDials....Diamonds In The Dark....from the A New Devotion CD on Rainbow Quartz records. Caught these guys live when they released this and they put on a Fantastic show!! Lots of 60's influences of the pop and psych variety combine with some really nice song writing on this one! Another one that I never tire of!
11. The Minstrels....Rhythm In Her Head....from the Come Out To Play EP on What Wave Records from 1989. At the time, this trio was based in Quebec City, but later, tended to move all around North America. Loads of early Beatles influences, mersey beat, pop and garage all combined to give this combo a fun infectuous sound!! This should have gone places, but back in 1989, people all wanted CD's or cassettes.
12. Terminal Sunglasses....Antenna Dilemma....from their Wrap Around Cool LP on OG Records from 1985. This LP was just re-released recently on bright pink vinyl.....haven't seen it around anywhere yet.
13. Sonic Avenues.....Close To You...from their debut CD on Ricochet Sound from 2007. These guys are still around, releasing records and playing live. Just recently they were here in London but I missed them!
14. Chains...Soulin'...from their On Top Of Things CD on Get Hip Records from 2002. It's not very common for a Canadian combo to get a release on Get Hip, but these guys did it!
15. Sloan...Good In Every One....from the One Chord To Another CD from 1996 and originally from Halifax as we've left Montreal heading east on this Canadian powerpop trip. Sloan have had some mainstream success here in Canada and some recognition south of the border.
16. The Connexions.....Against The Tide....from a download the band sent us and believe they are from Newfoundland. The entire download was all songs like this one, guitar powerpop and the band said they even played London Ontario once.
17. Jill Porter....Just Ask....from her debut CD from about 2005. From Newfoundland and really fine rock'n'roll influenced powerpop circa late 70's style! One of my recent faves and was able to track down Jill on FB and she still does a bit of music once in awhile.
18. Jill Porter....Rock'n'Roll Songs.....as above.
19. Beaten Hearts....How It Ends....from a download the band sent us and from Moncton New Brunswick from about 2010.
20. Liquid Vapours.....Sticks To You...from the Devilla CD form 2010 and members come from various places in the Maritimes....Sydney and Charlottetown among them.
21. Thee Walkin' Jacks....She Tells Me....from the Drop Dead CD and feature members of the above couple of combos.
22. The Joliettes.....Girls Like Me....from a 7" on Going Gaga Records from 2010 and from Sudbury Ontario as we leave the Maritimes and head back to Ontario....
23. Almighty Rhombus....Even Though.....from a download this combo gave us when they came on Radio WW one day, probably sometime in 2013. They've played London a few times since.
24. The Statues.....Living In Lines....from the New People Make Us Nervous LP and from Sudbury. This trio have released records in many countries and played London at least 2 times.
25. The Statues.....Quality Assurance....as above.
26. NFG....Cyanide....recorded live at the York Hotel, now called Call The Office, probably in 1978/9. They were known as a punk combo, but those background ooohhss and ahhhss just reek of powerpop! As does those nifty little guitar hooks that Simon whips out. NFG morphed into 63 Monroe which is still active to this day.
27. The Stoves.....Look Through Any Window.....live recording from the Cedar Lounge from 1979. 3 piece harmony vocals really bring out the hooks on this old Hollies number! Drummer Greg went on to Sheep Look Up, after serving time in The Zellots.
28. The Finks....Can't Say No....from their only 7" from 1987 and even made it to airplay on the local AM radio stations here in London! Bass player Pete left for Vancouver where he played in garagerockers The Fiends.
29. Itsa Skitsa.....Missing You....from a CD called In 4 Days and recorded aroudn 1984. Ian, the bass player for The Demics was in this combo.
30. Second Thoughts.....Wound Up.....from this self released 7" from 1980. Features guitar/vocals by Mark Goodwin who we heard at the very beginning of this show in his present combo, The Mighty FFud.
31. The Zellots....Soldiers....from a 1981 session with Peter Moore, the guy who won a Grammy this year for his work on the Bob Dylan re-issue. The Zellots were one of those bands that coulda and shoulda but didn't due to many things. There was an extensive interview done with the band in an issue or 2 of Mongrel Zine.
32. The Comos.....She Doesn't Care....from their 2006 CD Bandwidth and is their only release.
33. Lionel Lodge....Smile....from The Agitator CD from 2014. Lionel is currently residing in Austria and plays out there. We had him with a band doing a live to air about a year or so ago!
34. Legend Killers....You'll Get Yours....from the Better Than Hammerin' 7" that came out in 1989 on What Wave Records. Live, this was a loud rock'n'roll combo that put on some crazy beer fueled shows and drove crowds out of their minds! But this particular recording, is definitely powerpop oriented!
All out of time, but certainly not tunes....we'll be back on Friday December 9th, with Part 5 of the Canadian PowerPop Special, continueing along with several more London combos!
Thanx for all the phone calls, emails, facebook messages and Heys!!! On next week's Radio WW, it's an all female show as we commemerate the Montreal Massacre here at CHRW.

Radio What Wave Playlist December 1/2016 Canadian PowerPop Special Part 3
This is the third installment of our Canadian PowerPop Special and we start with a couple of bands from Toronto that we didn't have time to play last week. From there, we head east to Kingston and Ottawa Ontario.
1. The Job....The Night....from their self released CD from 2008 and from Toronto. Former Londoner Nyles Miszczyk was involved in this combo.
2. Flashing Lights.....High School.....from their 1999 CD Where The Change Is and feature Matt Murphy who is now playing in the band we hear next....
3. The Tuns....Back Among Friends....from their self titled debut LP that came out a few months ago. Members of Sloan and The Inbreds are also involved in this combo. Saw these guys live at Call The Office about a month ago, and man oh man did they ever have the background harmony vocals down tight and right!! It was like going back to seeing the early 70's power pop combos like Big Star and Badfinger! Check them out if they ever hit your town.
4. Ancient Shapes....Public Hymns....from the self titled LP that came out this past summer. This is a side project of Daniel Romano and this LP has the same songs on both sides!
5. The Shanks....Killing Time....from their 2010 CD The Dark Richard Show. This is a duo from Orangeville Ontario and when this was released, were doing some really fine powerpop. They've since changed drummers and gone off in a much heavier sounding curve, which has given them some success in Germany! They've released many since this CD and seem to tour a fair bit.
6. Marvelous Beauhunks....Kicking Around....from the Do Not Resuscitate CD from a few years back, but this was originally recorded in the early 90's. Around this time, the band got back together, released another CD and even a book about them! They were from the Oshawa area, just east of Toronto.
7. Pelt....Makeout/Breakout....from a demo this Kingston combo sent us a couple years back. Some fine new wave/influenced pop!
8. Polymorphines....Anna Lee...from their 2011 The Slip CD and from Ottawa as are the rest of the bands on this show. This CD was produced by Tim Kerr (Big Boys and TONS of other bands) in Austin Texas and when these guys dropped in on Radio WW a few years back, they had lots of stories about their trip to Texas. The Polymorphines released at least 3 other CD's of jangly poppy/garagey type stuff that is a really fun listen.
9. White Wires....Girly Girly Girly....from their debut LP on Going Gaga Records out of Ottawa. Tight infectuous power pop with all the right hooks in the right place. Caught this trio live here in London a few years ago, and they were loads of fun!
10. White Wires...I Can Tell....from their second CD, White Wires II which came out in 2010.
11. The Felines....Dance With Me....from the Ottawa compilation, Ottawa Gaga Volume 1 which came out in 2009. The drummer of the White Wires, Allie, was involved in this combo.
12. Girlfriends.....Shirt and Pants....from the Mac Lewis album and from Ottawa.
13. Bureaucrats.....Grown Up Wrong....from the compilation Smash The State Volume 2 and this song is from 1979. A few years back, there was a re-issue of a lot of the recordings of this early punk/new wave combo.
14. Mother's Children.... What'll Happen To All The Girls....from the That's Who Lp on Deranged Records from 2009. One of my fave bands who are doing this kind of powerpop thing these days. Caught them a few years ago opening up for Paul Collins Beat and they put on an excellent show!!
15. Mother's Children.....The Gang Is Back...from their latest LP, Lemon which was on Mammoth Cave Records.
16. Sick Fits...Shapes....from their self titled CD that came out in 2007. At least one of these guys went on to form Mother's Children. This combo isn't really power pop, as they have lots of glam and new wave and punk influences...all really good influences that they put to proper use!!
Thanx for all the phone calls, emails, facebook messages and Heys!!! On next week's Radio WW, it's an all female show as we commemerate the Montreal Massacre here at CHRW.

There's a book that is just out, hasn't even made it to the stores yet, about Simply Saucer by regular listener Jesse Locke.

If you have any questions for Jesse, be sure to send them my way prior to the show.

12. Velvet Underground....All Tomorrow's Parties....from the 1967 Velvet Underground and Nico LP. The one with the banana on the cover.
13. Velvet Underground....Guess I'm Falling In Love (instro version)....from the Another View LP from 1986. Recorded in 1967 as a demo and the in the red guitar sounds always blow me away on this track!
14. Grinderman....No Pussy Blues....from their self titled debut from 2007. Nick Cave side project...
15. P J Harvey....Snake....from the Rid Of Me CD from 1993. Polly has done some work w/Nick Cave, but not this particular track.

Drummer Andrew Lewis has a show opening tonight at the Westland Gallery here in London. Andrew is a world famous poster artist, who travels the world. He has designed a coin for the Canadian Mint and a stamp (or 2?) for Canada Post. And he lives right here in London Ontario and you should check out his art at the Westland.

22. 63 Monroe....Weekend Punx....from the Hijack Victim LP that came out in 2005 in Italy. How many other London Ontario bands have an LP out in Italy....ya, that many!

23. 63 Monroe....1963....from a 7" they released a couple years back, had to cut it off as we ran out of time, but certainly not tunes or yammering....
