If you have an iTunes account ID, sign in and rate/review it! The more ratings & reviews, the more exposure it'll get. Thanks!

I had to resubmit the songs through TuneCore. One of them was in mono and that screwed up the process of getting them into the other online stores like iTunes & Amazon. So I had to re-rip the wav in stereo and resubmit. It should hopefully be in all the stores soon (about a week late). Ugh..

Listening to Volume 9 right now. It rules!  Many thanks to the bands, Kopper, and Mr. Blickenstaff for the kick-ass cover!!

Hello,

I'm trying to write a short history of the Medway scene and the bands involved (The Milkshakes, Armitage Shanks etc). If anyone was involved or just loves the music and knows a bit about it I'd be really grateful of any info passed my way.

Cheers.

On Saturday October 6th I will be on the air and the web from 1:00-3:00PM EST.  You can listen at 89.7 WITR in Rochester, NY or streaming live at http://witr.rit.edu

He is a Legend, no doubt! 

Next Thursday (the 2. Thursday in October, as his last transmission) i believe, is suppose to be „John-Peel-Day“. A day to be remembered!

Recall lot of people and myself in Berlin listen to his Broadcast and recording on Tapes (which are almost useless now): The John Peel archiv online is our rescue!

„Teenage Dreams, So Hard To Beat“  <3

Not sure if it fits the timeline, but Greg Lowery gets my vote.

-Erika

Greg Cartwright and Fred Cole!

Good

Thee Oh Sees!!!

Lerchio, 42, now residing in the Charleston, SC area by way of Chicago. Really into surf rock (all eras) and vintage R&R and just discovering some new-to-me garage ... crazy good.

No band or radio show to plug ... not at the moment anyway ... just think that I like this place.

 

Radio What Wave Playlist Oct 4/2012

1. Bloody Diamonds...Lady Of The Night...from the They've Got Secrets LP that just came out. Big Thanx to Bloody Diamonds for playing live to air last week on Radio WW!! And a great show that eve at the Black Shire Pub!

Bloody Diamonds visiting CHRW's Radio WW for a live to air 9/27/12

4. Cordcalling...When I Scream...from their CD of the same name, Cordcalling play tonight at The Black Shire Pub.

5. Pack AD...8...from their latest LP, Unpersons. Pack AD play Call The Office on Oct 13th. This song is filled with venom and hate and they usually dedicate it to me at live shows...

The Pack AD visiting WW HQ's and posing with our mascot, Rory The Wonder Dog!!

6. The Gruesomes...Get Outta My Hair...from their first LP, 13 Unlucky Hits, which has just been released on green vinyl on Groovie Records from Greece. Limited pressing of 800, but you should be able to find it or mailorder it.

The Gruesomes visiting our old WW HQ's back in the late 80's.

7. Evil Farm Children...Brain Buffet...from the brand new Garagepunk Hideout CD called Garage Monsters. We've had Evil Farm Children here in London many a time and they always put on a great show!

Evil Farm Children at Victoria Tavern here in London, 5/23/09

8. The Snails...Pollution...from their recently released self titled debut CD. It's on Action Records outta Greece.

9. Cile Turner...Crap Shootin' Sinner...from the compilation LP, Stompin'. Picked this up at Star Records in Oshawa the other day. Haven't been to Star for a few years and it's still the same, stacked with cool records!! For those that don't know, Oshawa is just east of Toronto and Star is well worth a stop if you're in the area!

10. Angry Samoans...Inside My Brain...from the 1980 EP of the same name. Angry Samoans are supposed to play Call the Office on this coming Wed night.

11. Angry Samoans...I Lost My Mind...from the 1990 LP. STP Not LSD LP.

12. Apecassette...Ambiguous...from the Stupid CD. 2 piece art/noise combo from Windsor Ontario who opened up for Bloody Diamonds last week.

13. Jehosaphat Blow...Oh Ya Oh Ya....download from this one man band who seems to move constantly.

14. Certain General...Hello My God...from the 1982 12" called Holiday Of Love. Certain General were based in NYC and had Londoner Marcy Saddy (X B Girls) on drums. They came up here in August of 1981 and played several shows while on vacation here. This is the start of our London only show to help promote our big event coming up on the weekend of Oct 26th, Graphic Underground London 1977-1990. The rest of the show is London bands from that era...with almost all of the songs being unreleased.

15. Boy From Nowhere...Slow Death...live at Call The Office 3/1/86. London's first 60's/70's garagepunk combo who only played cool cover songs.

Boy From Nowhere playing in our basement, 1986??

16. B5 Blue...It's My Pride...recorded live at Mortz's, early 90's. Boy From Nowhere morphed into B5 Blue and still only played cover songs, but did it with style and finesse!

17. UIC....Cracked Actor...recorded live at Key West Cafe 11/16/87. I don't even remember UIC doing a David Bowie tune, but here's the proof! And i musta heard it as i taped this show! Key West Cafe was a small upstairs bar that would pack people in for real rock'n'roll, which UIC specialized in!

UIC promo shot we did after a show..mid 80's???

18. Flying Squad...Lewd Behaviour...late 80's demo from this band that you either loved or hated, nothing in between! Biker rock long before it became acceptable!

Flyinq Squad after a gig at the Civitan Club...mid 80's???

19. Terminals...Billy Stick Totin' Jerk...from their only cassette, We Kill. Terminals were probably the first punk band in the city to adapt to the faster hardcore sound that started in the early 80's. They were instrumental in bringing many out of town bands to play in sleepy London Ontario.

20. Redline...Mystery Dance...recorded live at Fryfogles June 1983. Redline were more of a commercial new wave type of band than punk. Fryfogles is long gone, and it was host to many cool combos, among them; Panther Burns, John Cale, Black Flag, Flipper, The Professionals, Stranglers, 999, Rezillos, DOA and TONS more!! We did a special on Fryfogles a year or so ago on Radio WW and talked about the venue and played many of these bands and more.

21. The Generics...Someday...basement demo, but this song was included on their only 7". Buncha snotty kids when they arrived on the scene, but they certainly proved their worth!

22. Radio 4...Is God A Man...early 80's basement demo recorded by Chris Richards. Radio 4 evolved into Sheep Look Up.

23. Sheep Look Up...Jumper...from their early 80's cassette. This is one of those bands that coulda and shoulda, but just didn't! Their early demos are just amazing as can be heard here.

24. Legend Killers...Gunpowder...from their 1989 7" on What Wave Records. All of the above local bands will be on the 90m cassette tape we're releasing with What Wave zine 24 due out Oct 26th at Graphics Underground London 1977 - 1990 opening night.

Early Legend Killers promo shot..probably taken by Martha.

That's a wrap, thanx for all the phone-ins and emails. We're back next week with an all local show, playing music from about 1977 to 1990 in preparation for the Graphic Underground London show.

Show #392: "Classical Masterpieces Gone Rock"

Every 3 weeks I leave an open slot to do random themes and whatnot. This week I'm featuring rock and pop music of the 1960's and 1970's that incorporated classical masterpiece works into their music. During the psychedelic and progressive rock era, lots of bands took rock to a higher level, many creating their own classical pieces of art, and often did their own arrangements of classical masterpieces from composers from Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, Handel and many others. Tonight's show features some of my favorite classical masterpieces taken to a different level by rock groups to be heard and enjoyed by a whole different generation. Tune in tonight to hear rock music that incorporates a classical masterpiece by bands and artists like: Triumvirat, New York Rock & Roll Ensemble, Tinkerbell's Fairydust, Curved Air, Vanilla Fudge, The Nice, Sands, The Electric Light Orchestra, Yes, Egg, Renaissance, Le Orme, Beggars Opera, Novalis, Emerson Lake & Palmer, De Maskers, Eric Carmen, Ekseption, Procol Harum, Love Sculpture, and many others!!

Figured since they're a garage band this was the best joint to ask: Does anyone know anything about the Dandy Panthers? (what the musicians are doing now, contact info, etc.)

...all I've ever been able to dig up on 'em is this lousy last.fm page with their tune "Chester's Electric Orgy" (which is really want I'm after, be it on record or digital)...any leads, thanks in advance.

We got asked to do a guest mix stream for the folks over at the Get Bent webzine. Mostly punk & garage with a little indie rock tossed in for balance; had to show my local pride and kept it all to bands from the Pacific Northwest. Heavy focus on history, with classic garage & beat from The Ventures, Kingsmen, Wailers up through 80s & 90s punk from Poison Idea, The Gits and Bikini Kill. Lots of great smaller bands too, that only the locals would know. Check it out, we're pretty happy with how it turned out (except for the stupid half second gap their hosting service puts in between tracks).

I know there are people we missed - hopefully we'll get to do another volume some day.

UNREAL, MAN:):)!!!

Thanx Joanie, i´ve just discovered Skeletal Family and Play Dead.  i guess i´ve never heard them before. Better late than never! :)

I saw Tuxedo Moon open for Bauhaus in London in 1980 (on Halloween).  Also saw a show there w/ Wasted Youth, Sex Gang Children and UK Decay.  Pretty cool. Not sure if anyone's mentioned Skeletal Family, an overlooked band from the era. And Play Dead.

Tuxedomoon were great! They use to live in Italy in the 80s, I´ve seen them many times live. :) Did someone mentioned Devo or the Residents? Important bands back then.

Yep, I love goth too (Bauhaus live ´82? was simply fantastic!) but not only ... In general love most stuff from the 80s. It´s my time, my music and Kopper´s list could be my list too! In there i would add bands like Sonic Youth, Pere Ubu, Tuxedomoon, Pixies, the Sounds, Beasts of bourbon, Foetus, to mention very few more... 

One band who devastated me (about ´81) was Circus Mort, just 4 songs but WOW!!!!!!!!!! (I was also really impressed by their drums). Unfortunately i´ve never seen Circus Mort live just few years later, Swans (was great too:)

OK, I think this is where I should post this. Just uploaded a Droogs show to my blog, thought some may be interested:
