Tracklist? Still available?

Hey guys.. You gotta be joking right? How in this world can you suggest a BIG MUFF or a RAT to someone asking for a 60es fuzz sound?! What do you play with those, NIRVANA? Pearl Jam?! Hello this is a GARAGE post! Gimme a break
Waveclipper said it right..very thorough.
The sound of the fuzz is in the original 60es pedals, or clones. To be spot on they need to sport the closest layout and transistors.
Period.
To get the Satisfaction/the Chasers' "Inspiration"/the Entertainer' "At the Ginza" brassy tone would be a MAESTRO FZ1 (ghost effects and jimmy behan both make a clone but maybe with substitute transistors, masuto pedals makes a clone with the right transistors (all three based in europe); jerms -usa- used to make a part per part replica with original transistors but i guess not anymore, and on ebay you can find lowbroweffect's -usa- build with period correct transistors), NOT a fz1-a that is still ok for garage (thats what the kids that heards satisfaction went out and bought) but different sounding.
Uk freakbeat? Get a Tone Bender mki clone. Same names as above building it, and add Manlay Sounds (portugal). This can sometimes take you into fz1 tone, but with longer sustain and grittier distortion. Watch out this is hard to tame. But it's got that Heart Full Of Soul sound, etc.
USA garage: either the fz1 or the Germanium Fuzz Rite. Same guys as above building it.
Think I Think Im Down by the Harbinger Complex.
All of these pedals, being GERMANIUM, will be temperature sensitive and must be played through a smallish tube amp, id suggest max 15 watts power when recording.
The Sonics.. Id guess they used the early maestro fz1 or a just a desperately cranked valve amp.

Steve Ignorant’s Slice Of Life

‘Live at the Forum 2015’

Overground Records

OVER 151LP: 300 only

Bar Code: 689492174118

Release date: 6^th May 2016

Havingcut his punk teeth in Crass, Steve Ignorant’s latest project – Slice Of Life – allows for the more contemplative side of his song-writing to reveal itself. Like musical depictions of a British kitchen-sink drama, the songs provide vivid vignettes of the everyday. Both personal and universal, Slice of Life present ruminations from the bar stool honed on the late-night walk home. Musically, the band is built on an acoustic arrangement of piano, guitar and bass.

Steve’s songwriting had been an influence on Sleaford Mods’ Jason Williamson who became an instant fan of Slice of Life and requested they support them on their Key Markets tour.Each show would start with Mark Wynn, followed by Slice of Life and ending with the Sleaford Mods playing to capacity crowds. On and off stage the tour was a huge success and clearly showed what could be achieved when working with like minded people.

This album ‘Live at the Forum 2015’ will give a taste of that tour and will show that having shed the punk noise that defined Crass, Slice of Life retain the emotional impact and compassion that has long distinguished Steve’s work.

With preparations underway for a second studio album it was decided the pressing should be limited, so it’s available as one-off pressing of just 300 copies.

The album contains four live tracks which have yet to be recorded.

Slice of Life are:

Steve Ignorant – Vocals

Carol Hodge – Piano, backing vocals

Pete Wilson – Guitar, backing vocals

Pete Rawlinson – Bass guitar

Track listing:

Our World / Love And A Lamp-post / Slaughterhouse / Your Day Will Come / Eleven Chimneys / Stretford Blue /The Way Things Are / Slice Of Life

Radio What Wave Playlist May 5/2016   All Canadian 80's/90's Garage Special

1. The Gruesomes....What Wave....from Mr Garager's Neighbourhood LP, OG Records 1989. We're starting the show with a spotlight on The Gruesomes as they are playing this friday in Montreal and Saturday in Montreal. The Gruesomes started in the mid 80's, based in Montreal and are the band that the world associates the Canadian garage music scene with. Hugely popular in their lifespan, they managed to cross Canada many times, topped the college radio charts from shore to shore and release many records that are still in demand to this day. This particular track was a surprise to us, as we were compiling this LP and had no idea The Gruesomes were submitting it! It was their way of paying tribute to What Wave for all the times they stayed over at our place, eating our food, playing our records, watching our video tapes and just hanging out having fun! They were real easy house guests!

2. The Gruesome.....Medication....recorded live at Station 10, Montreal 5/9/1986. Very early live recording to give you an idea of their early live sound....although it really didn't change a lot over the year, just got tighter with the addition of drummer John 'Jed' Knoll and lots of live shows.

3. The Gruesomes.... Jack The Ripper 1....from their 7" on Primitive Records. It's been re-ished in Greece in the last couple of years.

4. The Gruesomes....Jack The Ripper 2... as above.

5. The Gruesomes....Get Outta My Hair....from their first LP, The Tyrants Of Teen Trash on OG Records from 1986.  Their debut longplayer and has since been released on CD on Ricochet Sound and is still in print.

6. The Gruesomes...Way Down Below....from their second LP Gruesomania on OG Records from 1987. This was the first LP to feature long time drummer John 'Jed' Knoll who replaced original drummer Eric Davis. Eric is the brother of bass player John Davis.

7. The Gruesomes....Unchain My Heart....from the Primitive 12" EP.

8. The Gruesomes.... Hey....from the Gruesomes third and final LP, Hey. This one had a corny video that got lots of play on Much Music (Canada's version of MTV) and lots of radio airplay and was a constant request at live shows. A fun and catchy tune that was perfect for the band!

9. The Gruesomes....3 Men 1 Coffin....from the A-Billy 7" EP that came with What Wave zine 18 and was also featured on the cassette Live In Hell that you could get at live shows. The live recording was done in Halifax, Nova Scotia on Canada's east coast and many many people claim to have been at this particular show!. This song was also featured on the Sundazed compilation CD Gruesomology 1985-1989 which came out in 2003. The Gruesomes were one of the very few 80's garage combos to have a release on Sundazed, one of the best labels for 60's re-issues.

10. The Gruesomes....Cry In The Night....recorded live at Key West, London Ontario 1/11/1987. This was the very first Gruesomes show here in London Ontario and was on a sunday night in the dead of winter. We were really concerned that few would come out, as The Gruesomes were fairly new and pretty much unknown around here except at WW HQ's. But those concerns were tossed aside when we showed up and the place was packed with people eager to see what all the hype was about! And The Gruesomes proceeded to tear the house down and played well over 2 hours that night! The first of many visits to London Ontario! They placed Key West once about a year later, and after that it was Call The Office with kids packed in like sardines for the dozen or more shows they played here.

11. The Gruesomes....I Try....from Thee Cave Comes Alive, Action Records, 2004 from Greece. This is a vinyl LP of tracks that were on the cassettes that came with What Wave zine. The tracks were picked out by George Rigas, who arranged to have the record released. This was per-facebook and in the early days of internet communication so it took a couple of years to find the bands and put this thing together! Well worth it, as the final product featured some of the finest garage combos of the mid 80's/early 90's.

12. The Gruesomes....Cave In....from the CD of the same name released 2000 on Tyrant Records.

13. The Gruesomes....You Gotta Believe.... as above. All The Gruesomes material is available on CD from Ricochet Sound in Montreal. There's lots of bonus tracks and liner notes with all the gory details.

14. Drums Along The Gardiner...Nuclear Plant....from Disgraceland, the cassette that came with What Wave zine #15. Drums Along The Gardiner were a late 80's garagepunk combo from Toronto that mixed a lot of late 70's punk into their sound, something that few were doing back in this time.  They are re-uniting next thursday, May 12th at The Garrison in Toronto for one night only.

15. Drums Along The Gardiner....Fish....from their one and only 7" record.

16. Drums Along The Gardiner....Speedin' In The USA.....from Baloney Sandwich, the cassette that came with What Wave zine #19. Drums Along The Gardiner played London a number of times, at the Key West a couple of times, the Brunswick and finally at Call The Office and had a bit of a following here.

17. Drums Along The Gardiner....75...the other side of their only 7".

18. Drums Along The Gardiner...Cincinnatti Blues....from a demo cassette they sent us back in the late 80's.

19. Drums Along The Gardiner,,,,Vagabonds....from Mr Garager's Neighbourhood on OG Records from 1989 as mentioned at the very beginning of this track list.

20. The Dundrells....Sometimes Good Guys Don't Wear White....recorded live at the El Mocambo in Toronto 5/2/1986 when they were opening for The Fleshtones.  This was the first time we saw The Dundrells and they put on a great show that night! The Dundrells will be re-uniting on Sunday May 15th at the Horseshoe in Toronto for Derek Von Essen's book release party for No Flash Please!, a book of monochrome pics of the Toronto scene from 1987 to 1992. There's also text, by former CHRW Music Director Phil Saunders. Derek is an excellent photographer and this book will be well worth picking up for fans of that era.

21. The Dundrells....Mr Nasty....from the compilation LP It Came From Canada Volume 2, a series of 5 LP's that chronicled the best of the independent Canadian music scene of the time period. OG Records released this series and it did really well on the Canadian college music charts, exposing many to what was happening across Canada.

22. The Dundrells...Girl, It's OK.....from their cassette release and a live version of this song was on a What Wave cassette called Live In London. Great catchy chorus on this one!

23. The Dundrells....Nothing On TV....their first 7" and a great power pop meets garage sound and one of those songs that coulda and shoulda made the AM radio charts back then!

24. The Dundrells....Sock It To Me....from their second 7" and a move towards funk/soul somewhat like The Fleshtones were doing.

25. The Dundrells....Hurt By Love...from the compilation LP For No Apparent Reason which featured almost all Toronto bands.  The Dundrells were from Toronto and were around in the early to late 80's and had a fairly large Toronto fanbase. They came to London several times and played at the Key West Cafe which was on the west side of Talbot St, between King and York on the second floor.

26. The Beaumonts....She Treats Me Right....from the compilation CD, Time Machine on Stomp Records from 1996. Early 80's combo of which some members formed The Cheshyres in Toronto in the mid 80's. This particular CD, is a really good compilation of what was happening in the Canadian garage music scene in the 80's to early 90's.

27. 10 Commandments....Not True....also from the Time Machine CD. 10 Commandments were based in Toronto, released several singles and LP's and appeared on many compilations. They were probably the first Toronto 80's band to immerse themselves in 60's garage sounds! Singer James Booth went on to CBC Canada as a producer and behind the scenes guy.

28. The Cheshyres....Too Many Women....also from the Time Machine compilation CD. Toronto based and only appeared on compilations during their life time. Drummer Ken Anderson moved to NYC and appeared in Optic Nerve and later the Ultra 5 and is presently in a folk duo with his wife and travels the world. Singer Wayne Pattern moved to London and joined the band the Evil Hoodoos whom we'll hear later on this episode.

29. The Enigmas....Windshield Wiper....from the Strangely Wild EP and from Vancouver. They released one other EP and also appeared on several compilations.

30. Terminal Sunglasses...Antenna Dilemma...from the LP Wrap Around Cool on OG Records from 1985. From Montreal and broke up not long after the LP was released as one of the members had problems with smoke in the bars where they played. This LP is set to be re-issued on pink vinyl sometime this summer. Guitarist Chris Burns still plays in bands to this day.

31. UIC....2 Plus 2....from It Came From Canada Volume 1. UIC were originally from Exeter, a small town just north of London Ontario. They moved to Toronto and did really well for themselves, released a couple of LP's and appearing on many compilations. They reformed at the Mike Star tribute show last month and blew the roof off the place as they sounded so GREAT!! It was like stepping back into a time machine pointed at 1987 as the boys haven't lost anything since those days. They're slated to play Toronto and London sometime late this summer, a show NOT to be missed!!

32. Electric Roaches....1 2 5....from a self released 7" and from Montreal. Don't know anything else about this one, except it's rather obscure.

33.  Lost Patrol....No Escape....from a self released 7" and from Windsor Ontario. This combo started as a straight 60's garage combo, but with a few member changes and the addition of Karen Marrero on lead vocals, they moved towards a heavier sound mixed with lots of garage and soul. Karen had, and still has, one of the finest voices around these parts.

34. Shadowy Men On A Shadowy Planet....Theme From TV...from one of their early 7" records. 3 piece instro combo who became big when one of their songs became the theme song for the hit TV series, Kids In The Hall! They released many singles, appeared on a ton of compilations and released a few LP's. Everything was collected on a box set for the last record store day. Live, these guys were really fun to see as you'd never know what they would play.

35. Legend Killers.....99th Floor....demo from 1986 and from London Ontario. These guys had the record of appearing on every compilation that we ever released! A record that can't be beat! They release a 7", cassettes, and later a CD and appeared on many compilations.  For a while, they were the most popular band on the bar circuit here in London and you were guaranteed a good time at a Legend Killer show!

36. Boy From Nowhere.... Heart Full Of Soul....from Thee Cave Comes Alive LP from Greece on Action Records. Long time London Ontario band that played just about everywhere here in the city and only appeared on What Wave cassette compilations. They also played at our wedding (as did UIC and The 3D Invisibles) and in our basement and have been back playing together for several years. Check them out live if you get a chance as lately, they've added Jade on keyboards for a more 60's type of sound!

37. Flying Squad.....Paint It Black....recorded live in Oshawa Ontario. Another London band, this band was disliked by many as singer Tim could clear a room with his facial antics while singing. But if you just listened, you'd hear one of the best voices around and some really fine biker rock! Flying Squad released a 7", cassette and appeared on many compilations.

38.  Captain Scarlet and The Mysterons.....Are You Really Gone?...from the 7" Four Whom The Bell Tolls that came free with What Wave 16 from 1988. 3 piece from London Ontario that featured Andrew Lewis on drums, who is now a world  famous poster designer. Singer Tom Dumphy is a member of The Rizdales, a country outfit known throughout North America.

39. The Mongrols....Plastic Girl....also from the above record. Another local combo who originally went by The Ungone, but switched names for an unknown reason. Not to be confused with the other Mongrels, another local band from the present. The Mongrols appeared on several compilations.

40. Frankenstein 5....Feel It... from their cassette and also from London Ontario. Our only pure 60's garage combo here in London. They appeared on many compilations and even did a short tour of the Eastern United States before packing it in.

41.  Broken Arrow.... You Ain't Trickin' Me....from the What Wave cassette Baloney Sandwich. Another local combo that featured at least one member of the Mongrols and played around town live a fair bit.

42...The Evil Hoodoos....Same All Over.....from a demo and another local combo here in London that featured a member or 2 of the Frankenstein 5 and Boy From Nowhere.

43. The Supreme Bagg Team....Crankin' With Elvis...from Mr Garager's Neighbourhood and also appeared on a What Wave cassette. These guys were from Toronto and played London at least once. They released a 7", LP and appeared on many compilations. This particular song is a fave of mine.

44. The Chessmen....Adventure....from their only LP released on Zapp Records and from Hamilton Ontario. The Chessmen played London a couple of times and hosted many of their own shows in Hamilton, bringing in out of town bands and creating a scene. They released this LP and appeared on many compilations. Drummer Mike White authored the recently released Popkiss book, the story of Sarah Records and also wrote for many publications.

45. Purple Toads.... Gonna Have A Good Time....from their first LP on Star Records and out of Oshawa Ontario. This song title summed up the Purple Toads as they always had a good time and opened for many of the bigger bands in Oshawa and Toronto. They played London countless times and released 2 LP's and appeared on many compilations.


Big Thanx for all the crazy phone calls tonite!!! And all those facebook messages, emails and Heys!!!! Glad to hear that some of you had as much fun listening as i had putting this sucker together!!! The 2.5 hours went by like nothing for me and brought back a ton more memories from those days!

19. Graham Parker... Saturday Night Is Dead...from the Squeezing Out Sparks LP from 1979. Been on a Graham Parker fix lately as he's such a great songwriter and many of his songs have an angry tone that's mixed with soul and pop sounds. Check out his early work, it's a great place to start investigating this long time artist.

20. Pretty Things.... Cold Stone....from the Singles A's and B's on Harvest Records and this track is from 1970. This goes out to lead guitarist Pete Tolson who just recently passed away. Pete was in the band from the early to mid 70's and was featured on many of their Swan Song Records LP's.

The 2 main members of the band, John Hamilton, drums (went on to The Diodes and The Secrets and plays in the current version of The Diodes) and Chris Haight, guitars (Viletone and The Secrets) were both heavily involved in the late 70's/early 80's Toronto punk/new wave scene.

Radio What Wave Playlist April 21/2016

We had The Thing From Outer Space, local surf combo as special guests as they were hosting London's First Ever Surf-A-Rama event! If you listen to the archived show, you can hear the guys have lots to talk about, which makes for a real easy interview!

1. The Sadies....The Side Track...from the Tales Of The Rat Fink CD. Not really a surf tune, but a great way to introduce a band that come from outer space.

2. Dick Dale...Miserlou....from the History Of Surf LP on Rhino Records and a great way to start the show with some of the more infamous surf tunes.

3. The Chantays....Pipeline.... as above.

4. The Belairs....Mr Moto.... as above.

5. The Surfaris....Wipe Out....from an original Dot Records 7" that i bought as a kid...in fact one of the very first singles purchased by me!

Radio What Wave Playlist April 14/2016

1. Calrizians....Wasabi Blast....from a demo they sent us recently. The Calrizians will be playing at The Dawghouse on Saturday April 23rd as part of the surf fest happening. And next week, we'll have some of the members of local surf combo The Thing From Outer Space as guests as we do an all surf show!

2. Coaching For Sara....Look Around...from their about to be released CD. CFS are playing this wednesday at Fitzrays as part of their indy showcase.

3. The Gizmos....21st Century Gizmo Fans...from their just released EP, the first new recordings in decades! The Gizmos pre-date the punk rock movement and released records back in the mid 70's.

4. 63 Monroe...Weekend Punx....from the Hijack Victim LP on Rave Up Records, which is some of their 80's recordings....local combo who play Call The Office on Saturday night.

5. The Britemores....Words In The Air....from their recent self titled CD. Detroit vets in a relatively new combo.

6. Daddy Long Legs.... Candy Sue...from the Evil Eye On You LP from 2012 on Norton Records. They come to town next friday, April 22nd at Call The Office, hope to see lots of you out at this show!

7. Daddy Long Legs...30 Days...as above.

8. catl....Save Myself....from their This Shakin' House LP. They will be playing with Daddy Long Legs on April 22nd!

9. Hiroshima Hearts...Ache..from their recent self titled debut CD. Local combo you've heard countless times here on Radio WW and now you gotta go see them open for catl and Daddy Long Legs on friday April 22nd at Call The Office!!

10. Sheep Look Up....Rapture...from their 1985 debut 12" EP. Sheep Look Up are a local band set to re-form for sunday's Jack Richardson Music Awards show here in London Ontario. They are being inducted into the London Music Hall Of Fame and deservedly so. They started as the Raw Dogs, then to Radio 4 and finally Sheep Look Up and evolved into an original powerhouse of a band that shoulda broken out big time.  Rumour has it, they wil be doing 6 songs on sunday, so this is your chance.

11. Spiral Scratch...No Familiar Faces...from their 1983 Zulu Syndrome LP and again from London Ontario.  Singer/guitarist Paul Wooten is organizing a walk of downtown London in which he will point out some of our old hangouts (or at least where they were), details on facebook.

12. Hot House....Burn It Down....from the 1978 Lp of the same name and another local combo. Hot House and the above 2 bands all played at my fave watering hole, The Cedar Lounge, many years ago.

13. The Zorgs...Black Molasses....from their recent Chew On It CD on Transistor 66 Records and out of Winnipeg.

14. Dynamite Pussy Club...Midnight Hour...from their about to be released Shakedown LP/cassette and from Bath UK.

15. Light Bulb Alley...Mary....brand new demo from this Montreal combo who have release one CD on Ricochet Sound.

16. Hip Bone Slim and The KneeTremblers....Hieroglyphic....from their brand new Ugly Mobile CD on Dirty Water Records out of the UK. Features veteran stick handler Bruce Brand of The Milkshakes infamy!

17. 3 O'Clock Train.... Train Of Dreams....from the Wig Wam Beach Ep from about 1985. 3OT has gotten back together and re-recorded this song along with others and just released them. Watch out for a cross Canada tour sometime in the not too distant.... They are from Montreal and played London a couple of times back in the mid 80's. The first time we saw them, they were double booked with Blood On The Saddle at Key West, and after a long discussion, they decided amongst themselves who would headline for the dozen or so people there.

18. Mars Bonfire....Born To Be Wild...from his self titled LP from 1968. Mars wrote this tune that became a HUGE hit for Steppenwolf. This is not the original version, Steppenwolf's is, this is a later recording by Mars and band and gives the song a southern swampy soul feel it.

19. Small Faces....Talk To You...from an Immediate Records Greatest Hits and from 1967. I'm really getting off on Small Faces lately and you'll probably be hearing lots more from them in future Radio WW's.

20. The Insomniacs...Today's The Way...from a recent single on Hidden Volume Records, Baltimore's coolest record label as so many great records have come out of this label recently.

21. Steve Miller Band....Living In The USA...from the Anthology LP and from 1968. After Steve's amazing post show interview at his induction into the Rock Hall Of Fame, we shoulda done an entire show on his early career! Finally someone with the gonads to tell it like it is! And can you imagine how much Steve Miller Band product has been sold in the last few days!! The man's a fucking genius!!

22. The Improbables.... Gotta Calm Down...recent single on Hidden Volume Records.

23. The Who....Out In The Steet...from the My Generation Lp from 1965.

24. Tom Jones...Evil....from a 7" on Third Man Records. This goes out to Tom's wife who passed away earlier this week.

Huge Thanx for all the phone calls this week! Lots and lots of encouraging words from all you crazies that listen each and every week!! And thanx for all the emails, facebook messages and Heys!!  You might see Rena and I at the Jacks on sunday as we've been nominated for an award in the Scenebuilding category, no idea how the winner is chosen, but hopefully the late John Bellone wins the award.

Next week, it's an all surf special as we bring in some of the members of The Thing From Outer Space into the studio to yammer and do who knows what! It's all in preparation for the big surf show happening saturday April 23rd at The Dawghouse here in London. Also on the bill are Toronto surf vets The Calrizians (they played here once before several years back) and the all female surf combo, The Surfrajettes! It's a free show, so come on out and have some fun!
