Radio What Wave Playlist November 6/2014

First off, Huge Thanx to everyone that came out to our monthly Rock'n'Roll Rent Party last sunday!! Not only did The Mongrels meet the challenge from the Boy From Nowhere to meet or beat their $50 pledge to CHRW, but the crowd at the event put in another $100!!!! Yep, a grand total of $150 for CHRW!! Thanx to all!

And on tonite's show, we've got a couple of special guests, we've got FenyxFyre and Tyler Stewart. FenyxFyre is a sideshow freak artist....meaning he can breathe fire, swallow swords, eat glass, stick foreign objects into his body and do tricks with chainsaws among other feats. In other words, this guy is the real deal as he's recently appeared on AMC Freakshow!!! And he is going to be appearing at an event that Tyler Stewart is promoting at Gordy's Brewhouse.

1. King Tuff....Beautiful Thing....from the Black Moon Spell CD that just came out. This CD has been stuck in my car CD player for about a week and it's quickly becoming one of my faves.

2. Giggleswitch....How Good You Look....from their VII CD. Liam, who played bass in Giggleswitch, is now in Cross The Streams, which is playing at the freak show.

3. Giggleswitch....Polythylene...as above.

4. King Tuff.....Black Holes In Stereo...from the Black Moon Spell CD.

5. catl....FU Blues....from This Shakin' House LP. catl are playing at the Black Shire Pub tonite. They rock!!

6. catl...Shakin' House Blues....as above.

7. catl....Get Outta The Car....from the This Soon Will All Be Gone LP. Originally recorded by Hasil Adkins, catl quite often play this song live and dedicate it to a DJ from this radio station.

8. Frankie And Jimmy....Hard Time Killing Floor Blues....from the Scream The Blues LP. Frankie and Jimmy are opening for catl tonite at Black Shire Pub.

9. Wilko Johnson....Keep It To Myself...from the Going Back Home CD. WIlko was diagnosed with terminal cancer and wasn't expected to live for long. He beat the cancer and is now clean!!!! Congrats to Wilko!!!! Maybe, just maybe rock'n'roll is the cure for cancer!!!

10. Cream....Dance The Night Away....from Disreali Gears LP. This goes out to Jack Bruce who passed away about a week ago. Cream were my absolute fave band back in 1968/69 and introduced me to the blues at a really young age! And this particular LP, I've owned since about 1970 and used to play the shit out of it!

11. Cream....Those Were The Days....from the Wheels Of Fire LP. Another LP I've owned since the early 70's.

12. Terminals....Spiderman....from the We Killed cassette and goes out to regular listener Dan.

Huge Thanx to FenyxFyre for coming on air, putting scissors up his nostils and for eating the light bulb. There's video on the Radio WW page on facebook.

Big thanx for all the phone calls, emails, facebook messages and Heys!! Back again next week, looks like a tribute to original Demic Rob Brent who passed away last night. In the process of lining up some guests for next week's show.

Radio What Wave Playlist Oct 23/2014....The Knights Of Fuzz Meanwhile In Canada (non 7" songs)

For this part of our never ending  The Knights Of Fuzz, we explore Canadian garage punk from about 1980 onwards, and only from compilations, demo tapes, live recordings, and album tracks. That means no 7" records this time....all the previous shows were 7" only.

1. The Gruesomes....What Wave....from Mr Garager's Neighbourhood. This is a compilation LP we compiled and was released on OG Records back in 1989. At the time, we had no idea The Gruesomes would be recording this song for the compilation, a really nice surprise!

2. The Gruesomes....Unchain My Heart....recorded live at Key West Cafe, London Ontario 1/11/87. This was The Gruesomes very first time here in London and was on a sunday night, so we weren't expecting any kind of crowd. Instead, we got a packed house of cheering and jeering drunks that had a blast! As did The Gruesomes. Next day, we hit the record and comic book stores of London for the first of The Gruesomes many visits here.

3. UIC....Jumpin' In The Night....live recording from 4/17/87 and the cassette tape jammed up about 30 seconds into the song....yep, this show was going to be a fun one as i screwed up many times. And it wouldn't be a Radio What Wave without some fuckups!

4. El Speedo....Hot Rod Rally....from their self titled cassette, thanx to drummer Marky Toad for getting this to me! Some UIC members and Purple Toad members get together to crank out some rock'n'roll!

5. The Chickens....Summer Of Love....from the Prepare To Plug In CD. 4 of the former member of UIC get together with Ken Chicken to create some absolute killer pop'n'roll!! This is from 2000 and they released one more CD before packing it in. Runners up in the Little Steven's contest to find the coolest garage band a number of years back. And one of the few bands that i would dance my ass off to in this time period. And one time, the guy dancing beside me turned out to be Pete Moss from Drums Along The Gardiner and we hadn't seen each other in years!

6. Purple Toads...Gonna Have A Good Time...from their first LP on Star Records, mid 1980's. Oshawa combo that released 2 LP's and shoulda gone on to bigger things.

7. The Mongrels...Do It....from their Radio WW Session 2013. London Ontario combo who play the first sunday of every month at APK. It's called the Rock'n'Roll Rent Party, and if you haven't checked it out, you should.

8. The Stance....Impossible Baby....from their Shall Inherit The Earth CD. Halifax combo from 2006. They released a follow up LP, that moved in a more mid 60's Brit soul meets R&B styling. Really good live combo that we got to see a coupla times live here in London Ontario.

9. The Boy From Nowhere...Teenage Head....1986 demo from this London Ontario based combo, not to be confused with The Boys From Nowhere from Columbus Ohio. This was a pure covers combo that played songs by; 13th Floor Elevators, Kinks, DMZ, Elvis, Standells, Dictators, Yardbirds and mixed in some blues. The Boy From Nowhere will be playing SUnday Nov 2nd, 3PM at APK for our Rock'n'Roll Rent Party.

10. The Boy From Nowhere....Heartful Of Soul....from the compilation LP, Thee Cave Comes Alive, on Action Records from Greece 2004. This is a compilation of songs from the cassettes that came with What Wave zine back in the 80's and 90's. George Rigas picked some of the best 60's garage oriented songs and made an LP on Action Records. This was the impetus to get me back into music after several years of raising kids, renovating a house, night school and loads of other stuff.

11. Legend Killers...Cry Cry Cry....from the above Thee Cave Comes Alive. Another London Ontario combo, The Legend Killers are the only band to appear on every vinyl and cassette and CD compilation released by What Wave!! There's gotta be 12 or more cassettes and at least 3 vinyl comps, as well as one CD comp. Collect the whole series.

12. Fine Print....Remember....from a 2011 cassette release for Record Store Day. Yet another fine band from London Ontario and these guys released one CD, as well as this limited edition cassette on WW.

13. Frankenstein 5.....Go Away....from their Can You Dig It cassette. 1994 release from this London Ontario based gang of outcasts and criminals. Dedicated to guitarist Rob Munro who passed away earlier this year.

14. The Midways....Find Another Girl....from their Pay More And Get A Good Seat CD. Toronto combo from the early 2000's who also released one other CD/LP. Big in Europe, but ignored in their home land as is the case with most really cool garagepunk combos!

15. Raving Mojos....Yeah Yeah Uh Huh....1981 recording. Toronto based combo who were playing rock'n'roll when hardcore was the hipsters choice. There's some raging rock'n'roll on this recording and features a future Fleshtone in a young bass player by the name of Ken Fox.

16. The Secrets...I'll Cry Tomorrow....from their Teenage Rampage CD from 1997. This is a recording from 1979. Another out of time combo, this one playing frat rock'n'roll when 70's punk was reigning.  Critics loved the band but that doesn't sell records or get crowds out.

17. The Enigmas....Windshield Wiper....from the Strangely Wild EP. Vancouver based and released at least one other 12" EP and members went on to The Fiends and The Worst amongst others.

18. The Living Deadbeats....Lost....from their one and only LP from 2012. Vancouver combo that features a former Fiend in Pete, who coincidentally comes from London Ontario. Sadly, they just broke up, but at least they did come to London Ontario to play a coupla times!

19. The Hypnotics....Radio City....from their Static Fuzz Radio LP from 2011.  Windsor Ontario trio that features the Konstantino brothers, of which David hosts our sister radio show, Revolution Rock on CJAM out of Windsor Ontario, Saturday nights from 7 till 9PM. Great band and a great radio show!!

20. The Minstrels....Rhythm In Her Head....from the Come Out To Play EP from 1989. Another What Wave release, this time from the Quebec City trio who went on to live in many cities over their career. This is some really fine beat based power pop made for dancing!

21. The Chains....Soulin'....from the On Top Of Things CD on Get Hip Records. 2002 release from this Montreal based combo that Timothy Gassen deservedly gives really high marks to in The Knights Of Fuzz book!

22. Light Bulb Alley....Pepper Spray...from The Sound Of Things CD on Ricochet Sound from 2011. Montreal based trio that have gone through several member changes since this release and are about to release another CD in the near future.

23. Sunday Sinners....So Lonely....from the Sweet Jam CD released a few years back. Yet another Montreal based combo that we saw back at Wooly Weekend back in 2009.

24. Gerry Alvarez....Urban Shamen...from the Candy Prankster CD on Ricochet Sound.  Former Gruesome Gerry is back and he's released 2 solo CD's so far with this being his first from 2006. Quite a bit different from The Gruesomes as Gerry mines mid to late 60's Brit pop and psyche and gives it a bit of a modern feel....had to cut this short as we ran out of time.

Thanx for all the phone calls, emails, facebook messages and Heys!! Back again next week as we're into fund raising at CHRW next week. Be sure to call 519 661-3600 and pledge your support for CHRW.

Hmmmm....I have'nt studied it enough to give you an informed answer , really , except that I know the group , Prussian Blue , is very big , and they're far more  Pop - oriented. I only heard a bit of them in a documentary.

It's sort of odd that there's White Supremacist Rockabilly , as Rockabilly was born out of a love by Southern White (mostly) males for Black culture. It was about being an individual , not part of a herd , and that was like wearing a big sign that read "BEAT MY ASS !!".

I left Dallas before the (neo - Nazi) skinheads more or less dispersed , or got into other things . I hear that some of them got into Rockabilly , much later , because it was White and Southern. Some of the ex - Punk Rockabilly guys  in Dallas were pretty racist , too , but , I think most people saw the blatant contradiction.

But , Rockabilly music was always , pretty much , apolitical , neither left nor right - leaning.     I don't think there were any blatantly racist 'billy bands in Dallas in the late 80's and 90's , but , I was'nt around. I knew several of the musicians , none of them seemed that way to me. Just songs about cars and girls . A wella wella wella , uh baby , baby  baby.....

Chris , Well , I've been reading  , and seeing on TV , about this new trend toward trying to make the movement more accessible to more sheeple (As Thorazine called 'em.). But , you have a point , and I did'nt mean to discount it.   It could , on the surface , be percieved as funny odd and funny ha - ha to actually hear some of this seemingly contradictory genre splicing , 

I know there is white power folk, country and western, rockabilly, punk and heavy metal, but what is the most unlikely you have come across?

Chris , I read most of the article...To be honest , it did'nt shock or amuse me. Hate music has been crossing over into more genres than Xian Rock (Not making a direct comparison between the two.) .

I think White Power Synth Pop or Indie Rock would be like a double decker shit sandwich. Two kinds of shit , all they need , now ,  is bread .

I read the article and found it confusing that hate music is crossing into genres that were terra incognita a few years ago. Confusing because I noticed that there were genres that would be anathema, but it shows how hypocritical they are, I guess.

I love Hipster Hitler, but could it get any stranger than this, or more comical (unless you believe reality has eclipsed satire)?

What would White Power synth pop or indie rock sound like?

Paisley Terror , It seems like the availability of venues to play live music has been getting shifted around in the Bay Area. I may be mistaken , but , whenever I'm down there , it seems like a few places have closed and maybe some new ones have turned up. Do you ever try San Jose ? I've only been to San Francisco , Berkely and Oakland in the past 15 years or so....It seems like San Jose is picking up , but , as a "One Man Band" (Though I don't call myself that...) , I understand , if you do your own thing , it's harder to find an audience. But , they're out there. You may want to start with house parties , or even busking on the street , if you can.

I'm a one woman band.  I've been doing the guitar and kick drums thing in the Bay Area for four years now.  Haven't had a lot of luck finding places to play, though.  So I'm kind of an enigma.

As I noted earlier , Phil May from The Pretty Things has been hospitalized with severe breathing difficulty. He's been diagnosed with COPD , a serious disease of the lungs. 

Mike Stax , at Ugly Things , has stated that he believes a recovery is very possible , but ,  what Phil needs , now , is words of encouragement from his fans. REAL words , on paper , as Phil is not a computer person. Stax especially asks anyone who's kicked the bottle or drugs or cigarettes to share their experiences with May , as he needs to be reminded that he's better and BADDER than any of those things. I'm not , and Mike is'nt , implying that Phil has issues with all three.

Pretty Things fans , and God knows there must be MANY on The Hideout , are implored to write to Phil May and tell him what his music has meant to you , and that his work is not over , that , in Mike's words , he needs to turn himself back over to art and music.

Letters will be sent , sealed , to May's home in London.
