Amen to that'un. I used to listen to it to see if there were any "Fucking" noises on it...

The little know Nitzinger track (From '76 ?) "Are You With Me" is a good party song. Too Hard Rock for some , but oddball 70's Hard Rock is coming back.

Billy Brown - Did We Have a Party   Wanda Jackson - Man We Had a Party (One of a couple of sequels to the hit.)  ???- bOOZE pARTY (3 aCES AND a Joker?) Pre - snoresville Los Lobos "We're Gonna Rock"  ( TONIGHTWE'REGONNAPARTYYOUCANBETCHATILDAWN !)

"Pawty" section (Not saying I like 'em) -

KISS - I wanna Rock'n'Roll aw Ni - i - ight , un pawty evuh ree day (A misheard lyric in itself - a lot of people think it's "A part of everything" , which is a little too spiritual for the Greedmonsters.)

Triumph - (EVERYBODY PAWTY !) 24 Hours a Day.

Blue Cheer , and , later , Hollywood Stars - Make it to the Party (So , come on ! MAKE IT TO THE PAWTY !).... (Yes , I like THIS one.)

Buddy Knox , Joe "King" Carrasco - Party Doll - which sounds like an early mannequin / rubber whoopie doll lust song , like "Glendora" , and , later , "Billion Dollar Babies".

The Brood - PARTY CRASHIN'......

hARVEY sID fISHER - pARTY hARD (kind of disturbing.)

Go - Nuts   for getting your Snack on. (If you guys have Krispy Kreme , I'm jealous.).

Scotsmen , Untamed Youth - Beer Bust Blues

Nitecaps - Wine Wine Wine (WHAT'S THE WORD? HAVE YOU HEARD ? IT'S THUNDERBIRD !!!"

Gibson Bros - Nekkid Party.

Gentleman John Battles - Hard Stuff (It's new , I'll have to make you a copy - "Thunderbird , Ripple and Night Train ! I got Manischewitz on my brain ! Mad Dog 20/20 and Boone's Farm , a taste of IRISH rOSE WON'T DO YOU NO HARM , HARD STUFF ! YEAH , YEAH , YEAH , HARD STIFF !!).

oN A SOMBER NOTE , WE USED TO HAVE A TOTAL OF one GREAT SUBWAY PERFORMER IN cHICAGO...His name is , or was , The Big Doo Wopper . He made up all these insane Blues , NOLA , Soul and Gospel numbers , and sometimes did covers like , I think "A LITTLE bIT OF sOUL " BY tHE mUSIC eXPLOSION....hE JUST PLAYED ELECTRIC KEYBOARD AND SANG , but , his voice was very raspy , and he had no microphone. He was or is blind , and he had no valet , either , so , sometimes when he had a real gig , he'd get lost trying to get there , on his own , orthe church ladies who sometimes assisted him would make him wrap it up before he was finished.....He once played with Daniel Johnston , who froze in place after a half dozen songs. The Big Doo Wopper could have salvaged the show , but , his church lady ride showed up , and made him stop after about as many songs. Patrons paid $ 30 for the priveledge. But , he returned to the same venue , subbing for the recently deceased Wesley Willis , and tore it UP !    His wherabouts , or if he's even living, are a mystery.

Anyway , he had a great song "I'm goin' up the corner...get me some Richard's Wild Irish Rose ....Cause when I get into the Richard's.....IT MAKES THE BIG DOO WOPPER FEEL HIS NATURAL - BORN CHEERIOS !!!!!  Where we goin' ? We're going to Long John Silver's ! No we ain't ! We're going to Z- Frank Chevrolet !".....Beats Hell out of "My Girl" and all the Sam Cooke covers all the non - singers do in the train stations , now !

The Devil Dogs "Saturday Night Fever" LP has that party background noise going on... "Big Fuckin' Party!"

I know I've heard many others over the years, too, but that's the only one coming to my mind at the moment.

not a good song or anything, but I remember when my bro was a little kid he thought the MC Hammer song Can't Touch This was King Tuskis... Shitty song, but I think it's funny nonetheless.

I also thought " I Wanna Be Sedated" went  "I get it from my teachers , I get it from my friends, oh , no , oh , no oh ohhh", which said it all when I was in High School.

Now , when I hear it at the GROCERY STORE , I have to chuckle.

A friend of mine found some Hurriganes records in the late 70's. The record store clerk told him , "If you like those guys , I know a band you'd love....THE PIRATES.".

Hey , could I reprint that in Roctober ? You'd be credited , of course.

My godson used to sing the Misfits' Attitude as "Attitude You got some MONKEY attitude" I never though to correct her and now the song has a new meaning. 

I can't think of any that haven't been mentioned.  I'm kind of partial to the solo folk stuff. (crimes against music) & thee mighty caesers

Seen The Sloths twice both times their where bad ass!

Tom McLoughlin said:

Here's a bizarre but true story regarding this subject.  We just reformed THE SLOTHS at the end of this summer. All of us Sloth members we apart of the Hollywood Sunset Strip era of 1964 to 1966. No one knew that 'Makin' Love' the 45 the original group made in 1965 but was never released, had somehow been discovered and on the 'Back From The Grave 4' album. Nor did we know The Gories and other bands had covered it, or that an original single with sleeve had been sold for as high as $6550.00 on eBay.  We were all amazed. Ugly Things magazine just did a cover story on the group.  But the point is..all this led to us getting together again (in a garage, of course) and starting playing the songs exactly as we had 45 years ago. Some of us had not played, nor have I sang, in over 4 decades. But it was as if no time had passed. Now we're being booked in clubs and venues. The most surreal thing is we were all around 16yrs old back in the day. Now we're in our 60s playing the music of the 60s with more energy and passion than when we were teens. Too Old To Rock? Not yet, thank God.

I wasn't able to figure out how to find yer playlist on spotify.  My recommendation tho is Nathaniel Mayer, White Dress.

Love Spotify! I'll try to look it up & add :)

I spend far too much time making playlists on spotify. I think I have some really good ones too....

This is perhaps the best- 100 tracks from 5 or maybe 6 different decades!

Garage rock

I have two profiles(so i can listen to more songs!)

Please add me to your spotify guys!

 I was in The Boys from Nowhere- named after a ripping DMZ song!  Later monoman "stole" our drummer Johnny Bernardo...RIP Johnny.  The Customs are "Lyre like" as mentioned, also there is a band here in Cincinnati now called the Long Gones who are great fun.

The Cynics

I don't usually like live albums, but this one really is the shit.

kopper said:

That live Lyres album on Crypt is a must-have, too.

Alexander said:

Yes,"The way...." is a great song-I like most the cd"the early years79-83"(Crypt records),because it has this raw garage sound.I saw them once in Berlin in the 80`s-it was amazing-LYRES rule!!!But DMZ are also VERY VERY good.
