Radio What Wave Playlist August 30/2019

25. Deja Voodoo….16 Tons…..from their debut longplayer on their OG Records. Two piece, 4 string guitar, drums with no cymbals and the inventors of their self titled sludgeabilly genre. This duo crossed Canada many a time via Greyhound bus, after the Edsel packed it in. And coincidentally, singer/guitar played Gerard, announced his retirement right around the time this song was playing onair….
26. Cleo Page….California Prison Farm….from a compilation called Going To California on the JSP label. Not a lot known about this elusive artist, but all of his records are on my want list if anyone can help out.

1. The Rizdales….. Honky Tonky Honeymoon….from the Lucky Enough release and they are playing the matinee at the Richmond today.

4. DOA….Rip This Joint…from the 1978 release on Sudden Death Records.

25. The Secrets….All The Words…from the Teenage Rampage release on OPM Records. Toronto combo formed in 1978 as members of The Viletones deserted the singer and formed a brand new combo with the addition of a Diode. Great fratrock combo that should have gone on to big things.

31. Eddie and the Hot Rods….Get Out Of Denver…. As above.

34. Flying Squad….Brian Mulroney…..demo and their appreciation for former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, who, like a really bad smell, just won’t go away.
35. Fine Print….Tonight…from their self titled release and from London. One of those bands that wasn’t around anywhere near long enough.

19. Chris Houston…..Mean To Me….from the recent Hazrds Of Glitter release and this features Lori Yates on vocals with Chris.
20. Jerry Jerry and the Sons of Rhythm Orchestra…..How Can People Be So Wrong….from his Don’t Mind If I Do release. JJ and company played London many times, always drinking way more than any other band and always putting on a great show!
21. Light Bulb Alley…..Problems….from their most recent release and from Montreal.
22. Larry Wallis….Police Car….from a 1977 Stiff 7” and the flipside is On Parole….
23. Larry Wallis….Leather Forever…..from a 7” on a French label and found this when digging for Police Car.
24. The Touch….Stop Stop….from the recent Lost and Found release. The Touch were a UK mod band that formed in the late 70’s, released an album and disappeared. Magically re-appeared about a year ago, started work on this release and have a reunion show happening later this month in the UK.
25. Dr Feelgood….She Does It Right….from the Down At The Jetty release from 1974. Features the phenomenal Wilko Johnson on guitar! Wilko has his own unique style; no pick, all fingers simultaneously slashing the lead and rhythm sounds out of his Telecaster.
26. Count Bishops….I Take What I Want….from The Bishops release from 1979.
27. Boy From Nowhere…..Lift Up Your Hood…..live recording from the long gone Brunswick Hotel.
28. Etta James….Good Rockin’ Tonight….from a Greatest  Hits compilation and originally from 1956.
29. The Mods….Step Out Tonight….from the Twenty 2 Months release on OPM Records. 1978 recording from this Toronto combo and a song that used to go through my noggin’ before heading out to the clubs.
30. The Jam…..In The Crowd…from the All Mod Cons release and the first Jam album I bought. Saw them right after this in Toronto!
31. The Scenics….Great Piles Of Leaves….from the In The Summer release of 1977/78 recordings of this Toronto trio who played London several times in the Cedar Lounge days. Several years later, Andy (guitar/bass/vocals) opened up a record store here in town, and if memory serves correct, it was at the south east corner of Queens and Clarence.

Thanx to all who tuned in, phoned in, emailed in, messaged in, and dropped by the studio to say Hey!!!!

Radio What Wave Playlist July 26/2019

1. The Underground Divas….This Train Is Running Out Of Faith…From Montreal and certainly have their ear on the ground as to what’s happening in this crazy world we all live in.
2. DOA….Woke Up Screaming….from the recent 1978 release and originally came out in 1978 as a 7”.
3. Sheep Look Up….Civil Disobedience….from Slippery’s Club Hits, the cassette that came with What Wave zine 24. Originally released as a cassette circa 1983 and blows my mind as much then as now.
4. The Zellots….Soldiers…..also from Slippery’s Club Hits and originally recorded back in about 1981 at EMAC.
5. 63 Monroe…..Drums Beat in the Background….from the recent Faded Glory release. London’s longest running glam/punk/whatever combo and they still play out every now and again.
6. The Rizdales….One More Beer….from their most recent, Lucky Enough release and regulars at the Richmond Tavern here in London.
7. Dashboard Rattle….Little Miss Selfie Taker….from their recent self titled debut and also from London Ontario.
8. Genya Ravan….Don’t Go Into The Bathroom….from her recent Icon release and a true story if you ever tried to go to the washroom when at CBGBs. Genya’s been around since the early 60’s and one of her claims to fame is producing the first Dead Boys album.
9. Hiroshima Hearts….Wreckage….their latest and they have a gig coming up next weekend at the Ribfest here in London.

15. Bill Haley and the Comets…..13 Women….this goes out to Dick Boccelli, aka Dick Richards, the drummer for Bill from about 1953 to 1955. Dick passed away very recently at the ripe old age of 95 and probably the last of the Comets from that era. And 13 Women is also my fave Bill Haley track, check out the absolute Killer version of this track by Sweden’s  Renegades from 1966!
16. LeRoi Brothers…..Ballad Of A Juvenile Delinquent….from their 1983 Check This Action release. Had to toss this one in after Bill Haley as his fans were considered JD’s back in the band’s early days.
17. Positively Stompin’….Ain’t I’m A Dog…..from the Cat O Nine Tales cassette that came with What Wave zine 21 from 1992. The boys in Stompin’ found this track on the above LeRoi Brothers release and loved it so much they had to record it.
18. LeRoi Brothers….Check This Action….from the album of the same name and a song that sums up being a LeRoi.
19. David Clayton Thomas…..Brainwashed….Came out as a single back in 1966 and features Freddy Keeler on guitar. Freddy passed away recently and was one of a few shit hot guitar players out of Toronto! A master of the telecaster!
20. David Clayton Thomas….Boom Boom…this version is from DCT’s solo LP, and not the earlier recorded version which features an even better guitar solo by Freddy. DCT calls out Freddy to take the solo on the version we played.

22. Artwoods….Can You Hear Me….from the Art Gallery release on Repertoire Records and originally from 1966. This track features a young Jon Lord on keys, eventually to find fame in Deep Purple. Art Woods,  from whom this band takes its name is the brother of Faces/Birds/Stones guitarist Ron Wood.
23. The Touch….You’re The One….from the brand new Lost and Found release. The Touch were a late 70’s/early 80’s UK mod/pop combo who released one album back then and ended up breaking up. Due to its rarity, the band decided to get back together and this recording is a result of that. Reunion show coming up in August!
24. The Touch….Grey Day…..as above.
25. The Meters….Ease Back…..from a Greatest Hits comp and goes out to keyboardist Art Neville who passed away earlier this week. Art started his career in the 50’s and remained a New Orleans resident up to the end.

30. The Fleshtones….5 New Fleshtones…..from the Angry Years release.
31. The Fleshtones….Girl From Baltimore….from the Up Front release from 1980. The Fleshtones have been around since 1976, with 2 original members, drummer Bill joined shortly after the band formed and bassist Ken Fox has been with the band close to 30 years. And they’ve still got more energy than pretty much any band out there! My fave live band!
32. The Fleshtones….Watch This….from the Angry Years release.
33. The Fleshtones…..The Dreg….from the Roman Gods release.
34. The Fleshtones….I’ve Gotta Change My Life….as above and had to fade this as we ran outta time.

Dave , well , focus on your health , hoss. You gotta lotta rockin' to do. Yes , it was very busy , here , until.....NOW. I don't have plans to see anybody , tho' Stiff Little Fingers and The Avengers are in October. I failed to mention , I saw The Mentally Ill in a cool dive bar. Rediscovered Power Pop zealot , Julian Leal was on the bill , too , but , I had to haul ass out of there to try to make it to Daddy Longlegs' show , just up the street. I missed them , but , we went out for Mexican food , anyway.

Horton's doing two shows , but one is in the suburbs , inaccessible by train. Th eothe rone is later , He's playing at The City Winery , a place with dinner seating.  Perfect for stretching your neck to see the back of your neighbors' head. But , when he played there last , with Robert Gordon (Who did "Heart Full of Soul"and "Move it" by , guys......CLIFF !!!),they took thetables and chairs out .. We can hope.

Hey John:  Still here, just haven't been very active on this board recently due to health and my Mother passing last month. Haven't been out to a show for awhile and hope to be better in the near future to get out again....but certainly can't top the combos you've been seeing lately John!

Dave , are you there? I recently saw The Flesheaters (Chris D. w/ John Doe , Bill Bateman , Dave Alvin , D.J Fontana , Steve Berlin.) , X with The Damned , Southern Culture on The Skids , Mott The Hoople '74 , Danny Harvey and Head Cat 13 , and , several months ago , Roky Erickson's last - ever Chicago appearance  )`;  

i went to The Nashville Boogie , Highlights included Ronnie Spector , The Planet Rockers , Linda Gail Lewis (With ALL of Los Straitjackets plus Danny Harvey !),Nikki Hill (Tho' I missed most of her set.), Deke Dickerson (With J.M.Van Eaton on Drums !) , and two sets by your own Bloodshot Bill , one featuring Deke , The Stomping Riff Raffs from Japan and a full rhythm section. He also did a shorter set with a guest appearance by Bloodshot Battles Overdrive ( Bloodshot Bill and myself.).
