"Go Back" by Crabby Appleton, from their self-titled first LP. Soon as I found the 45, the LP went out the door.

"Indian Reservation" by the Raiders - the only good moment on the Indian Reservation album.

"Your Love Is Like Nuclear Waste" by Tuff Darts, from their Tuff Darts! album on Sire. Third-tier band from the 70s NYC punk scene.

"Ooh La La" by the Faces is the sole highlight of their Ooh La La elpee.

Not quite what you were asking - but Thick as a Brick by Jethro Tull which came out in 1972 contains only one song.

I bought a second hand copy some years later - simply for its interest as a one track LP.

I don't happen to like Jethro Tull. So I own an LP which has not only one song on it, but a song I don't like.

Motorhead - "Stand" from "March or Die". I traded my copy in as soon as I played it once or twice. But , recently , I found a cassette and burned that one track on to a CD.

I'm doing some fine tuning to my CD collection, and I noticed that I have several CDs with only one song each that I like. Here's my list of those songs....

"Teenage News" from the first Syl Sylvain album - Great opening track, rest of the album didn't do anything for me.

"Another Girl, Another Planet" from "Special View" by the Only Ones - Again, great opening track, rest of the CD didn't do anything for me.

"Teenage Kicks" from the first Undertones' album - Awesome pop tune, but nothing else on the CD really hooked me.

"Roadrunner" from the first Modern Lovers' album - Again, another great tune, but the rest of the CD didn't do anything for me.

"Who Will Save Rock'n'Roll" from DFFD by the Dictators - This was their first new CD in 23 years, and it was released in 2001. Great opening track, not much else on it that I liked.

"Maria Bartiromo" from "Don't Worry About Me" by Joey Ramone - Yes, I know this is Joey we're talking about, but again it's same old problem; one really, really, really great tune, but the rest of the CD didn't do anything for me. Keep in mind that I feel the same way about the splintered Beatles, i.e. they each had their moments as solo artists, but even at their individual best, those moments still paled in comparison with their work as a band.

Anyway, I'm just wondering who else here has an album/CD, or several albums/CDs, with only one song that they like. I know we've all been there, buying an album/CD because we heard a great song from it, and then finding out the rest of it to be underwhelming.

I think I need to check into the Betty Ford Clinic. I obviously have a problem!

If you can find one (it shouldn't be too hard) get a Fender '63 reissue Brown Vibroverb.  It's a very nice 2x10 40 watt combo with a kick ass tube bias tremolo plus reverb.  You can usually find them at a reasonable price.

I find you can never go wrong with a solid, good old Peavey Bandit.

I went last weekend with a group of 12 people, most of whom were musician's & a few who either own or have worked in guitar stores. The gear was pretty authentic. The only question was that one of the Tube Fender Bass amps looked possibly to be a 70's era more powerful amp than was available in the 60's. I enjoyed the movie. Especially having grown up on the east coast in an Italian Family, I felt at times as if I was watching my own life onscreen.Since I work in the film business, someone gave me an advance copy of the soundtrack. It's on vinyl! & it's a 2 record set. I've not had a chance to listen to it all, but so far no complaints.

Don't forget Barreiro Rocks in Portugal.

Ty Segall first show in Europe was in that festival, but lots of great bands already play here like Billy Childish, King Khan, Black Lips, Los Chicos, Pierced Arrows, Jack Oblivian, and lots more...

I didn't get into punk and new wave until '82 when I started jr. high school (or middle school as it's called now). As a kid that would get bored with "normal" and "mainstream" music, I was always on the lookout for different and unusual bands. Living in a culturally behind-the-times city like Roanoke (VA), finding anything cool was almost next to impossible. Only by catching "Video Jukebox" on HBO did I come across anything that came close, such as Devo, the Cars, the Police, etc. Sure, KISS were mega, but even by '82 they were considered passe, and NOBODY even really knew who the Ramones were (unless they did see "Rock 'N' Roll High School"). So it was '82 that I got my first exposure to punk culture, thanks to the rich kids, who were in tune to especially the British scene and what was going on in Southern California. These kids would wear pins, t-shirts, have cassettes that they would order from Thrasher Mag, and that's where I picked up on it all. I made mental notes on the bands they were into, and just started devouring everything I could at a local second-hand record shop. My first few purchases were Devo's "New Traditionalists", Black Flag's "Damaged" LP, the B-52's ("Wild Planet"), the Clash ("Combat Rock"), and Dead Kennedys ("Plastic Surgery Disasters"). I would pick up copies of Rolling Stone, Thrasher, and eventually Maximum Rock 'N' Roll, just to read about anybody and everybody that was making underground noise. I had one friend who would make me killer mix tapes of all the hardcore vinyl that he would special order, and by this time we had two record shops that was starting to cater to the growing punk scene here. It got a lot easier buying SST releases and Circle Jerks t-shirts for example. Plus, I was ordering tapes from the ROIR catalogues, and it pretty much didn't matter what I got from there, because I dug it all (Fleshtones, Scientific Americans, Germs, etc.) By this time, you'd be able to go to the mall's music shop and pick up the Sex Pistols' "Never Mind the Bollocks" or everything the Clash had ever put out, along with Elvis Costello, Killing Joke, etc. Mary Huff from Southern Culture On the Skids (who is from here) started honing her musical chops while playing in a local punk band that actually recorded a local commercial for a record shop back in '84. So, for me, I guess I jumped in head first...

Living in Bromley in the '70s it was a scene that just developed and while many of my friends went the heavy route rock, I and my closest friends connected with the anger, frustration and civil disturbances that were happening across the UK and music became a way of expressing that frustration and anger.

They were doing benefit shows to keep this place open and it just did not pan out.  These places are like moles though.....one will pop up again somewhere soon when a person(s) get motivated to do it.  Harder to do it now with the more hard ass insurance, fire, health codes you are to adhere to.  If I had a million $ I would do it.

Yeah, there's a place like that in every town, if you're lucky. 

It is great to have a venue (other than a bar or large "concert" venue) that hosts "underground" punk shows. Those places always have a hard time staying open (due to lack of money) and are usually kind of cruddy in atmosphere (due to lack of money). 

I grew up near Flint, and there has always been a decent scene for that type of thing there. It has changed names over the years, but the venue has been called Flint Local 432. It is a great all-ages venue downtown that is quite large and has hosted many local and touring bands over the years. 

My band happens to be playing there again (for the first time in a long time) this coming weekend and we are really looking forward to getting "back to our roots".

By the way, this is KK Dirty Money, same guy as in the previous posts. I just happen to be replying to this via my other band's GPHO account. So, Ungodly 77s and KK Dirty Money are the same guy, just different bands, FYI...

Yes it is.....and did not get dirtied up by becoming too popular.....wish it was just a little more popular just enough to get some other bands to stop by and a little better PA....and the plumbing in the bathrooms always sucked....hahaha.

At least I purchased this piece of hell yesterday ! Seriously that's a monster with punch and power ! A real beast easy to play and for me very good looking.

Yes, The Elevators, Five Americans , Mouse and The Traps (As The Positively 13 O'Clock) , The Chocolate Watchband (As The Hogs) , The New Breed and many others were on HBR , AT LEAST FOR A SINGLE (The mighty , mighty 5 Americans , a whole album.) , AT THE SAME TIME , THE LABEL RELEASED SOME GREAT KIDS' RECORDS WITH THEIR STABLE OF CARTOON CHARACTERS AND USUALLY UNIDENTIFIED STUDIO ROCK BANDS , Tho' Danny Hutton Of The Enemies and Three Dog Night had a hit with "Monster Shindig" from the SNOOPS AND BLABBERMOUSE (With The Gruesome Family of "She said yeah , yeah , yeah" fame , from Bedrock.)album of the same name.

I knew I could count on you for a great, thorough response, John! I always wondered how Hanna-Babera were so tied into the music community...Vince Taylor, yowza!!! I found out also that they had a record label, HBR, which released the "You're Gonna Miss Me Single" in 1966. Doesn't get much cooler than that.  

I had no idea Lux appeared on Spongebob...thanks for sharing! Those Ramones videos are well done, too.

These are great! Keep 'em coming!!
