I used to spin "Aba-Daba Do Dance" on my old radio show all the time, but I never knew when it was recorded. It totally sounds like a '60s recording, but I'm pretty sure it was newer... right? Were they a '90s band?

Aside from that single, I know nothing about T. Lance & the Coctails. Did they record anything else?

In Brooklyn/NYC, Graveyard Lovers, Coach N Commando, and The Othermen are excellent.

This is just sublime. Outwith Liz Fraser, Lisa Gerrard has the most beautiful voice and technique i've ever heard and had the pleasure to see. The way her voice cracks near the end is amazing. Beautiful

Haha Sleazy! Looks like you wanna piece your personal "Pirelli Calendar " together! ;)

Here my choose :

We haven't yet played out of town but from my experiences thus far (and they are definitely somewhat limited), is that we definitely like to play earlier in the lineup (second seems to be the sweet spot in a four-band lineup), especially if it's not a Friday or Saturday - that way people will have already gone in to see the other bands but it's still early enough before people start to leave. Obviously, weekends don't pose this kind of a problem near as much, but as a newish band, we have been playing a decent amount of weeknight/Sundays and going later has proven difficult to keep people around in many regards.

Thought i'd throw this in the mix. My fave Who song very much brought to life. Very early performance on an amazing Brit 60's tv show 'Ready Steady Go' Everyone who was anyone played this show first. Check out the early Animals performances as well. The Yardbirds did an amazing version of 'A Certain Girl' on there as well. Check it out. Roger and co may have their critics. Apart from the early 80's pop guff, The Who abide on many plains.

Thee 'OO!! Probably third place in the 'Holy Trinity' of the British Invasion by most enthusiasts but they are my favorite! Yes, I am an American, a total U.S. 'Garage-in-the-mid-sixties' freak and a die-hard Who fan!! Arguably the first Punk band in Rock and Roll history as well as having one member blow away the song writing skills of Lennon/Macartney (spelling?) and Jagger/Richards in a single bound (starting with The Who Sells Out). I love the whole sordid story of these boys, the four opposite personalities, the fights onstage and the love that would come later. The music of the Who is by far the most timeless out of the other two bands mentioned above and I expect time will prove that out (in time). Way too much for me to say about these lads so just let me get on the board here; I am one of the Who-Heads!

Despite hearing the song a hundred thousand times, I still max the volume for My Generation every time I catch it on the radio.  I also need a regular dose of Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere (including the Live Five version which I just clicked on to complete this post).  

The early stuff is just downright incredible (all their stuff is but in regards to punk).  But obviously their talent was too big to just stay in the lo-fi garage standard.  Amazing to think Tommy was their 4th studio album, they had evolved that much, that quickly.  By 1967 they had horns in their tracks (Pictures of Lily).  After all, Entwistle was a french horn player I have read.

Obviously, for the overall world of Rock-n-Roll we should be pleased they developed the way they did.  But I wish they had put out another album or two before they went so rock opera so I had a few more raw songs.  Probably timing, maybe if they came out just a year or two earlier things would have moved differently.  To me, their best return to the veracity of the early stuff was their cover of "Summertime Blues".  

Hmmmm, I seem to recall several conversations regarding The 'OO and garage... Are the Who so incredibly tied to STADIUM RAWK now that they're not worth discussing re garage? I just can't believe it's true! Did the '70's block our Who-dar in the Hideout?

Too commercial to discuss? I'm interested in hearing about who have been influenced by the Who musically, personally, whatever. Me? I can't think of garagepunk without thinking about a certain 'attitude' -- and a sound that ingested early R&B, blues, then spit it back out in a new form. The Who had that basement, raw, obnoxious sound.

Could there be any more opinionated, snot-nosed, punks than Townsend in his prime? Could anyone mess up their kit better than Moon? There'd be no '70's punk without 'em. And certainly no Jam (well, duh).

Who are the Who-Heads? :D

Thought i'd throw the Kennedys in there. No idea who Abby is? But she got some good advice, haha

Oh, and forgot to add these two legends

Holly Golightly & Micky (Milkshake) Hampshire aka Hipbone Slim.

But there are a ton of great 'duets' and probably some better examples of her style out there that Holly has done with of course Billy Childish, Dan Melchoir, in the Brokeoffs, etc etc etc etc etc....

Now for the 70's/80's.....

There is Lemmy & Kelly Johnson singing Johnny Kid's song as Motorheadschool or Headgirl (I think it )

The Rezillos - 

Debbie Harry doing backing vocals for the Ramones

Mark lanegan and isobel Campbell. Two voices that were made for each other. Saw him in Aberdeen last month and he was just awesome. Enjoy!

Beautiful. I have two albums by Gry. Not sure if she's released more. Nancy and Lee's version is the ultimate, but this is an amazing version of Summer Wine. I wish some of my friends were as understanding. They just think ahm weird for liking this kinda stuff, haha

Andy, fantastic! We got the LINKAGE at the end!!
Hear to this version of Summer Wine sung by Gray, FM and Alexander Hacke:

I've got an extra promo copy of The Chesterfield Kings' Live Onstage ... If You Want It. Comes with a DVD of the performance.

I'll send it to the first one who sends me his or her street address.

 

Yep! they're still lookin for the mold mate, so they can break it. Good luck wi that search. I think it's still in Ivy's closet

Oh, I got ya. You reminded of a funny story , regarding Lux Interior. Actually , I have some good ones of my own , and some that other people told me. They don't make 'em like him , and they never did , either.

You've just added about 10 more names to my list... gee thanks,   ; )

Of course , the late Ronnie Dawson NEVER failed , and the late Janis Martin kicked major ass. Great lady.

John Battles said:

Yeah , that's the deal . When I go to these Rockabilly fests (I only went to the first Viva Las Vegas , but , the next one actually looks good.) , I catch a few new acts on the flip flop , but go see the older cats , out of respect....The best have included Art Adams , Huelyn Duvall , Joe Clay , The Collins Kids (Of course) , Wanda Jackson (Ditto.) , Charlie Gracie , Billy Lee Riley , and Hayden Thompson and Sonny Burgess (But he was TERRIBLE the last time I saw him , and I missed the Batusis to go , again , out of respect , and , while he usually BLAZES , he failed.

I recently saw both Ray Campi and Mac Curtis for the first time, at last April's Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekend.  Both are a little worse for wear - hell, they're in their eighties! - but it was cool to see them perform, nonetheless. 

I'm auctioning off a test pressing of the MASTERS APPRENTICES "Undecided" b/w "Wars Or Hands Of Time" 45 reissue on Ugly Pop, with all funds going directly to Norton. Check it out and bid hard if you can-- you'll getting a very rare (this is #3/10) copy of one of the greatest garage singles ever released, and you'll be helping out some very good people in the process!

Kid Congo is all around the bend , stylistically speaking. His last album , "Dracula Boots" is my favorite. I found a beatup copy of "Dr. Rhythm" , one of two of The Dave Clark Five's Freakbeat singles. I forget the other one. But , I gave him the copy I'd just found , as I have two copies , already. I hope he covers it.
