What?! No references to 'X'? How about their cover of Breathless for starters.

..and for a change of tempo...Leonard Cohen/Jenifer Warnes - Joan of Arc ..beautiful.

Yep. Their music that should be shared with the world. I know i went a bt off subject but.... Y'gotta love'em

I was gonna say Under Pressure, then I was gonna say the final song from Rock and Rule, but I think Deep Purple has a slight edge on both of them.

Thank you all, Guys!
Great stuff in here!

Rowland S. Howard - (I Know) A Girl Called Jonny

I'm really sorry to hear about that.  Bands frequently skip Pittsburgh too, but at least I can always make a bus trip to NYC or Cleveland to see them.  That's really sad that you're so isolated.

I live in a very small town in the middle of a shit hole called South Dakota. We never get any good music to come through this state other than old, fading, dying out bands desperate to make their last quarter; so when I heard The White Stripes were coming I practically pissed myself. Then come close to show time Meg had that "nervous" breakdown and they canceled tour...I can't believe I was that close to seeing one of my favorite bands and now there isn't a chance in hell i'll see them. Hopefully I get to see The Dead Weather sometime in my lifetime. 

List of Train Songs (Wikipedia)

The Johnny Burnette Trio ~ Lonesome Train (1956)

Performance by one of the pioneers of the rockabilly sound, The Johnny Burnette Trio.
Segment from the teenage rock 'n' roll movie "Rock, Rock, Rock" (1956) hosted by then popular radio disk jockey Alan Freed, who appeared in several movies of this type.

ZZ en de Maskers ~ Cadillac (1965)

The Shamrocks - Cadillac (1965)

Not a song as such, but the 'Banana Splits' had the coolest wheels. even cooler than the Anthill Mob from Whacky Races.

Jaguar And Thunderbird - Chuck Berry

Go Go Yamaha - The Spats

The Renegades - Cadillac - Studio Live Video 1964

Lydon is selling British butter by the pound over here thanks to some fabulous advertisement campaign. He also Went on a turgid programme, 'I'm a celebrity, Get me out of here' thats very popular apparently. Loads of celebrity(?) making complete tits of themselves in real life telly, in the vain hope that someone still loves'em and resurrect their careers. Lydon was brilliant. It paid for the last PIL album and all the amazing solo stuff he keeps releasing. Surely a great advert for a real icon selling out for the greater good. Vive le Pistols

Two in the mix for ya. Britains very own 'Ten Benson' and 'Kid Congo and the Pink Monkey Birds' Fabulous schlock'n'roll. 'Unnatural Helpers' might be worth a shout as well. 'Black Angels' '18th Dye' and 'Future of the Left' are just sublime. 'Pissed Jeans' rock! Hope this helps

I don't really compare them musically, but they're all Cramps influenced one way or another, the vibes are there. Sting-Rays sounds good, a little more psychobilly but i liked them; Art Phag is very good! Gonna definitely look for more of their stuff. Whats the name f you bands, send me some stuff; if its deja voodoo influenced i'll probably like it dont worry about the rest.

Axel said:

I wouldn't compare the Purple Things to Deja Voodoo or Bone Orchard but I agree that their first two records on Media Burn are fantastic. If you haven't heard them yet listen to the Vibes, the band the singer had before the 'Things'. Early Sting-Rays might appeal to you, too, like their 1st EP and LP 'Dinosaurs' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aiL4CIzDFyc. Another 2-piece band similar to Deja Voodoo(but nowhere as great) was 'Art Phag', on Wanghead Records http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dakg0QpkKQw&feature=related 

I played in a band heavily influenced by Deja Voodoo in the mid 80s but we were sooo bad, I can't recommend listening to us, lol.

Deja Voodoo is great, it got to listen to a few tracks from House Of Knives in a Myspace page,  sounds very good! I like the Gun Club too and I listened to Blowstops and sounds good too. Thank you both. I found this other band that sounds similar to the bands mentiones before, 'The Purple Things' you guys should check them out in youtube. 

Yes I reciently listened to the Chrome Cranks and Jesus Lizard i dig em both, good bands; gonna look for the others now

Robert Bell said:

I'm a big fan of Birthday Party, and although these might not be in the exact same vein, heres a few I'm diggin' on:  The U-Men, Cows (Cunning Stunts is me fave), Chrome Cranks, Jesus Lizard, Hammerhead, God Bullies, Rudimentary Peni...

Listened to God Bullies, good band; and you're right no one sounds like the Cramps but there are a lot of good bands influenced by them who have their own unique sound, like Deja Voodoo for example like you said. I checked out The Dyes & 3-D invisible are good too!

John Battles said:

. If you like the bands you mentioned....maybe I'm dead wrong , but , I saw God Bullies once , and they sounded a lot like The Birthday Party to me. I started listening to The Jazz Butcher again , recently. They were all over the place . Loosely associated with the whole Garage/Trash /Psychobilly thing , as was some of the Goth and Gloom MUSIC HAPPENING AT THE TIME. Lindsay Hutton told me "The Cure , The Cramps and Siouxsie have NOTHING in common except that maybe they all use a lot of hairspray !".....You might want to check out the Blood on The Cats (LP and Video) and Revenge of The Killer Pussies" (LP) comps if you have'nt already. Bone Orchard and Inca Babies appear on 'em , as well as The Stingrays , Vibes , Milkshakes , Screaming Lord Sutch , Sharks ,  Even Shockabilly. NO ONE sounds like The Cramps , but , they influenced so many other bands. Deja Voodoo , admittedly ,  sound like a Cramps bootleg. That's GOOD. In more recent years , The Dyes wear their influence like a badge. 3-D Invisibles are'nt really Crampesque , but , they're some of the best modern Horror/Novelty Punk Rock.

No room in there for  Ray and Dave Davies? Surely, 'Everybody's Gonna Be Happy' is pure garage gold. 'Waterloo Sunset' would bring a tear to any glass eye. Perhaps another topic in there? 'Bands sadly overlooked, even by the Punkers'. We should always 'question reality' because we can seldom get to question those who shape it!

As my bumper sticker reads Question Reality ?  This big round ball we live on that floats in the middle of nowhere can sometimes seem like hell.

Oh , boy . Such a loaded question...i DON'T KNOW IF i STILL BELIEVE IN hEAVEN IN THE TRADITIONAL SENSE, THOUGH i HAVE CAUGHT MYSELF USING IT AS A CATCH - ALL PHRASE.

FOR STARTERS , I can readily see Eddie , Gene ,  Marc , Elvis , Carl , Bo ,  Johnnys Burnette , Cash , Ramone and Thunders , Joey , Dee Dee ,  Brian Jones , Sir Doug , Roy "o" , Link , LUX OF COURSE , Screamin' Jay Hawkins ,  Rob Tyner , Michael Davis , Fred "Sonic" Smith , Jerry NOLAN , RONNIE BOND , Hasil , Dave Day , Roger Johnston , Sean Bonniwell , Razzle , Steve Marriott , Ronnie "Plonk" Lane* , Ron Asheton , Dave Alexander ,  Arthur Lee , Syd Barrett , Dickie Peterson , Janis Martin , Barbara Pittman , Paula Pierce , Richie Teeter , Bryan Gregory , Lord Sutch , DJ JOHN PEEL , HOSS ALLEN , THE REAL DON STEELE , MAD MIKE ,THE MAD DADDY , AND , of course , YOUR OLD PAL , ALAN FREED.

btw, I found out why they called him "Plonk" . Would you like to know?

Haha. We're all goin straight to heck mate! All the members of the Choir will get the nod for this classic
