Egg

Thank God they are still around,gives all of us old rockers some hope.The new songs are good not to mention the Some Girls and Exile re-releases w/all those unreleased songs thats like 3 new stones albums in the last few years,Oh yeah and the new movie Cross Fire Hurricane.......All Hail the Stones!

I like the song, but it took a few listens to sink in.  I think the surprising negative is there's no clear Keef hook.  The man generates hooks in his sleep.  Why didn't he distinguish "Doom and Gloom" with a strong guitar hook?  The vocal performance is what finally got me.  It's got Jaggerswagger.  It's been a while since that's been seen.  I don't think it's a great song, but it's a good song I won't turn off when it comes on the radio.  Might even sing along.  

Because the are so much better at it than Aerosmith? Because they are doing what they love, have done literally their entire adult lives, done it uniquely well, and will keep doing it into the grave--and folks are envious?

I don't know Andy C. but I agree with your observation 100%.

p.s No one is really that pissed  that Aerosmith are releasing and touring again. In fact they're being loved for it. Why are Jagger an Richards bein picked on?

Very well could be. Although I have to be responsible for a couple of days. Children in hand. I feel like I am cluttering up the latest activity here at GPH. Everyone else is out playing shows and partying. I am on vacation until the end of the year. I have a lot of time to play. Enjoy.

ArrrrrrGhhhhh!!! I wish a better translatorrrrr
for: "you are playing steering wheel guitar to it. "

but i got the feeling i´m with you! 

:D

ps: i´m stoned again too...
could we possibly be related??

Good point. And songs can grow on you. One minute you can't stand it.  3 weeks later you are playing steering wheel guitar to it.

I´ve heard the song the first time now, is not bad...

why should they stop music? (or even die!?!), guess is what they can do best, anyway!      As long they have people buying records and going to concerts, why not? :)

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?

"Worst Record Ever Made" by Althea & The Memories (Kim Fowley) 

There's so many , and , yet , there's so few , y'know what I mean? I'm more interested in findinding utterly stoopid songs from back in the day , as you mentioned above.

I have that "Aba Daba Doo" 45 (The B-side is a pretty good version of "Why" by The Dirty Wurds.). I think it was the last thing The Coctails ever did. In fact , I had'nt heard anything about them in years when that record came out. This is VERY atypical of their repertoirre , not that that's a bad thing....They were more into this Lounge Jazz and naive 60's Pop Rock thing. Their promotional gimmicks were astounding. I wish I could say the same for their music. Nice guys , though. Anyway , you got.....

Legendary Stardust Cowboy - Paralyzed , Who's Knockin at My Door , etc.

The Driving Stupid - Horror Asparagus Stories , Green Things Have Enterred My Skin , Gladys , etc.

Ralph Nielson and The Chancellors - Scream!

Tommy Martin and The X-10s - The Hoochie Coochie.

Kai Ray - I Want Some of That.

Elastik Band - Spazz.

The Novas - The Crusher    (Don't let the fact that you've heard it a Thousand times prejudice you. The guy sounds like he's choking to death on his own vomit !).

Bunker Hill - The Girl Can't Dance (Again , it still sounds like Bunker jumping off the Empire State Building , with Link and The Raymen taking the stairs , no matter how many times you hear it.).

New Colony Six - Legend of The Batwinged Marmaduke.

Thee Midniters - I Found a Peanut. (The Alpha and The Omega on Musica Garaje Estupido.).l

New email from Norton Records:

So, Norton Records and our print subsidiary Kicks Books has been savaged by Hurricane Sandy. Our stock and archive has been housed for the past seven years in Red Hook Brooklyn, at the historic Van Brunt Warehouses, pre-Civil War brick warehouses that were built to warehouse DRY GOODS -- tea, coffee, spices, and sugar. In fact the Domino Sugar Co. warehouse was right next to our place until recently, when their silo was torn down. There was no doubt in our minds that the Red Hook warehouse was secure-- it had withstood 150+ years of nature’s fury, after all. The insane and demonic combination of the hurricane, the high tide, the full moon and full-on interplanetary wrath resulted in a vortex that tore directly in through the waterways separating Brooklyn from Staten Island and straight into the island of Manhattan.

Most of you know the history of the label. Billy Miller and myself (this is Miriam Linna here) started the label in 1986 as an audio offshoot of our Kicks Magazine which we had been publishing since 1979. The label is focused on music that has been forgotten by the main veins that feed the public. It’s been a struggle from the start but in celebrating the label’s 25th anniversary exactly one year ago, we truly felt that we have reached a point where we could at least continue with releasing records and exposing people to the greatest rock n roll on the planet. Here we are today, soaked to our skin with so much destruction.

Nearly all of the Norton Records stock – our label’s LPs, CDs, 45s, picture sleeves, CD booklets, record labels and more, as well as the stock on other labels we distribute including Relic, Crypt and Stompin’ merchandise plus mail order-only stock he entire Kicks Books and Kicks Magazine stock was destroyed. We have small existing quantities of things at our home office, but very little. Thankfully, two full printings of the latest Kicks Books, GETTING IN THE WIND by Harlan Ellison and LORD OF GARBAGE by Kim Fowley, are high and dry at the printer. Also, our new releases are scheduled in as soon as trucks are rolling- several new El Paso volumes, T. Valentine and Daddy Long Legs, the Horror Of Party Beach guys The Dynamic Delaires ZOMBIE STOMP, and Kim Fowley KING OF THE CREEPS LP/CD. Release date is Nov. 20 for all things new. Our entire Norton archive went underwater, including all of our correspondence, photos, documents, reviews, master tapes, ephemera, posters, including at least ¾’s of my vintage paperback collection (several thousand books) and virtually all of the old magazines and fanzines which went back to the 1940’s, again, numbering into the several thousands, interview tapes, 25 years of correspondences with Norton artists, original photographs, original rock n’ roll and movie posters, Norton business records, family items, furniture, musical equipment, my Del-Aires-owned 1962 Slingerland drum kit (Ironically we have just released the Del-Aires LP, after years in the process--!-- I’m goint to drag the kit out of the swampy rubble today, having set it to drain last week. If it’s bent and banged, so be it. Maybe it’ll be a new even more “warped sound” for the A-Bones and Figures of Light), recording equipment, our 1948 Lady Robin Hood pinball machine, Billy’s baseball collection….all waterlogged, and mos of it, if you will excuse the expressiton, dead in the water. The shock and horror of the loss on every level is difficult to deal with, but we are clinging to the hope of surviving as a label by saving the records. We will them proceed with re-manufacturing 7” sleeves and LP jackets one title at a time. We are hoping to still ship new releases by November 20th, and hope you guys and gals will get aboard with these releases, as we try very hard to get on track.

We have a mind boggling 2013 release schedule for Norton Records and Kicks Books and it’s our hope that we can still DO IT. Billy’s Ultimate Kim Fowley Singles Discography 1959-1970 which was scheduled to appear on our website to coincide with Kim’s new book and album has been postponed indefinitely. We thank our friends at Interfuel who have worked diligently to launch our new website, which is on hold right now until we can assess what we need to remove from availability. We ask a few questions- can you people deal with 45’s without sleeves, in other words, will you buy our 45s if they just have white sleeves right now-- it will take a long time and a lot of long green to get new sleeves made for all of them? Please let us know if any of you geniuses have ideas on how we can carry on, or move forward. We think if we get even a few volunteers with scanners and laptops and maybe drying space who can help dry documents and scan them. Like maybe one person would be willing to take a few artist files, separate and hang them to dry and then scan them.. how does that sound? That’s one thing that is a race against the clock. But vital is getting the vinyl washed and dried and resleeved.

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.

Also Matt Kurz One.. he's got way to much going on...

Brian Chippendale from Lightning Bolt has a one man band project called Black Pus... Both are pretty dang rad..

I'm Calvin. I'm a kind of a weirdo, or at least that's what they tell me. I eat skittles, watch cartoons and dick about on the internet. I play voice, and guitar. How do I end this? I feel like I'm rambling or something.

heres to the next stranger...

My name is Lita, I love coffee and cigarettes on cloudy days and wine and dancing on friday nights. My two passions are art and music. I played drums in a band for 2 1/2 years before we broke up and I'm currently learning to play guitar. I also attend college for graphic design. I'm a shy person, unless you ask the right questions...if you're willing..

Oh Dylan for certain. If only for Highway 61 Revisited. But I like stuff from throughout his career. His last 3 or 4 albums aren't his best, but they're better than most the stuff her did in the 80s. He wrote some great gospel songs too.

But Donovan did some fine stuff too. Others have mentioned "Hurdy Gurdy Man." There are a couple of cool rockers on the Sunshine Superman album,  "The Trip" and "The Fat Angel."

My favorite Donovan covers:

"Sunshine Superman" by Husker Du

"Hurdy Gurdy Man" by Butthole Surfers

"The Fat Angel" by The Jefferson Airplane (Live versions available on a couple of albums."

Oh yea, she has great stage presence

Oh shit I forgot Karen O and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Jesus, how irresponsible of me.

Oh shit I forgot Karen O and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Jesus, how irresponsible of me.

Also Brody Dalle of The Distillers and Spinnerette

I'm really in love with Alison Mosshart of The Dead Weather and The Kills. She has killer stage presence that blows my mind.

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.

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.
