Radio What Wave Extra Long Show Playlist April 7/2017
We started this show at 3:30 (Thanx to our Program Director Ando for giving us the extra time!) and the first half hour was pretty much all Uranus recordings. Uranus recordings as they will be inducted into the Jack Richardson London Music Hall Of Fame this Sunday. The show is happening at the London Music Hall, starts at 7PM and is a free show! Hope to see lots of you out at this event!
Then around 4PM we did the world radio premier of 63 Monroe’s latest LP, Jeff, which is dedicated to the late Jeff Depew, drummer in many of London’s finest bands over the last 20 or so years!
Then we had a special guest in Dave Dysart, guitarist for UIC who are returning to London Ontario for the first time in about 25 years! Dave is the new guy, but familiar to most of us via The Supreme Bagg Team and he has worked with most of the members of UIC in other projects over the years. We yammered like 2 old farts after having way too many beers and had a lot of laughs. Learned a few things too!! UIC will be at Call The Office on Saturday night with Boy From Nowhere and Myrtle Earle.
- Uranus....Highschool….recorded live at the Embassy Hotel 3/22/1982 and broadcast on CHRW. Probably recorded live by Peter Moore.
- Uranus….Route 66….live recording from a car show in Toronto and broadcast on CFNY, probably 1980.
- Uranus….Around And Around….recorded live at Kellys Boogie Parlour and broadcast over the airwaves of CKSL here in London….early 80’s? Kellys later became Bullwinkles, which became Hard Times, then a mall and much later Salt Lounge and even later….
- Uranus….Maybe Baby…..recorded live at Call the Office 10/27/12 as part of the Graphic Underground: London 1977-1990 art show and extravaganza.
- Uranus…..Secret Agent…. As above.
- Uranus….You’re So Square….from the 1980 Trilogy LP You’re So Square….this is the song that made top 10 across Canada and number 3 on CKSL in 1980.
- Uranus….53 Buick….from the You’re So Square LP
- Uranus….Along The Watchtower…. As above.
- 63 Monroe….Punk Rock Goalie….from the brand new LP called Jeff, for late drummer Jeff Depew. This is most likely the radio debut as the record just came out this past Wednesday when 63 Monroe played at Rumrunners as part of the Jack Richardson London Music week. Also on the bill that eve was The Mongrels and Black Donnellys. Great turnout and a really fun eve of music!
- UIC….Pushed In To The Hole….from the brand new Wiseman Sessions that came out on Yeah Right Records. The record release party is happening Saturday night at Call The Office and at this point, we were joined by Dave Dysart, guitar player for UIC.
- Boy From Nowhere….. Southward Bound….recorded live at the Dawghouse, 11/26/16 and the Boy are one of 2 (the other Myrtle Earle) combos opening up for UIC on Saturday night.
- Boy From Nowhere….Back In The USA….. as above.
- The Supreme Bagg Team…. Crankin’ With Elvis….from the Mr Garager’s Neighbourhood LP on OG Records from 1989. The Bagg Team was a band that Dave Dysart was in and they appeared on a couple of What Wave compilation cassettes as well. In my opinion, my fave tune by these guys and this shoulda been a hit!!
- The Supreme Bagg Team….20th Century Dog Faced Boy….from their only longplayer, Stereo on OG Records.
- UIC….Light It And Fly….from the Wiseman Sessions LP.
- UIC….Outta Hand….from the Wiseman Sessions LP.
- UIC….Green Lady…..from the Wiseman Sessions LP.
- UIC…2 + 2….from a rarities CD that Dave brought and most likely from the Accusonic demos from 1985.
- UIC….Blade In The Back…. As above.
- UIC…..Who’ll Start The End….. as above.
- UIC….Cure The War…. As above.
- UIC…..Our Garage….recorded live at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto 9/16 and the only recording we have of Dave in the band. Dave Dysart has only played 2 shows so far with UIC, but as he says, rehearsed a TON of times!
- UIC….Crop Dusting….live recording from Call The Office 3/16/1985. This one goes out to regular listener Mike Burton as he phoned to ask if UIC was going to play this tune at the show.
- UIC…..Shamrock Bang…. As above.
- UIC…..I Got Nerve…. As above.
- UIC…..Let’s Work Together…. As above
- UIC….Telephone…. as above.
- UIC…..Nashville Dreamin’….from the Our Garage LP on Fringe Records.
- UIC….All Together Now…. As above.
- UIC…..You Drive Mad…. As above.
- UIC...I’m Alive… as above
- The Chickens….Chicken Ride….from the Prepare To Plug In CD from 2000. 4/5 of this band was UIC and this same 4/5 are in the present UIC…..make sense? Ken Mikalauskas was the other guitar player in The Chickens, he moved out east and Dave Dysart came in when UIC reformed to do one show a year ago. Since then, they’ve played one more and Saturday marks their 3rd show!
- The Chickens….White Squirrel Town…. As above. We played this song as UIC will most likely be playing this on Saturday night.
- UIC….Rich Kids….from the Wiseman Sessions and we had to fade this out as we more than ran out of time.
Huge Thanx to Dave Dysart for taking the time to come onair and yammer about UIC and things from days gone by. Hope you listeners had as much fun as I did!!!
Sunday is the annual Jack Richardson London Music Awards happening at London Music Hall. Uranus will be inducted into the hall of fame that night and play a couple of songs live. We're nominated in one of the categories....and it's free! See you on Sunday night!
Next week will be a Good Friday show and we’ll continue with the almost all local tunes with a few new releases that have been dropped off at HQ…..Thanx to all the bands that take the time to send us stuff!!!
