Show #392: "Classical Masterpieces Gone Rock"

Every 3 weeks I leave an open slot to do random themes and whatnot. This week I'm featuring rock and pop music of the 1960's and 1970's that incorporated classical masterpiece works into their music. During the psychedelic and progressive rock era, lots of bands took rock to a higher level, many creating their own classical pieces of art, and often did their own arrangements of classical masterpieces from composers from Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, Handel and many others. Tonight's show features some of my favorite classical masterpieces taken to a different level by rock groups to be heard and enjoyed by a whole different generation. Tune in tonight to hear rock music that incorporates a classical masterpiece by bands and artists like: Triumvirat, New York Rock & Roll Ensemble, Tinkerbell's Fairydust, Curved Air, Vanilla Fudge, The Nice, Sands, The Electric Light Orchestra, Yes, Egg, Renaissance, Le Orme, Beggars Opera, Novalis, Emerson Lake & Palmer, De Maskers, Eric Carmen, Ekseption, Procol Harum, Love Sculpture, and many others!!

Figured since they're a garage band this was the best joint to ask: Does anyone know anything about the Dandy Panthers? (what the musicians are doing now, contact info, etc.)

...all I've ever been able to dig up on 'em is this lousy last.fm page with their tune "Chester's Electric Orgy" (which is really want I'm after, be it on record or digital)...any leads, thanks in advance.

We got asked to do a guest mix stream for the folks over at the Get Bent webzine. Mostly punk & garage with a little indie rock tossed in for balance; had to show my local pride and kept it all to bands from the Pacific Northwest. Heavy focus on history, with classic garage & beat from The Ventures, Kingsmen, Wailers up through 80s & 90s punk from Poison Idea, The Gits and Bikini Kill. Lots of great smaller bands too, that only the locals would know. Check it out, we're pretty happy with how it turned out (except for the stupid half second gap their hosting service puts in between tracks).

I know there are people we missed - hopefully we'll get to do another volume some day.

UNREAL, MAN:):)!!!

"PRESSING PLANT SURPRISE!   We thought this one was gone forever, it's been off the catalogue for about a year or so, and then discovered that our pressing plant had 300 copies pressed and packed long ago and far away and forgotten in a corner!   They have just been delivered to our warehouse in perfect conditon. Get em while they last."

Don't know how new this is, but it certainly made my day.

I saw Tuxedo Moon open for Bauhaus in London in 1980 (on Halloween).  Also saw a show there w/ Wasted Youth, Sex Gang Children and UK Decay.  Pretty cool. Not sure if anyone's mentioned Skeletal Family, an overlooked band from the era. And Play Dead.

Tuxedomoon were great! They use to live in Italy in the 80s, I´ve seen them many times live. :) Did someone mentioned Devo or the Residents? Important bands back then.

Yep, I love goth too (Bauhaus live ´82? was simply fantastic!) but not only ... In general love most stuff from the 80s. It´s my time, my music and Kopper´s list could be my list too! In there i would add bands like Sonic Youth, Pere Ubu, Tuxedomoon, Pixies, the Sounds, Beasts of bourbon, Foetus, to mention very few more... 

One band who devastated me (about ´81) was Circus Mort, just 4 songs but WOW!!!!!!!!!! (I was also really impressed by their drums). Unfortunately i´ve never seen Circus Mort live just few years later, Swans (was great too:)

OK, I think this is where I should post this. Just uploaded a Droogs show to my blog, thought some may be interested:

Devils Dogs - Brand New Chevy

Vince Taylor and his Playboys - Brand New Cadillac

 Just discovered your group/show. Listening to the archived show, the playlist from this week looks great too. Love the Cancon aspect. I'll be listening from now on, except Thursday is our band practice night - hope the archives continue to work.

Very Cool! Love this raw DIY stuff. I have an old suitcase drum and snare set up I actually record with once in a while, not nearly as creative or original as this though, but it thuds.

frenzy, the crooners from sweden, mad sin;

Oh yea, also, to reply more specifically to the original post: It's not brand new, but the band, Cave, from Chicago are awesome. Their album NEVERENDLESS on Drag City is great, and they're super good live.

There's also "e.y.o.b." (Eat Yourself Out , Baby") by The Nip Drivers. It's actually a medley , of sorts , back to back with a hilarious (Tho' infinitely superior)modified cover version of "RIO' BY Duran Duran. POP - PUNK BEFORE IT SUCKED.........Both tracks , togethe r, could'nt be well above one minute.

I´m at a loss for words! :D

Thanks.  If you prefer a different format let me know.  I can't change the name of the files for some reason.
