If you are in the mood for some psychedelic garage-punk, there will be loads of it on Saturday September 22 from 1:00-3:00PM EST. Listen to the Jeff of the Future Radio Show at 89.7 WITR-FM in Rochester, NY or streaming live at http://witr.rit.edu.

At least in Spain, the name of the band is going to be "The Devil Dogs -G", and in the posters are the name of the members (Steve Baise, Mighty Joe & Mike Mariconda).

Of course, i would prefer to see again the Devil Dogs (one of my favourite bands ever) with Andy, but i prefer seing them with Mike than not seeing them.

HMMMM.....How did he know that I am The Gentleman?   Just because I put the toilet seat down when I'm at a lady's house?.....and then I piss all over it ?

Kopper--no really, Thank YOU.

Gentleman John Battles--Howdy!, and thanks.

Thanks everybody--I appreciate it more than you know.

 

Wow ... that's just wrong.

As Tony Orlando (and the Devil Dogs) would say, "Bless You."

Fuck the Phony Dogs

Cardinal Point ~ I'm the Grand Pretender / Lolly Linda (1973)

I listened to Alice Cooper when I was 11 years old.

Man, takes me back - at college in the late 80's and listened to hardcore punk and garage revival stuff mainly but with a fair smattering of british indie (or just indie as we called it in the UK) - Pop Will Eat Itself always a fave, plus the aformentioned Inspiral Carpets (Mad As Fuck), Stone Roses and loads of 'shoegaze' and 'dreampop' stuff (Cocteau Twins, Loop, Swervedriver). Don't really indulge too often now, but an important part of my musical history.

Big thanx to Jaime and Dave of The Hook Up for dropping by to spin some platters and do some yammering about music. And as we found out, Dave and i were at some of the same shows over the years, long before we knew each other!

And next week we have our live to air with Bloody Diamonds, coming all the way from Halifax to play for you, the listener!

I know at least one New Mexico state legislator who subscribes to The Big Enchilada.

I won't be happy until Gabe Kaplan reveals himself.

You're right. I'm actually John Goodman in disguise. ;)

How could there not be?  The podcasts are simply the best collection of music around.  Surely this place has top hollywood movie stars in disguise, big time music producers in ninja masks, long-term, household name rockers subscribing to feeds.  When I think of all the podcasts, the ones coming out now, and those of old (miss you Alex Piandes) it is obvious this is the place to be.  If Joe Strummer was around you know he would be kicking about.  Wish I had a reveal button to see who is all here.

Every song I've ever liked has gone into this bowl, and every three weeks I draw them out one-by-one and play them for you in no particular order. A mix of everything and anything I like, no matter what genre, era, style or year of release...if I like it, then I'll play it! No repeats of the same song ever! Tune in tonight (Friday) at 10pm EST for the 124th installment of The Eggman Collection and hear bands and artists like: Yes, The Spencer Davis Group, The Byrds, Aum, Santo & Johnny, The Moody Blues, Zior, The Syn, The Monkees, Procol Harum, The Who, Portebello Explosion, Steeleye Span, Black Sabbath, The Kinks, Peter Hammill, Mops, The Easybeats, David Hemmings, Yatha Sidra, and many others!!!

I just read this book, and I liked it. Even in his own words Johnny Ramone appears to be quite an asshole, but I still can't help but like him somehow. Also, it's interesting to hear the Ramones story in Johnny's words.

.....SAY WOOMAN !!!!!   Nobody ever accused Bo of having the most enlightened views on women , but , he incorporated women in his bands , and not just as backing singers , long before it was even regarded as acceptable to the masses who were asses.

The Duchess was followed by Lady Bo , Cookie and others. He had a female Bass PLAYER IN HIS REGULAR BAND (When he was'nt using pickup bands.) for about 20 years.....

The Duchess

ONE OF MY FAVORITE VERSIONS OF "GHOST RIDERS IN THE SKY" WAS BY RONNIE PROPHET , ECHOPLEX OVERKILL.....A MEXICAN BAND , I THINK , LOS BABYS, DID A SIMILAR VERSION. MUY PSICODELICO.

I made one...it was a fun little project. Fine for home use...not even close to being practical on stage. 

I do build a pretty sweet tremolo myself though.... check it ;)

The Troggs are considered , by many , to be the only true Garage Punk band Britain produced in The 60's. I had the pleasure of telling them,  once , that there are many of us who would like to adopt them as an American band. Of course , they were thrown back "WOT?! What's this, then?!". Sadly that'll never happen , and it does'nt look like Reg will ever menace the stage again. I HOPE I'm wrong , but , there's been no further info that I could find , since his diagnosis of Lung Cancer about a year ago.

I'm friends with Gregg Turner, former Angry Samoan. He told me years ago that The Troggs was one of his first big influences. I've heard him do a real nice "Love is All Around."

recently a young employee of the hip local record store asked me to get him up to speed with 60s garage (he's a local big honcho in the grindcore scene) - i have to say i was pretty taken aback - what a nice compliment! well since he has all the records he wants at his disposal, i told him to start with this: the troggs.

now he's got the fever and we email back and forth on a daily basis. just today he sent an frantic note, incredulous that i hadn't told him about "99th floor" by the moving sidewalks (we are in zz top country, afterall). of course i apologized profusely! ha!

....As performed by Lithium Xmas ...."Where are the children? The bible records have arrived !"

Seriously , tho, Nilsson's "Son of Dracula " has a great scene in a pub (Of course) with Harry singing "Jump Into The Fire" with Keith Moon , John Bonham , Peter Framptom (Before he came alive.)and probably some others.

Sounds cool. And on the topic of the Velvet Underground, I just saw that Sundazed Music is releasing a 5-LP box set that looks pretty sweet:

Sundazed October 2012 New Releases
Street Date October 30, 2012 
--------------------------------
THE VELVET UNDERGROUND 5-LP DELUXE BOX SET

Artist: THE VELVET UNDERGROUND
Title: The Verve / MGM Albums
VU 4003 - 090771400314 -  5-LP DELUXE BOX SET

THIS IS A BOX OF ESSENTIAL ROCK & ROLL HISTORY.

At a time when the Rolling Stones were forbidden from singing about spending the night together on national television, the Velvet Underground was crafting songs about such taboo subjects as illegal drugs, sadomasochism and black angels of death. And that was just on their debut. Throughout their first three albums, VU continued to challenge societal norms through their lyrics and rock music itself through their unorthodox instrumental approach. Their sound was theirs alone, which proved to be an obstacle when it came to sales. The majority of popular music fans simply weren’t ready for the bleakly beautiful vision of VU. But for those who were, this LP trilogy was a clarion call, drawing together the outsiders who felt disenfranchised and unfulfilled by Top Forty fodder. Like time release capsules, these LPs became catalysts for change as they spread from city to city and were consumed by adventurous listeners. Bands formed, scenes coalesced and new musical paths emerged which would eventually branch off into punk, alternative, indie and more. Take a sample from any underground music genre and you’re likely to find VU DNA pulsing through its core.

As the alternative scene grew, so did the legend of the Velvet Underground. However, with relatively few of the original LPs in circulation, finding them could be difficult and, as a result, more people had probably heard OF the band than had actually heard their music. The emergence of compact discs in the mid-80s, along with a groundswell of VU-influenced bands singing their praises, finally got their music into wider distribution. Yet, for vinyl enthusiasts who longed to place those precious albums on their turntables, that thrill remained elusive.

Until now. With tremendous pride, Sundazed presents The Velvet Underground: The Verve/MGM Albums. This beautiful, deluxe boxed set gathers the rare mono versions of the band’s first three studio albums along with the superior mono version of Nico’s Chelsea Girl and a definitive edition of the band’s unfinished fourth album! Sourced from the original Verve/MGM analog reels and mastered by Bob Irwin, this collection is an essential purchase for the discerning vinyl devotee. For all tomorrow’s parties, this is your soundtrack.

- The ultimate collection of underground rock’s big bang!
- Includes the rare mono versions of the VU’s first three albums, the superior mono version of Nico’s Chelsea Girl (featuring Reed, Cale & - Morrison) and a definitive edition of the band’s unfinished fourth album!
- Housed in a beautiful deluxe box with all original LP artwork along with two bonus poster inserts!
- Introduction by Rolling Stone senior editor/MOJO contributor David Fricke.
- Sourced from the original Verve/MGM analog reels and mastered by Bob Irwin.

This news has absolutely made my day.  Out November 6, vinyl only.  Check out the link for the track listing.  http://pitchfork.com/news/47922-ty-segall-thee-oh-sees-fresh-onlys-white-fence-on-velvet-underground-nico-tribute-lp/
