Been doing the same a lot lately-- seems like no one here cares at all about this stuff, but I'm scooping up Whispering Pigg 45s and the like on a weekly basis.

I found a crap-ton of great 45s in a local store's 20/$4.99 section...it took some digging, but i walked out of there with sixty great records, the highlights of which are "Let's Go ((Pony))" by the ROUTERS, "Raunchy" by BILL JUSTIS, "Don't Be Cruel" by the BILL BLACK COMBO, "Wayward Wind" by the CENTURYS, "Beat '65" by the SURFARIS, "Groovy Grubworm" by HARLOW WILCOX & THE OAKIES, "Sausalito" by the OHIO EXPRESS, and, of course, the immortal "Apples, Peaches Polka" by Green Bay's own ALVIN STYCZYNSKI. Nothing better than a bulk 45 run, i say! I love those instrumental records of the late 50's/early 60's; i prize those more highly than straight rockabilly or 60's punk records although all are cool and reet and such.

Thanks, Matt! Yeah, just released a few killer '60s 45s-- all garage monsters, authorized with picture sleeves, inserts, remastered sound and bands paid. Check 'em out here if you care: uglypop.bigcartel.com
As for favourite 45s, the last couple days, it's been The Merry-Go-Round's "You're A Very Lovely Woman" 45. Emitt Rhodes '66.

I've been listening to the new Ugly Pop 45s recently. I tried to start a topic about the label, because they are doing so much interesting stuff lately, but apparently I was denied or it takes a week + to approve such garage rock topics.

Anyway, the new Ugly Pop singles - Bent Wind, A Passing Fancy, and the Northwest Company - All obscure Canadian 60s garage bands that would have fit easily on any of the BFTG comps. Easily my favorite reissues of 2012.

Wow , great sleeve art. "Kuk" , of course , is a classic. I have the single with the also - classic "Baja" ON THE FLIP.

Yeah, the U.S. release had "Kuk" paired with "Baja" instead of "Surf Party". Both great songs and long time favorites of mine. The U.S. 45 is somewhat infamous in Sweden since "kuk" in Swedish is a strongly vulgar word for penis and "baja" means to empty the bowels, haha.

Does that DVD show Mott back in their prime, or is it from their recent reunion gigs? Either way, I would like to check it out. I saw Ian Hunter in concert last year, and he still has it.

Glam is OK by me, I do a glam podcast about once a month or so. And of course, Mott the Hoople, pioneer punks and later glam stars...have a special place in my heart. Just watch the Mott The Hoople DVD that came out last year...and I do recommend it

We just pressed our first LP on DMS in the UK, and I can totally recommend them.. they did a great job and they're chep, fast and very thorough.

Okay... i have switched things around a bit. I unscrewed and took off the top board of this contraption. While rummaging through recycled newspapers, I came out with the idea of filling up the hole on the bottom with newspapers to help muffle the sound while  screwing a board to the bottom, which turns the inbox into an actual box... asides from the cutout. Anyway, after miking this up with a delay pedal on a rockabilly setting, things sounded much better with a very bass ended sound. I still have the tamborine clamped on the front.  Anyway, i will make another video in a day or so showing the improvements of this stomp box. 

Thank you KK. I will look up the book and thank you for your words of encouragement.

Good luck, this is a great idea. 

I make a bunch of different home-made instruments, from stringed to percussion. 

I recommend poking around the Cigar Box Nation site. There are thousands of do-it-yourselfers on there and they have made many variations of what you intend to make. 

Also, a great book entitled "Hand Made Music Factory" by M. Orr is a wonderful book that shows you step by step how to make a variety of these instruments from reclaimed/recycled materials.

The web has everything you need. 

But your idea sounds great, have at it. You can always modify it after you build and the trial by error begins. Bottom line: great idea = just do it!

Here is an update. I just posted a video on youtube, which will document what needs to be improved upon. 

Anyway, the drumming is not really bass ended. I need to find better padding, maybe carpet or something. The percussion sounds like somebody shooting a shotgun instead of a bass drum. i also need to add more amplification, but that is a neighborly issue.

Anyway, this is a work in progress and any suggestions to help modify this would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, I have the whole documentary as all Channel 4 gave me was a normal VHS tape of the show. I had a large party at my house the night it was first shown and taped it off the TV and my copy is better than the one the TV producers sent me! Anyway, I had a friend who also taped it and he sent me a CD which I use to pick parts out of if and when I need them. The program, with the adverts for the channel ran 30 minutes but in all it is about 25 minutes long. I don't think I can upload it complete on Youtube as Channel 4 would probably come down heavy on me. But I may try one day. As for Wreckless Eric, yes he did come down to audition for the early Cannibals, in fact it was just before I changed the name to the Cannibals, sometime around 1976. I was for him to play on but Pete, the other guitarist was against it so I decided to give it a miss. We auditioned the same day Tony Oliver and he wound up being in the Cannibals for a few years.

Show #387: "The Eggman Collection #121"

NOTE: Due to an illness in my family which has me a little distracted at the moment, plus working 50-plus hours a week, I will be doing only Eggman Collection specials in the next couple of months until things slow down in the fall. I'm calling it "The Back-To-Back Eggman Collection End Of Summer Super Spectacular Extravaganza!"
The Eggman Collection is basically a big potpourri of every song I've ever liked in my life...EVER! It's literally a huge mixing bowl full of songs written onto tiny pieces of paper. Over 15,000 songs that I've been compiling for the past 20-plus years of my life. 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 121st installment of The Eggman Collection and hear bands and artists like: Gnidrolog, The Easybeats, The Ventures, The Happy Return, Beacon Street Union, UFO, Food, Ron Geesin & Roger Waters, Stackridge, Fairport Convention, The Electric Prunes, Rockin' Horse, Lazy Smoke, Bob Dylan, Os Mundi, Shocking Blue, Grobschnitt, and many others!!
