Radio What Wave Playlist Sept 17/2015 With Bloodshot Bill

This show is dedicated to Mike 'Star' Shulga, owner of the Star Records Label and Star Records store in Oshawa Ontario. For those that aren't aware, Mike passed away suddenly earlier this week. Mike had been a mainstay of the Canadian record scene since opening his store back in 1974 and attending record shows across the province ever since. He was always the guy with multiple tables of cool records at the shows...ie imports, rare pressings, singles, bootlegs and videos. And if you ever needed to know anything about any of the records he was selling, he'd be able to give you details right off the top of his head! Over the years, we've bought literally TONS of records from Mike. Many of which are among my faves! And Mike would buy stacks of What Wave zines back in the days when we were publishing and would always want more! Thanx for everything over the years Mike, you're going to be sadly missed.

This ones's a good one with songs by Roky Erikson, The Nekromantix, Angry Johnny & The Killbillies, Kay Martin, plus lots of bands I've met through this Hideout of ours ... Horror Deluxe, The Blue Giant Zeta Puppies, Fire Bad!, The Nevermores and more. Check out the entire playlist HERE.

Have a safe holiday and don't take any razor blades in your apples!

 

BIG ENCHILADA 89: Spooktacular 2015 by Steve Terrell on Mixcloud

OK, so I've started a new podcast on GPPR. It's called Carburetor Dung (obvious tip o' the hat there to Lester Bangs, yo). It's a mixtape-style podcast (complete with cassette tape SFX) and you won't be hearing me blathering on about the music or anything else, for that matter. The only times you might here my voice will be when I occasionally do some sort of station ID or soundbytes... goofy shit like that. Actually, on this first episode, you won't hear my voice at all! That's because I started working on it before I knew what the title would be and then after I'd figured that out, I wasn't around a microphone. So anyway, another thing that's different about this show is it's gonna be all NEW music... stuff basically recorded and released in the past 5-10 years or so. Why? Because I think we need a lot more of that on the network. I dig the old shit, too, I just get tired of hearing ALL old shit and virtually none of the new punk/garage trash that's out there. So maybe we'll get some new listeners to the network with this one. Hope so, anyway. I hope you dig it, but I really couldn't care less if you don't. You can hear the first episode HERE.

Mondo A Go Go  'In Go Go We Trust'

Their 4th outing and this release takes a look back over their 20 year career so far.

Get the lowdown at Trash, Garage Garbage & Other Delights  Or head on over to www.trashwax.com.

Good question!

I'd like to hear the answers, too.

There are a lot of different Motown comps and greatest hits out there. I've never found a set that really sounds good. Either there's no bass, or the mix is muddy.

What is the best Motown collection out there?

Hi guys, 

 

Our new release is available for preview and order on ITunes with immediate download of 1 track, hope you dig!

Saw Joan Jett on a Friday night in Las Vegas, then saw George Thorogood in LV the next night... I hadn't seen either one live in 30 years. Yeah, I've been living under a rock.

sORRY , i KNOW I'm here , somewhere.....My faves from the 70's- EARLY 80's Punk era (Fair enough?) include , but are'nt limited to-

The Cramps - Songs The LORD tAUGHT US.

The Real Kids (Self Titled.).

Alan Vega - Collision Drive.

Dickies - Dawn of The Dickies.

Ramones - FIRST FOUR ALBUMS  (PLUS "tOO Tough To DIE", EVEN I IT CAME OUT IN '84.).

Saints  "Eternally Yours''

X-RAY Spex " Germ Free Adolescence.

X - Los Angeles , Wild Gift.

Sex Pistols - Never Mind The Bollocks......

Los Punk Rockers - Never Mind The Bollocks.

Radio Birdman - Radios Appear. 

Vibrators - First two albums.

Damned - FIRST LP.

Stranglers - Rattus Norvegicus , Black and White Album.

EATER - the Album

Hartbreakers - DTK , LAMF (YES , PREFERABLY THE REMIXED VERSION) ,  Thunders - "So Alone".

DEAD BOYS  - Young Loud and Snotty.

Dictators - Every album to date ,except "Manifest Destiny" ( I like about half of it.).

Stiff Little Fingers - Inflamable Material.    Produced by Mayo Thompson (Red Krayola , Pere Ubu)

REZILLOS - ALL THREE ALBUMS , TO DATE.. GO SEE 'EM , BUY THEIR SHIT.

NERVEBREAKERS - my Girlfriend is a ROCK (RAVE UP , iTALY) Hijack The Radio (Get Hip , US.) - BOTH RELEASED POSTHUMOUSLY. THE REFORMED BAND STILL PLAYS , ON OCCASION....

hubble bubble (BOTH ALBUMS).

Hammers of The Gods -

Roky Erickson and The Aliens (Self - titled or TEO , OR EVEN FIVE SYMBOLS) .

Kenny and The Kasuals -Garage Kings. (It varies. When they're on , it's Stiff Records - good .)

Ugly Ducklings - Off The Wall.

Downliners Sect - Showbiz. Plus the 45 of "Showbiz" on Raw Records , a far superior version.

Sir Douglas Quintet - Border Wave (If their Ramonesified version of The Kinks' "WHo'll be The Next in Line" DON'T GIT IT , NUTHIN' WILL.)

T Rex "Celebrate Summer". The Groover's LAST STAND.

MICK FARREN and The Deviants "SCREWED UP"  - Farren delivers the 70's Punk goods , joined by a cross - section of Pink Fairies and Deviants members, plus a future Heartbreaker , Ty Styx. Larry Wallis' Punk - Psych leads are the muthahumpin' shit.

Sky Saxon , Stars New Seeds Hale Fruitarians , ORPHEUS THEATRE , , 1977.  (Bootleg.).  Not flat- out Rockin'. More improvsational. Fans of The Seeds and some 70's Psych Space Rock should dig it. Some of The Child Molesters were on it , and Debbie Harry is rumored to have been in the sparse audience....

The Troggs - Live , Whisky A - Go Go ,1980 OR '81(?) (BOOTLEG_ Better than the Max's Kansas ity set , but , never officially released.....which is a goddamned pity. The Troggs are tearing shit UP , just for a change.....
