this is the 2nd half of FREE FORM FRENZY #56 http://archives.wpkn.org/bookmarks/listen/37367

Audio Gasoline  , I've considered the matter , and I see your P.O.V.   You were right.     

  "JUSTINE !!! JUSTINE !!!!  YOU JUST WON'T TREAT ME RIGHT , YOU LIKE TO BALL EVERY MORNING , STAY OUT LATE AT MIGHT!" - It moves from a happy to a frustrated mood , if you listen to the lyrics.   SO , IT'S LIKE "Good Golly Miss Molly" , not just in reference to "Ballin' " (Which is what they used to say before someone came up with the brilliant idea of making "Party " a verb.) , BUT , in that Justine or Miss Molly MIGHT LOVE THEIR OLD MEN , BUT THEY'RE STILL TOO WILD FOR ONE MAN TO HOLD DOWN. 

AND , OF COURSE , BEFORE THERE WAS LITTLE RICHARD OR DON AND DEWEY , THERE WAS LOUIS JORDAN -  "YOU KNOW , MY MAMA TOLD ME TO LEAVE CALDONIA ALONE. NO FOOLIN' ! SHE SAID , SON , STAY AWAY FROM THAT GIRL ! SHE'S BAD FOR YOUR MORALE ! BUT , MAMA DID'NT KNOW WHAT CALDONIA WAS PUTTIN' DOWN......SO , I'M GOIN' TO CALDONIA'S HOUSE , KNOCK ON HER DOOR , AND SAY , "CALDONIA!!! CALDONIA !!!! WHAT MAKES YOUR BIG HEAD SO HARD ?!!!!!".

Justine? As in , Justine by Don and Dewey?  That's a happy song. The guy does'nt get his heart stepped on or his balls broken , but , maybe we're thinking of two different songs ?

Audio Gasoline said:

Hard Headed Woman - Elvis

Jezebel - by anyone, the Mummies' version rules, and Horton Heat's is kinda spicy

Justine - The Trashwomen, Mummies

Take Me As I Am - Denise & Co. (Girls in the Garage Vol 1)

Of course , any version of "Mean Woman Blues" , starting with Jerry Lee , Elvis , Roy Orbison , Charlie Feathers ......But , there's so many of 'em......There's a great bit from the unreleased "Jerry Lee Lewis Show" TV pilot , where they BOTH sing in the third person !!! Yes !!!!

"Whatever Jerry Lee does , he does mighty good!" "Boy , she makes ol' PERKINS  flip...".

.....I did have a couple of younger guys ask me , after an Iggy show in '88 , IF I WERE RON Asheton's son !  Anybody else have a funny story like that ? 

Jeff Liles , who booked Screamin' Jay in Dallas in '86 and '87 , stated , recently , that when Jay played at The Dallas Hard Rock Cafe (May all the world forget she ever stood) , the 2nd of those two shows , cops showed up , backstage to arrest Hawkins for non - payment of child support for the Mother of one of his kids , then residing in Dallas.Liles said that he persuaded the Officers to wait until after the show to arrest him , because there would have been a lot more trouble if there was no show. He was right about that. We were all primed....And I did wonder what was taking so long !  

There's a very good documentary about this , culminating in a reunion with all of Jay's then - known children. The only non - participants are his children from his first marriage , who refuse to believe Hawkins would have cheated on their Mother , or fathered other kids out of wedlock. It's very sad , because the others seem primed to celebrate that they all have Screamin' Jay Hawkins in common.   I'm not saying what's wrong or right , only my initial impression.

I am the bastard son of Bo Diddley.

GLAD TO , IF IT'S ANY HELP. When I first heard Calvert's original...I went ...waitaminnit.....

Thanx for the nifty heads up on that.....:)

John Battles said:

 YOU'RE RIGHT. IT WAS BEN MILLER. DAM GOT OVER WITH THE PUNK CROWD , BUT THEY WERE VIRTUALLY UNCLASSIFIABLE. I READ AN EARLY REVIEW THAT COMPARED THEM TO HAWKWIND....WELL, THEY DID DO ROBERT CALVERT'S "THE RIGHT STUFF" , A GREAT TUNE.

Hmmmmm, it may be Michael Davis, but I don't know, actually, but I think, hmmmmmmmm, it's not Ron(?????).

The sax player was Ben Miller..

DESTROY ALL MONSTERS - Art Garage Punk 1977 - 78

COME ON ! BUY THE NEW UGLY THINGS !!!  IT'S GREAT !! AND ,  HRH PRINCE PHILIP WANTS TO START HIS OWN GARAGE PUNK CAMP !

Many people are THAT uptight about something....It's not always about establishing a ranking order in the music "Scene". But , sure , there are men who , maybe , did'nt get into sports , but take that same mentality  into music . Trust me , they can be just as condescending to other males. The guitar stores are full of them , frustrated  guitar heroes who , maybe , are technically superior , but , they can't play in bands  because they're so egotistical (Or because contemporary tastes in music have passed them by.) and so devoid of ideas.....And , they would'nt know how to present their wankery as a solo (No pun intended) act.  But , I can readily imagine how some of these hard-ons treat women , even women who've already surpassed them as musicians.

yeah,and there still are asshole way less ballsy and less talented than chicks ,yet trying to push around women playing r-n-r.There will always be that kind of ridiculous crap coming from (quiet a few) men...and not only on the artistic level,of course.The only thing to do is keep pushing back their attacks.

The Fall - Unreleased Documentary FunFunFun!

Sorry, the interview's not online. This was several years before Al Gore invented the internet. I might have a yellowed clip somewhere. But yes, Mark E. was in a great mood that night. I have a feeling those were less rare when he was younger.

gregor said:

ok here's what i think on it all,firstly i believe the fall are the closest and any band has ever came to perfection(in my ideals at least),and no i dont believe them to be the greatest garage act ever,without being at all controversial,if your speaking about the best garage bands ever,id have to mention bands like oblivions,standells,kingsmen,the seeds,maybe early white stripes,etc etc,but in amonst all that i believe the fall deserve an honourable mention,like tirc said above he'd never thought of them in that context,the reason i do is there total dedication to a non fuck around attitude to recording and production,there constant productivity,generally a total lack of pretention,a constant name checking and covering of garage bands like count five,the move,the monks and so many more,and mostly there total disregard for the mainstream,so no i dont believe them to be the best GR band ever but i do think they should be mentioned a lot more in the context of GR.

@jon,belter of a tune and album YFOC!!!mental recording that 30 ye into your career!:)

@swt.have you a copy of your interview online i could read,i take it he was in one of his better moods that night?

Would we dare ask Mark E.Smith this question? I bet not.

I don't know exactly how to categorize The Fall, but I do know Mark E. Smith is a freakin' lyrical genius.  

 Became a recluse
And bought a computer
Set it up in the home
Elusive big one
On the screen
Saw the Holy Ghost, I swear
On the screen

All those whose mind entitles themselves,
and whose main entitle is themselves,
shall feel the wrath of my bombast!

Nuff Said!!!!

It doesn't warrant being called real country, as it's not about working class pride, drinking, fighting and fucking. I'd rather have some Ray Charles or Fann Wong anyday.

I don't know if this is really a punk rock interview, but it's Mojo freaking Nixon. This is the second time I've interviewed him. This one was about Rock n Roll Comics, a DVD in which he appears.
