Great thread - I've only jumped around it, but y'all got some great taste.

I feel like when I need to buy a record right now, one is never enough...

My votes:

Poison Idea - Kings Of Punk

Quintron - Unmasked Organ Light Year

Jack Oblivian - So Low

That's so funny!  I just saw Hunx and His Punx on the 28th of May in Warsaw!  They were so fun!!!  I even got to meet Shannon and have a shot of Vodka with her!  It was a great evening...

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)

Ah, one of the best!  Why didn't I think of that?  Of course there's also The Dirtbombs' similarly themed - and quite excellent - "Sharpest Claws".

Nitroglycerine Lyrics

The Gories

She fights like a cornered animal.
And she shows all her claws.
Says all the wrong things to hurt me.
She just knows them all.
One second and she's so shy.
Then she just blows up.
It's like dropping a stick of dynamite,
In a Dixie cup.

She's volatile.
She's my baby.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.

She'll tantalize me.
Till I got to explode.
When I'm up there with her.
You just go go go.
Then she starts to bite me.
Man I just don't know.
She starts taking chunks of flesh.
Like a dog on a bone.

She's volatile.
She's my baby.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.

I just don't know.
What'll happen next.
Will she want to fight with me, or
Will she just want sex?
I say girl you get us killed.
She just laughs and says,
Baby, if I die with you,
It'll be the answer to all my prayers.

She's volatile.
She's my baby.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.
Nitroglycerine.

I know- Shepherds Heard

Perfect. Thanks for this one.

No connection at all to 80's metal. Their name is from a Mott the Hoople song. They started by getting together once a week to listen to their 70's vinyl (Alex Harvey, T Rex, the NY glam/punk scene, ie The Dolls, The Heartbreakers, The Voidoids, etc.). I don't really see where you got Faster Pussycat, but I guess we all hear things the way we hear them.

Phoenix, AZ band Crash Street Kids are about as good as glam revival gets.

Oh! You're Brians friend right? I play guitar in his band. We had drinks at the laundromat that night!

Oh you are SO right about that Giuda LP, total 70's glam throwback done really well. Was available on Deadbeat and worth picking up for all the people in this discussion.

Tyler, do you know or are you associated with Varsity Weirdos and Fear of Lipstick? Tom from Moncton whose label I'm spacing on sent me those, good stuff. I  even hung out at the Laundromat!

Not sure if it was mentioned, but that Giuda-Racey Roller album from last year RULES. Members of Taxi (a band that gets far too much hate than they deserve)

Weren't they connected to Electric Frankenstein?

Glam Rocks! Can't forget Sweet. Even the New York Dolls were considered glam.

I can listen to (and enjoy) EVERY Ramones album, but the worst for me by FAR is Brain Drain. I think Adios Amigos is great. I really don't get why so many Ramones fans hate that one. Lot of outside help in songwriting, but at least everyone played on it. Dee Dee never played bass on Brain Drain besides one song (daniel rey and Andy shernoff did) or Halfway to Sanity (daniel rey) Lease Favourite to Favourite, mine are (not counting acid eaters):

-Brain Drain

-Animal Boy

-Mondo Bizarro

-Half To Sanity

-End of the Century

-Too Tough to Die

-Adios Amigos

-Subterranean Jungle

-Pleasant Dreams

-Road To Ruin

-S/T

-Rocket To Russia

-Leave Home

Their cover of the 1910 Fruitgum Company bubblegum classic " Indian Giver " always makes me grin like a 5 year old on Christmas morning. One of those tracks that makes my heart swell with pure joy.

 I don't know why they did'nt do a Kasenetz/Katz number . Maybe they were tired of being viewed as "Bubblegum". The songs that we think are obvious , a lot of average Joe's would'nt have. I really liked hearing them do "Can't Seem ToMake You Mine" and "Out of Time". Word is , they considered doing "Get Me To tHE wORLD oN Time", but could'nt agree on an arrangement.  The funny thing , when Rush recorded their 60's covers album , they did a lot of the same songs . It would'nt have sound bad ,were it not for ol' helium voice.

"Acid Eaters" wasn't terrible, but it seemed to me like -- if the Ramones were going to do an entire album of 60's covers, they didn't really choose a ton of songs i'd have great interest in hearing them play. I mean, they couldn't toss us a bone with "Yummy Yummy Yummy" or something? It's just like...geez, i wish they would've taken requests or something.

I like Acid Eaters too. I'm a sucker for "Journey to the Center of the Mind."

Here's my review of Joey's latest solo record, which was published in the local newspaper. I've got mixed feelings about it, but there's more good stuff there than I thought there'd be

Boris The Sprinkler's first-ever show was with Dee Dee Ramone and the Chinese Dragons. They were godawful.

I was reading the article about your friend who has a Teisco site, but I didn,t see a link to it.

Here's another article/demo we did on a 1960s Supro Normandy guitar.  These are still affordable and just flat out BALL!
