Why don't you set up a blog for your Fuzzcast so people can subscribe? That's sorta the point of doing a podcast, ya know. ;)
Otherwise they're just static audio files that people have to download the hard way.

Since you mention this, I saw Lou Reed's costume from his "Transformer" days at the Hard Rock Cafe in NYC during my last trip back in January. I'll admit it's nothing all that spectacular, but it was still cool to see.

The other day, I was exploring London and ended up at the V&A In Kensington. I coughed up £12 to go to the exhibition on British design from 1948-2012 and I even got to see the costumes of David Bowie, Brian Ferry & Brian Eno. The workmanship is incredible on each of them and they still looked amazing, even today.
I also got to see the Factory Records early stuff there, which looks awesome today.
Talking of hair metal, were there any bands who mixed it with 60's psychedelia, or power pop, noise rock, punk or R&B?

Chris , That's so cool that you got to see some of that stage gear. You're right, a lot of great workmanship went into these clothes, particularly Bowie's Japanese stage wear. Bolan , unfortunately , was criticized for not spending as much money on his clothes as Bowie , and for not hirng fashion consultants. The clothes did'nt write songs , play guitar or sing.
Good question about whether Hair Metal bands ever diversified. Chicagoland's Enuff Z'nuff (Briefly popular , with an MTV video.)called themselves "The first band to combine Metal and Psychedelia " (Uhh, Blue Cheer , anyone?), but leaned more toward Power Pop (Still do.).

Try telling this to Michael Kastelic of the Cynics:) As far as he's concerned, those first three albums were the only good ones because Tommy was both the band's drummer and producer at the time.
Speaking for myself, I've heard some great tracks from the later albums on the UG, but I've just never gotten around to checking them out. I especially like "7-11," "Go Lil' Camaro Go," "A Real Cool Time," and "Bonzo Goes to Bitburg." The only later album I have is "End of the Century," and "Danny Says" is my favorite track from that album.

Too Tough to Die. Chock full of great tunes. Planet Earth 1988 may be the only Ramones song (other than cover songs) that ends in a minor chord!
I also love I Can't Get You Out Of My Mind and This Business is Killing Me off of Pleasant Dreams.
And how about their version of Happy Birthday played for Mr. Burns on the Simpsons...

Even Dee Dee's crappy rap album is a riot to listen to!

End of the Century and Subterranean Jungle!
June 4, 2012 4:05 AM CDT
A song not many people seem to be into on a site like this is I Won't Let It Happen. I love that song.
June 4, 2012 3:45 AM CDT
Pleasant Dreams. Simply because it was full of great songs!

How many of you are of the opinion that THE RAMONES did NOT jump the shark after their 4th , or even third , album? The way I see it , they never did a BAD album , even if some material was'nt up to par. In the 80's and 90's , their worst still beat the competition at their best . Their shows and their records always had a magic about them, even when they were no longer breaking new ground. What are some of your favorite later Ramones albums , and why? Any favorite songs that most people are barely cognizant of. BTW , Joey's second posthumous solo album is much better than anyone had a right to expect. Give it a go.

3-D Invisibles. They don't always wear masks or makeup , but , when they do , it's something very cool. And , as Rock'n'Horror bands go , they've never got their due.

Los Straitjackets. Gotta love the luchador masks.

How can there be any doubt? The Abstracts' "Hey, Let's Go Now!" of course. :)
"Garagey genius from The Abstracts – a 60s group from Long Island, working here in a unique American take on the British Invasion! There's definitely an ear for the Liverpool and Merseyside modes here – a kind of jangle in the guitars, and a John or Paul quality to the vocals – very different than mainstream US groups, but produced with a garagey grit that definitely sends the whole thing home!" -Dusty Groove Review
