John, as far as Original Disco Man (which I don't own, BTW)...

It may have been CHEAP, but most importantly it was JAMES BROWN, so you get a pass! Ha!

 James , you forgot M & R Rush .  PSYYYYYYCH !!!!!!!

I've got about 30 James Brown records , too.   Is there such a thing as too much?

I've even got "The Original Disco Man". IT WAS CHEAP !!! I need help , Ladies and Gentlemens ! 

The artist with the most LPs in my stash is James Brown. Haven't counted in a long time, but it's probably creeping up on 30 by now.

Others with ten or more titles:
Kinks

Grass Roots

Bo Diddley

Sam The Sham

Paul Revere & the Raiders

Jerry Lee Lewis

Ventures

Johnny Cash

Temptations

Rolling Stones

Link Wray

Louis Prima

Syl Johnson

Wilson Pickett

that is one hell of a collection!!  jealous as hell!! great stuff

The Damned followed by the Ramones. Mostly because they both have released so many damned (get it?) records and 7" sleeve variations etc etc that sucker a collector nerd like me to buy. No picture of me, but a set a photos I'd snapped for another forum. I have to give credit though to an old friend who sold me his entire Damned 7" collection back in the 80's. I knew it hurt him, but he knew it was going to a good home. That's where a good chunk of my Damned and Capt. Sensible singles came from.

1. Guided By Voices

2. J Church

3. Boyracer

Between Bob Pollard, Lance Hahn, and Stew Anderson, I am not sure how my record funds survived.

Elvis P. and Neil Young .....

No need to write a single word about the KING. He will always be my " light in the dark "

Neil Young is so much " part of my life " ... he writes the songs I'll never have talent for ....

Show #366: "Bands & Artists Starting With M, Part 6"

Every 3 weeks I do a series of shows I call the "Alphabetical Series" where I randomly draw a letter of the alphabet from a hat. Whatever letter I draw, I take all the bands and artists in my collection (from the 50's, 60's & 70's only) that start with that letter and play them in strict alphabetical order one by one until I run out of time. This week I drew the letter "M". This is the sixth time I've drawn the letter "M", so I will start from where I left off on show #5 (which was with The Joe Meek Orchestra). So, tune in tonight (Friday at 10:00pm EST) to hear 3 hours of bands and artists that start with "M" like: Mefisto, Mehrpouya, Mel & Tim, Melanie, Gil Melle, The Mello-Kings, Melody Fair, Tina & David Meltzer, Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes, The Members, Members Of Time, The Menaces, Mendelbaum, Carlos Mendes, Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66, Mendoza, Marianne Mendt, The Menn, Mephistopheles, The Mercenaries, Mercy, Merkin, The Merlynn Tree, Jason Merrick & The Finders, Merriday Park, and many others!!

 It'd be interesting , though , to hear what Glam - influenced bands did come out of Australia. There must have been some that played the part , but , maybe did'nt look it .....

I was just thinking about how , in my opinion , "The Raver"by The Troggs sounds like an early blueprint for UK Glam , though they seem to be trying to incorporate an "Aussie" hookline.

John Kongos , from South Africa , was very influential on the early Glam Rock stuff , too . "Neanderthal Man" by Hotlegs is also regarded as one of the early proto - Glam toons. There ought to be an international Glam compat some point , as countries you'd never associate with that sound , had at least a couple of songs that fit the bill. 

just picked up the t.rex unchained box set - 8 cds of demos and rarities... i admit it, im a t.rex tragic... grew up on him and sweet and slade ... Marc Bolan was one of my first heroes... in australia where glam was a big hit but we didnt have many of our own bands picking up on it... maybe because of the pub scene here being more raucous and rock and roll... not a lot of dressing up! wasnt the done thing!  politics etc prob made a difference too...

Haha...that's probably it. He's gonna give Keef Richards a run for the money!

i think joey's taking a break - two diff shows and the real world caught up! :D or maybe he ran out of booze!! 

What happened to 40 oz. Nonsense? That was a great show!

I didn't make it to Austin, but I spent some time listening to Burger's stream from their show last Friday night. The Resonars played at 2AM my time and killed it -- I found a little bit from their Trouble In Mind set the next day on YouTube.

Playlist Mar 22/2012   Special 30th Anniversary of Uranus live to air on CHRW from The Embassy Hotel   3/22/82

We had Uranus guitarist/vocalist Jack Whiteside on as a special guest to talk about what he remembered of the live broadcast, the songs we played, Uranus and present and future projects.

Here's Jack onair with the Uranus LP that he didn't want to be in a picture with...Jack is on the left on the LP cover.

1. Gilligan's Island....Uranus....from their 1980 7". This version was played on CFNY from Toronto many many times and this is the only song that many people know by Uranus.

2. Shake Some Action....live Mar 22/ 1982 from The Embassy Hotel in London Ontario. This was the third night of a 3 night gig and the following songs are all from the same gig.

3. Pink Bedroom

4. Secret Agent Man

5. Rave On

6. Boomerang

7. Uranium Rock

8. Industrial Love....Jack wrote this one for a punk  rock play written by Jane Foy called Sid's Kids

9. Ka Ka Ska...an original by Frank Ridsdale that showed up on a What Wave tape many years ago.

10. Workin' For The Man

11. You're So Square...this one made #3 in London in 1980...Uranus were probably the last London combo to score a top 10 hit on AM radio here in Canada.

12. Ned The Killer Smelt

13. Slow Down

14. 5 Bucks

15. Gilligan's Island

16. High School

17. Rock Me Baby

Huge Thanx to Jack Whiteside for taking the time  to come on air and yammer about a live to air from exactly 30 years ago!! And thanx to all of the call-ins as we had quite a few during this show.

Next week we might have some special guests depending on sound check at a venue here in London

Yeah, I gotta agree with this post.

If you're looking for cheap options then look at the Guitar Fetish site that The Ungodly 77's pointed out. The GFS pickups they sell are worth looking at.

I will say after fitting a lot of splittable Humbuckers into guitars over the years that none of them have sounded like that true single coil sound.

Swapping the pickups will change the tone, but it's not gonna make your SG sound like a Legacy. There's a lot more to the Legacy tone than just the pickups.

Thanks lads. I'll study this well.

Take a look at some of the humbucker sized P-90 pickups, you'll get a much brighter sound, same fit as a humbucker. SGs with P-90s are fabulous!

Seymour Duncan

Jason Lollar P-92 ($$$$ but great)

Where are you based? In the UK, these dudes are worth checking out:

hi, i just got an old Sony reel to reel. i want to record with it but i need some tape. Anyone know of a place online that sells tape that isn't too costly?

                                                          Thanks, Cory

There's a little bit of Fugazi and Gun club according to me...

I'm beginning to think it might be a local Rochester band that pre-dated my move here in 1990.  Thanks to all of you for trying!

definitely wish i had the Big Beat UK Trash stuff, the Gories, the Gruesomes, anything Billy Childish, Cramps (Gravest Hits & any live recordings), Gun Club, Gravedigger V, Mummies & the 1st Meteors album.
