When I was in Austin last week I found a used copy of The Billy Childish Native American Sampler: A History 1983-1993. It's a collection of songs and poems about native Americans, including lots of surfy instrumentals.
I thought it was; 'wrapped up like a douche"

Yeah , I thought IT WAS "DEUCE" , BECAUSE , BACK IN THE "70'S" , THE OTHER WORD SEEMED TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE ON THE RADIO, though they probably say it as much as "The " , now. .....BUT , I heard Bruce Springsteen's original version and he REALLY sounded like he was saying "Wrecked up like a DOUCHE".
THERE WAS AN ARTICLE IN "BUDDY " MAGAZINE (DALLAS /FT. WORTH) ABOUT SONGS THAT THEY COULD'NT BELIEVE GOT AIRPLAY - Obvious ones like "Walk on The Wild Side" and less obvious censor - testers like "Miracles" by Jefferson Starship.....Turns out , if you can get thru about six minutes of the painful dirge , it says something about "Remember whenI went down on yoooouuu..." , but , that was intentional....The article listed "Blinded By The Light", as well.

Manfred Man: Blinded by the light. The lyric is revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night. For years I thought they were singing Rolled up like a douche.
Mike , no , it was'nt here....An English guy and MYSELF , WE WERE DISCUSSING IT, somewhere else. I SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE SPECIFIC. But , yeah , Ducks Deluxe were one of the earlier Pub Rock bands .Their Guitarist , Sean Tyla , caried on in the same tradition under his own name and as Tyla Gang (On Stiff , Skydog and other labels.). Nine Below Zero came out a little later. They're in an episode of "The Young Ones". But , I don't have any of their records ,tho' they turn up occasionally. Another , little known , Pub Rock group was Mean Mr. Mustard. I met one of the former members of the band , which toured with Dr. Feelgood , at a Troggs show , but he's since passed away , unfortunately.
(Last line) My stomach was full as it could be , and no one ever got around to finding Timothy."

"sell his soul for a piece of meat"... lol. I think the music does not match the lyrical content, I wanna chew the violin players arm off right now... Thanks for polluting my life for 3 minutes John.
Gary Panter said this happened in Texas Hall in 76 in Arlington , Texas...Tex Edwards said it was at Moody Collisseum in 73 in Dallas , if I remember rightly....
The event was a T Rex show. I've got a book that lists all their US gigs , and they were'nt listed as having ever played Texas Hall (A great venue , BTW.).
"Fan" : Marc ! You look like SHIT !
Marc Bolan : You'd look like shit , too , if you'd FUCKED as many people as I have .
Sorry so late with this reply, but some labels that spring to my mind that dig the psychedelic stuff as much as the garage stuff would be Trouble in Mind Records in Chicago and Off the Hip in Australia. A few others: Woodsist Records, Sacred Bones Records, Castle Face...
I've used TuneCore to get my releases on all the major online stores (Amazon, eMusic, iTunes, Napster, etc.), and yeah, setting up a Bandcamp store is good, too. TuneCore also takes WAVs (I think that's a requirement, actually). They charge $49.99 per release to get digital distribution to all the stores, which I don't think is too bad. They often run specials, too.
Does anyone know labels which dig beat music???
Have you tried Wormtone Records?

Keep the posts coming!!!

Dave, I'm in awe of your Cramps collection. I lost about 2/3rds of my Cramps stuff when I moved to Canada and am still building back up my collection. They're a huge band for me. I was a teenage punk rocker who bought Songs the Lord Taught Us in a Virginia Beach record store on a whim 23 years ago and it became the alpha and omega of everything I've listened to since.
whatwave dave said:OK Alex...you asked for it:
I didn`t count -cause it`s too much work now-but Motörhead,Roky Erickson and Radio Birdman(+their sideprojects!!).
WHY??? Think I don`t need to comment-3 MILESTONES in R´n`R-history!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd like to see a photo of that!

YEBO,the one you need is:ROKY ERICKSON AND THE ALIENS-THE EVIL ONE(plus one) as the cd version,because it has the "modern humans radio show" as bonus cd.
This CD is a Roky`s best-and every good man should have something of his musical output!!
I second that!Got to see these guys a couple years ago with the Fevers and they still got it!

Here's one you probably don't have, but is an amazing live recording from a Minneapolis band who was around in the late '70s playing wild & raucous garage trash when no one else was! It's insanely good...
Hey man!
There are some Hideout threads here that will maybe satisfy some of your ear-ballin needs, just a starter there:
Panti Christ's:IS THERE ANYTHING WE HAVEN'T HEARD?
Some collection of the greats from the 80's & 90's.
CRIMINALLY OVERLOOKED AL-BOOMS!
See ya!
So i want some new sounds to sink my earballs into...
Any recommendations? Garage, surf pop, rockabilly, Psychobilly.
Old, new, either way, send suggestions this direction X
Aaaww! Thanks! Now, I think I just got killed and revived by that!!
Should you come along, we would sink that ship!

No, just your ass contains enough talent and awesomeness. The US couldn't handle the whole of you.
IDON MINE said:If it's gonna be whatever in Europe, I'll do whatever is needed to help out, haha. To even be more fictional, if it's in the US I'll be there to work on it too - if someone flies my ass over there (...and the rest of myself too, of course).
Behold, the definitive Madchester band. Oldham's finest, The Inspiral Carpets:
"Psychedelic Sunrise" by the Chesterfield Kings. I also really like "61/49" by the Romantics.
I also like all of those Cynics' albums that John mentioned earlier, especially "Rock'n'Roll."
