    • I've heard that about him, very cool...It would be very interesting to hear his take on your song "How 'Bout I Slap Your Shit"!

    • LOVE the site for sure, but I do wish there was more soul, exotica and old school blues.

      I'm not much on reggae but I really dig the trad ska/bluebeat/rocksteady stuff from the early 60s...slowly realizin' I dig most, if not all, music made from the early 60s (i.e. surf, vocal groups, pop, r'n'r, ska,...the list goes on baby)

      Check out this gem, from 1951 (boogie woogie with the ska upbeats!):

    • I love my reggae...bluebeat/ska/rocksteady/roots/dub/toasting/2-Tone...amazing how one 'small' island created such a musical revolution...

    • I was just reminded once again of this song earlier today. One of my favorite tunes out of any genre!

    • Love the older stuff mainly.  Huge old soul fan.  Stormy, Marion Black, Dyke & The Blazers, just to name a few.  I am a drummer in a garage rock band, but have a side Funk Soul Project.  I love the garage vibe, but there is nothing like layin it down with a funk riff.  Puts you in a good mood instantly!

    • One of my favorite biker songs is Zeke's "Chiva Knievel" that includes some killer motorcycle engine revving!

    • Very well said! I'm still thinking that the scene will revive itself. Just a matter of time :)

      Let me add my own little "Yeah" for Erik, who has been a true indie music supporter for DECADES. The style posers will always come and go, but the true believers like Erik keep this music alive, against all odds.

      Erik, the major economic issues you face are faced by us all -- no one is buying much product, but plenty sure are copying and "sharing it" (it's called stealing in the real world). This is putting so many indie labels and producers out of business, but won't stop anytime soon.

      So I hope you will keep the faith and continue to put out great stuff! We have no other choice, lol. 

      -- your friends in the Arizona desert. :)

    • Best one I saw recently was the Terry Malts. great twitchy garage - reminds me a lot of the Embarrassment. Highly recommended.

    • Definitely going to have to say The Funhouse here in Seattle. It has an evil clown motif! And though I haven't touched a basketball in almost 15 years, they've got a hoop in the back! Always a lot of energy, always great garage/punk shows - stiff and cheap drinks and just an overall fun atmosphere.
