Playlist Nov3/2011....
1. Cramps....Weekend On Mars....from The Band That Time Forgot LP from Trash Is Neat. Limited to 250 copies and available to Cramps fanatics only, hence i have a copy. It's all live stuff, but the best of the boots, and this track featured Bryan Gregory from Club 57 in NYC, 8/18/79.
2. The Cynics...Baby What's Wrong...recorded live at Call The Office, London, Ontario 10/29/11. Best show i've seen The Cynics do since the 1990 tour with The Monomen. The Cynics were absolutely on fire here in London and we were lucky enough to be there to see the fury! Catch these guys live at all costs!
Micheal giving the evil face at Call The Office, London Ontario Canada 10/29/11!!
3. The Cynics...Rock Club...from the latest LP Spinning Wheel Motel on Get Hip.
4. Paul Revere and The Raiders...Kicks...from a Greatest Hits LP. Last week we were playing bands that played here in London 30 years ago and Paul and the boys certainly qualify. Remember catching them at the Western Fair (10 day fair held annually here in London) and they were just amazing live! Lots of comedy, stories and those amazing songs that made these guys legends.
5. Higher State...It's Not Up To You...from the Freakout At The Gallery CD on 13 O'Clock Records. Brand new, just got it in the mail minutes before the show and had to play it! UK combo who have released many records, all with very authentic 60's sounds!
6. Cordcalling...When I Scream...from their debut CD and they are playing the Brunswick in St Thomas tonight.
7. Party Lights...Before You Came...from a brand new 7" from this trio of ladies from NYC. Features Anna Anabolic on guitar and vocals.
8. Photoroman...Faux Depart....from their only 7" and they are from Quebec.
9. Pack ad...Hear Me Out...from their latest LP Unpersons on Mint Records which is still #1 on the Exclaim chart!! And they are coming back to town Dec 16th with The Standstills at APK club.
10. Velvet Underground....promo from 1969 that may have aired on the radio once or twice. It's one of the 7" records in the VU singles 1966-1969 Boxset.

20. Owl Farm...45 Sex...from their brand new CD...Kingston Ontario based combo.
21. 63 Monroe...Bad Bad Rock'n'Roll....from their latest 7" on red vinyl. A band that was played on our last show as they've been around for 30 years.
22. Freddy Cannon...Talahassie Lassie...from his Explosive! LP. Freddy played The Western Fair here in London, probably about 30 years ago and he was amazing! Played all of the hits and made me smile! Then Chubby Checker came on and he wasn't very good so we left.
23. Arthur Alexander...Girl That Radiates That Charm....from his A Shot Of Rhythm and Soul LP on Ace Records that came out in the early 80's. Some of you may recognize this song as one that was covered by Teenage Head, original version came out in 1962. This whole LP is as good or better than the one track we played. Great early 60's soul sounds!
24. Gene Simmons....Goin' Back To Memphis...from the LP of the same name. 1962 recordings that still sound good and menacing all these years later.
25. Hipbone Slim and The Knee Tremblers...Square Guitar...from the CD of the same name from Dirty Water Records in the UK.
26. Light Bulb Alley....Long Time Coming...from The Sound OF Things LP on Ricochet Sound...had to fade this one out as we ran outta time.
Thanx for all of the phone-ins, emails, facebook comments etc!! And thanx for reading this far! Next week, more new stuff and probably some catl, Speaking Tongues and Soup Cans as all 3 bands are in town next weekend.
And don't forget about our big bash on Saturday Nov 5th at Brennan's Beer Bistro....The Hook Up, The Fine Print and The Reply...starts at 9:30PM and only $5 for 3 killer combos!!! Hope to see some of you out there!
