Castaways - liar liar, knickerbockers - lies, Swingin Medallions - Double Shot, Count 5 - psychotic reaction, Trashmen - Surfin Bird, Standells - Dirty Water, Electric Prunes - I had to much to dream. It can go on and on and on.

which songs do you feel are accepted garage standards (ie louie louie, gloria) and what do you feel should be? i'll say the mummies' "planet of the apes" and the outsiders' cover of "summertimes blues."

I have purchased the Groovie Goolies DVDs and can't wait to watch them with my daughter. Just in time for Halloween.  From Wikipedia: "In 2002 Lux Interior performed the voice of a character on SpongeBob SquarePants - the lead singer of an all-bird rock band called the Bird Brains.[7] SpongeBob voice Tom Kenny attended his memorial ceremony."

Wasn't Lux Interior in a Spongebob --- his neighbour was one of the artists ????

r has a bunch of great music for kids on shows and in between shows too. I saw this in between shows a while ago but just now found it on Youtube. Jack's big music show is another great show focusing on music. There is a great episode with Andrew bird singing in it, The characters also do funny things like play speed polka and swing jazz. when I was a kid i watched re runs of The Munsters and Gilligans island, I actually remember seeing the garage acts in some episodes. I always loved the theme to the Munsters. Don't forget the seek out the Halloween epsiode of Spongebob Squarepants where the ghastly ones play surf tunes! I actually found a CD single with all the tunes from that show. The ghastly ones also gave away the little snippets they played for scene changes on their website  a few years ago. So many  great syles of music have appeared on kids shows, wish I could find them all.

Ryksugan á Fullu!

Shin Ei Fuzz Wah. The last pedal you'll ever need son.

i should mention by obscure garage band i refer mainly to the back from the grave series mainly

im a 14 year old british kid looking to expand my gear ,i play goth infused garage punk ,chief influenses being :the mummies ,the horrors ,the gories ,the outsiders ,the sonics ,thee headcoats ,the stooges and any othe obscure gare group of the 60s and 80s as well as the strokes ,libertines and afore mentiond horrors.

my current setup is a 1960s avon sg copy witha schaller single coil in the middle position that i use for the trebly tone into a vox vt20+ set to model a fender tweed reverb with fuzz ,so id like suggestions for amps guitars and fuzz pedals aswell as the gear used by the above bands or just settings for my vox

thanks.:)

gotta be the b sus4 from pinball wizard ,though ill never ever use it in composition

i've got a vox valvetronix ,its not very garage but the vox ac30 and the varios fender models are immense ,ive set it up for  a fender tweed deluxe via a kikass dollop of 60s esq fuzz its an immense tone i call gutter fuzz:)

It would have to be the first time I heard Plan 9 - Dealing With The Dead.  Freakin' awesome and opened up another world to a kid from Kansas in NH for college in 1986.  The Lyres too.  Of course this took me to the roots and what can I say, I am still a Garage Punk these many many years later.  Garage rock and roll runs through my veins, brotha's and sista's.

Yeah, the Remains are great! Have you seen the documentary on them? I'm hopin' to eventually catch that soon...One of my fave tunes by them is "I Ain't Got You"...

That's part of it.  Of course, a lot of people also hated it because they just thought the music was horrible.  One friend of mine complained that he thought it had no soul to it.

That reminds me...one of the things I find amusing about "Saturday Night Fever" is that John Travolta and his little gang come across as so tough and macho, and they're all rather racist and homophobic, and yet they dance to music comes from both black and gay subculture.  Go figure.  Another funny moment was in the movie "Detroit Rock City," in which those kids on their way to a KISS concert in 1978 have a run-in with a couple of macho disco guys, and the KISS kids beat them up and put KISS make-up on them, and once disco guy says to the other, "You got the fag make-up on."  I wonder if any disco fans who were like that back then ever noticed the irony.

The Defibulators came here a couple months back, and I missed them as well...Glad you liked this episode, though!

Bitchen! Hisaw's been on my radio show 2 or 3 times. He's in Austin now but originally comes from Las Cruces, NM.

The Defibulators is one of my favorite country bands these days. They played here in Santa Fe a few months ago but I somehow managed to miss them/

I'm digging Glambilly too.
