Bob Log III is my favorite.

Does anyone know anything about Eugene Chapburn?  I heard him once, along time ago.  He played an electric rake, and I need to hear it again.

Girl side : I liked what I heard from Molly Gene One Whoaman Band.

my band played with miss firecracker on the last tour shes so nice let us crash at her house

havent heard any of the others women but plan to check em out.

also on that tour played with evan mitchell one man band awesome and the name escapes me now but one of the dudes from knuckle drager has a real good one man band.

BOB LOG III, DEFINITIVELY!!

Bloodshot Bill, saw him in London with Heavy Trash. Top fella.

I like The Dollyrots and Selby Tiger.  Both have great lyrics too.

My old band ...The Speedies...

It was hearing 'Come on Kid' by kenny and the kasuals in 1985.

"I Had Too Much to Dream Last Night" by the Electric Prunes did it for me. I had always been fond of sixties rock, but I heard it on the radio one night in my teens and I was fascinated. I mentioned it at a drum shop I frequented, and the chop-worshipping salesman laughed about it, but I knew cool when I heard it, and started picking up individual Nuggets volumes when I could. I finally got the box set when it came out, and the rest was history.

sonics best rock n roll band of all time id say

something by :The Sonics

i think

still one of my fave bands

Yeah, that was really a good one too.

I was listening to Southern Culture on the Skids, Link Wray and maybe the Mono Men but the Woggles "Teen Dance Party" on estrus records really wound me up. Mad Dog 20/20, My Baby Likes to Bugaloo and Raining Teardrops got me focused.

That's definitely a rumor and one I never heard.  I saw them in San Francisco and in Portland last year and they were even better than they were in the 90s.  If you youtube Mummies Dante's you can find some of that performance.  the San francisco stuff is under Budget Rock 2009.

I think I'd give my left nut to see the Mummies live...But rumor has it that they don't put on as good a show anymore...I can't agree nor disagree on that, since I've never caught them live...

hard to say listening to oldies radio when i was a kid probably more than any one record
then i was into punk bands which alot of the stuff i liked was very garage rock influenced before i knew what that meant

i first became aware of the modern garage scene when i bought a Mummies lp "never been caught" because of the awesome cover from bullmoose music in brunswhick maine when i was 17 circa 1996. that was def a big linking record for me putting together rock n roll and punk n surf all while dressed like bad ass mummies and acting like they completely did not give a fuck. how do you not love the shit out of that?

Never Been Caught was my second favorite record of 1992.  Actually I liked it better in its Hangman version FUCK CDs, IT'S THE MUMMIES!  I bought both. and the "MUMMIES PLAY THEIR OWN RECORDS despite having all the 7 inches at that point.

I love "The Wayback Machine"! I've listened to quite a few episodes of it, and you do know that you can listen to a lot of them online? Kopper's got them archived...

I don't recall exactly what record it was but it was Kopper's radio show in St. Louis that got me hooked on Garage Punk. Thanks Kopper! I used to catch the second hour of the show every week.

A local rock station (now defunct) used to air his show, and I actually liked it for the most part. He played lots of good old and new garage, but he would also play stuff that wasn't garage...Not that it was that huge a deal, the good stuff far outweighed the shit that didn't belong on there. Definately the positive was the classic stuff he would play...

I was listening to Little Steven's Underground Garage with a friend and we heard a lot of old stuff and new stuff we had never heard before that sounded old (Hey...sounds like my podcast....). Well I heard ''Put The Clock Back On The Wall'' by The E-Types and I was hooked (Originally I actually thought they were a newer band haha). Except then, I didn't even know what I was hooked on until I read about The E-Types and then from there read about what exactly Garage was. I started downloading tons of songs by bands like The Chocolate Watchband and Electric Prunes (nuggets type bands) and eventually got the Nuggets Box Set. All downhill from there! It actually took over a year for me to get into the Revival stuff and new Garage Punk as a whole because I guess I was shy about it and didn't know what to think about it. Can't live without it now!

i think its better than the one before and good bad not evil. the sterile sound of the new record doesnt really annoy me, but somehow they sound like they cover themselves a lot.

My girlfriend's mom dropped by from Ireland.  She's 87 years old, but a former swing dancer and quite a hipster in and out of her time.  OMG!  What the hell do I play for cocktail music to this very cool older woman?!  Well this REALLY worked, she loved it!  http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2009/02/lux-and-ivys-favorites-mp3s.htmlThere may not be anyone that doesn't love this!

This is my drummer / bongo player.

Sorry John, the only Dino I know popped his head thru the roof of Fred Flintstone's car at the drive in!

Cool stuff! Love the baby blue Phantom & Really dig the red Hagstrom bass @ Barry, thanks for the compliment. I remember Glasgow it was freakin cold!!!! Do you know Dino?

Wow !!! Great super rockin' vacations in view for you Bob !!!
