Excellent version by Ricky Nelson. I’ve never heard it before. Thanks for the link! It sure sounds like a blueprint/inspiration for the Kinks’ take.
Agreed. Although the music played is timeless – so not exclusively for newbies. Also, I swear I’ve heard “John Rock & Roll Sinclair” played on the station before. If not, it certainly should have been…
Yeah, I’ve heard the Elvis version. Scotty Moore’s instrumental version too. They both sound more rockabilly. The Kinks' arrangement seems different to me. Maybe they just cranked up the fuzz. This version seems to be the standard other acts have ...
This info is from a few weeks ago, so maybe it's old news to most here - but living under a rock, it's new to me. HBO is developing a show loosely based on Andrew Loog Oldham's "Stoned" and "2Stoned": http://www.variety.com/article/VR1118007324.ht...
Agreed.
The only Link Wray that seems to qualify in any way is Hidden Charms - which is neither an instrumental, nor does it feature Wolfman Jack. It does however showcase Link doing his best Howlin’ Wolf impression. You can throw this track into...
Good points Rod. To be honest, I don’t listen to the syndicated show all that often, but I agree that a guest host is preferable to a recycled show. I also think there is a degree of truth in your “favoritism” comment. Who knows what goes on in se...
The Detroit scene didn't really take off until the Beatles hit, but there were certainly a few noteworthy acts, including:
- The Del Tinos (Cub Koda),
- The Lourds (Ted Nugent)
- Billy Lee & The Rivieras (Mitch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels)
Certainly the Southern California surf scene, with the Beach Boys, Challengers, Chantays, Surfaris, etc.
Thanks for your thoughts Rockin Rod Strychnine. I certainly respect a well thought out reply. Perhaps you’re correct on all of your points. I personally don’t see much of a difference in the frequency of the stuff he plays now from the labels you ...
I just don’t understand the compulsion by some to blast Little Steven around here. Perhaps it’s human nature to cast aspersions at our neighbors? Hell, I recently read a comment from a Hound blog reader taking a shot at the GaragePunk Hideout. Tha...
Another movie of note is “That Thing You Do!”. It’s not from the 60’s, but from 1996. It’s written-by, directed-by and stars Tom Hanks, about a 60’s one-hit-wonder group called the Wonders. Great music send-ups of various 60's styles - from pop, t...
Here are some others:
- “Cool Ones” – With a Hullabaloo/SHINDIG type show called Whizbam, and features The Leaves and The Bantams.
- “Wild In The Streets” – Gives us the fictitious Max Frost & The Troopers.
- “Head” – The Monkees full-length psyc...
There are a couple Lost Souls tracks, along with a bunch of other Denny Carleton stuff, compiled on this: http://www.amazon.com/Retro/dp/B0014HUJGI/ref=dm_cd_album_lnk?ie=UTF8&qid=1250785909&sr=1-1
I have copies of the two Lost Souls songs, but t...

For anyone from Western PA or NE Ohio who's interested at all, I've just started up yet another Ning network to waste your time with. It's called "Penn-Ohio Underground", and it's basically there for bands, local mom 'n pop businesses, and even no...
