Oh what the Hell - White Stripes , Jon Spencer (Barring The Gibson Bros.) , Detroit Cobras , Nashville Pussy , Oblivians, Black Lips , Reigning Sound , Mummies , (POST - TEEN GARAGE) Greenhornes ,  FLAMING LIPS (80's to the present.) , Deadbolt , Billy Childish *, Cheater Slicks , and , God rest his soul , just the same , Jay Reatard , The Reatards , etc.. I liked one or two of his later songs , that's about it. 

* I bought my first Milkshakes record in '85 or '86. After tons of hype and about 100 records , he lost me . I could'nt even get in to see Thee Headcoats , and my friend's band , who brought in a lot of people themselves , got $100 to split three ways , for opening . I saw Buff Medways , thought they were awful.

"Dang me , dang me. They oughta take a rope and hang me". I don't totally hate all the bands I named. I just don't get it.

wow. I might add Richard and The Young Lions ,  The Leather Boy (Not to be confused with The Motorcycle Boy or that other band with the same name. .), THE C*NTS , The Waste Kings , Lithium Xmas , Third Bardo , Dirty Wurds , Johnny Legend , Jesse Hector , Brownsville Station , Eater , Destroy All Monsters , Los Teen Tops , Los Locos Del Ritmo , Los Camisas Negras , Slade , Third World War , Johnny Hallyday (Psych phase.) , The Pets (Venezuela) , Death (Detroit) ,  Purple Image , Shadows of Knight , Neanderthals , Five Americans , Charlie Feathers , Herbie Duncan , Three Souls in My Mind , Mickey Lee Lane , Bobby Lee Trammel , Andy Starr , Lurkers , Dr. Feelgood , Little Bob Story , (Count) Bishops , Cannibals , Kim Fowley , Orphan Egg , Blue Cheer  , Peyote Cowboys   , Nervous Eaters , Spiders/Nazz/Alice Cooper Group , anyway , lots of others. Thank you for compiling this list......

The Shitty Beatles rose from the ashes of Garage Echo , a worse than obscure Dallas Garage / Surf band. They stuck it out for a couple of years , doing sloppy Nuggets  , Elvis , and , yes , Beatle covers , along with a plethora of catchy and hilarious originals. They were over 30 and wore hornrim glasses years before that would get you laid. The local scene was ageist and Led Zeppelin  hair - ist. Even Horton Heat had to bust his ass to build a local following , being 27 , with hair slowly thinning . Key members , Jack Turlington and Cap'n Brewkid , joined up with French Acres (Late of Avant Garage confrontationalists , The Norvells , whose singer , Sally Norvell , later formed Congo Norvell with Kid Congo Powers. She is the reason The Shitty Beatles were mentioned in "Wayne's World".).

Wildfang's hard - to - find LP , produced by Paul Marotta of The Mirrors and The Styrenes , comes recommended. I found it peeping out of the front of a box of Gay Dance 12"s in a thrift store.

I had a similar thread here a few years ago with 9 pages full of nominations. 

And I think it should be in Tacoma. We could get some cheap real estate and they could use the tourism. Plus weed is legal in Washington now.

There should have been a big festival in Seattle for the 50TH Anniversary of " Louie , Louie" , but .....did'nt happen.

The time is ripe for someone to organize some kind of garage/rock 'n' roll festival in the Seattle/Tacoma area. It's been more than a decade since the last Garage Stomp. And hey, weed is legal in Washington now! 

Well, it depends on who's playing as well. Beat Bespoke is coming soon. March 28-31. Frowning Clouds and the Strypes are playing. The other bands don't really tickle my fancy (Corner Shop??). Purple Weekend is in November or December. I'm more partial to Spain anyway (seeing that I'm not welcome in Britain without a huge hassle). Let me know if you go to León I might be there this year.

Only festivals I can possibly go to this year are Le Beat Bespoke or Purple Weekend. Too busy to be able to take time off April-November, when the majority of festies happen. Still, I'm gunna try my best to make Ponderosa Stomp.
Any recommendations on which of the two to go to? Don't really want to dish out the cash to fly to Europe two times, but I'm lucky enough to to have family to stay with/reason to visit in Spain/Switzerland. Figure if I try for Le Beat, I can buy a cheap ticket to London (I hear March + April are cheapest to fly to Europe). On the flip side, I'm already pretty fluent in Spanish, y me voy a encantar un otra ves para practicar/otra lugar para conocer.

And who knows? Maybe I can scrounge the dough for both.

I was going to add "Flush The Fashion" to the thread on albums wih one good song.
But ,I like Alice's version of "Talk Talk", as well as "Clones (We're All)", but were there really as many Rock /Disco cro$$OVER HITS AS WE'VE BEEN TOLD. "Miss You " is'nt Disco , from where I stand ....They did do the "Disco" verson for the clubs. The album version was Disco ORIENTED , yes. The Stones' real Disco songs were "Dance" , "Emotional Rescue' , that lot. "Hot Stuff" was earlier and closer to Funk.  Of course , I could be dead wrong . I , unfortunately , saw Smashing Pumpkins for $3 , when they were starting out , and never would have been convinced they'd amount to anything , so , no , I've been wrong , before . Blondie had "Heart of Glass" , but did atone with "Dreamin'" and "One Way or Another". I guess I don't totally hate "Heart... " today , I think it's funny. Psuedo Giorgian Bubble Gum .....or did Moroder produce that , too ?

I thought "Turn Me Loose" by Loverboy was Donna Summer. I'm not kidding !

Ah hell yes!  That was a fun album.  A bit overcompressed, but cool songs.  "Clones" is the one that people sometimes remember, but it's a little bit polarizing with Alice fans.  They either dearly love it or really hate it.  I love it.  "Headlines" was nearly as cool.  And "Nuclear Infected" was pretty fun, too.  There are a few things on that album better left unplayed, though.  

Thanks to this discussion I've dusted off the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack.  It's all your fault.  Hope you're proud of yourselves.

Alice Cooper "Flush The Fashion" anyone?

Alice Cooper "Flush The Fashion" anyone?

It was around when I was in junior high though I guess on it's last legs (77-79), soon to be replaced by "new wave". I heard plenty of it on the radio, school dances etc, but was never moved enough to seek it out and own it, though my brother did give me Rod Stewart "Blondes Have More Fun" picture disc for my new turntable which was his "disco" album, as many other established acts did "disco' albums later to be followed by "new wave" albums (Alice Cooper "Flush The Fashion" anyone?) I was oblivious to it's origins from the gay club scene in NYC because by this time is was so homogenized and mainstream. But what I remember most from that period was being introduced to early Rap & 70's funk, the later which I guess was also part of the genisis of Disco. The school I went to was not diverse at all. Maybe 15 black kids total. My friend Robert Love was from Texas and from a world completely unlike mine. Never heard him play any disco, but he loved to dance and had the moves back then. Instead of Disco, he turned me onto Parliment, Bootsy Collins and also Curtis Blow (mostly by sneaking into his older brother's record collection when he wasn't home) and by turning me onto local radio station KDAY. But as far as Disco, it still really hasn't grown on me, not even as something campy, although I do laugh at that scene from the sitcom Malcom in the Middle when the dad is doing rollerdisco to that song "Rollercoaster" or was it "Funkytown". But I had no qualms cranking up D.O.A.'s song "Disco Sucks" (later to be reborn as New Wave Sucks) when I was turned on to it in 1980. Even that late in the game, TV disco dance shows like "Solid Gold" were still on the air.

Sorry, this was a pretty long winded answer just to say, naw, not my thing, there's too much good music I haven't heard yet and too little time to spend it listening to Disco.

I like some of the same things you listed just now, Dave, but back then I was a major hater of disco.  I was a working musician who suddenly wasn't working, as weren't most of my contemporaries, because the clubs could just put records on and the patrons were happy.  Why pay a band to play?  It made us very mad.  I refused to see Saturday Night Fever at the time.  Seen it since.  Not bad.  I can listen to enough disco these days to make a good 90 minute playlist, but the four-on-the-floor thing gets very old when there's nothing else making it stand out, and it still feels like a majority of the disco stuff was pretty slick and nondescript.  Then there are songs like "I Feel Love".  Niiice.  It just took me 30 years to get over the grudge.

Is there a page that has all of the comps to download?

Oh oh oh Buzzcocks-Love you more! :D

There is The White Stripes on The Simpsons.

http://youtu.be/RTIy6HaF5Lk

"Up Against The Wall" is a song I loved ages ago and somehow forgot about.  Thanks for the reminder.  Looks like I need to pick up another OhEx album.  

You are correct as regards GG doing "Up Against The Wall" off the fourth ((!)) Ohio Express album. I believe it is on the EP with "No Rules" "NYC Tonight" and "A Fuckup." I had no idea it was a cover until years later, when i picked up the "Mercy" album and was like...HEYYYYyyy!!!!

I think even GG Allin did "Up Against The Wall" by Ohio Express, when he was with the Jabbers. The JAMC were also indebted to bubblegum pop, just with more feedback (no, make that loads more feedback).

I'M AMAZED NO ONE HAS SAMPLED "I CAN FEEL YOUR HEARTBEAT" (THO MAYBE THEY HAVE. I TRY NOT TO FOLLOW STUFF THAT SUCKS. IT JUST FOLLOWS ME) , BUT , IT'S GOT THAT STONE COLD FUNK GUITAR (WAKKA TAKKA ! WAKKA TAKKA ! LOVE !LOVE ! CAN''T YOU FEEL MY HEARTBEAT? WAKKA TAKKA WAKKA TAKKA)......"CRAZY HORSES" HAS BEEN WIDELY COVERED , WITH GOOD REASON , IT'S THE SHIT !!!

TANK (NWOBHM band with Algy Ward , ex- Damned) , DEMENTED ARE GO , SENSATIONAL ALEX HARVEY BAND
 , AND EVEN SOME BAND ON WAX TRAX DID IT (BUT I DON'T FOLLOW STUFF THAT SUCKS. THE RECORD STORE WAS FANTASTIC , THE UNBELIEVABLY OVERRATED LABEL IS NOT.). I'm not a huge Partridge Family fan , but , I admit they had some good tunes. Even the REAL faux Partridge Family (Pre - David Cassidy and Shirley Jones involvement) are perfectly passable wanabee Cowsills Sunshine Pop.

 

DJ Johnson said:

 

Yep, Redd Kross did a cover of Crazy Horses when they were putting Third Eye together.  There's a release (probably unofficial) called Third Eye Demos that has the track.  I got an MP3 of the song off a website someone attached to Redd Kross was running way back when.  Love their covers.  Especially "Dancing Queen" and "Pretty Please Me".  

Bubblegum is my semi-guilty pleasure.  I was just the age they were aiming at when a lot of it first came out in 1969.  Still love The Archies and 1910 FGC (and even got to see them in concert opening for The Monkees, though who the hell knows who was actually in the "band" that night), Ohio Express, a lot of the one hit wonders and, most of all, The Cowsills.  Something about them always made me very happy.  And "Mr. Flynn" was a pretty great tune I still have to hear often.  I even like The Partridge Family, which makes a lot of people assume I wear a foil hat.  I know most of the stuff released by that faux band falls under the category of light pop or even easy listening, but there are some great gum tracks mixed in ("I Can Feel Your Heartbeat" being my fave).  I mix questionable stuff into my gum playlists, but to me it fits.  Stuff like Blondie, Bonnie Hayes & The Wild Combo, Go-Go's, etc.

I think "Crazy Horses" was also done by Redd Kross but I'm not sure.

 I want that....the jukebox...oh..and the album. vinyl. now....  

FIDLAR. Fuck It Dog, Life's A Risk.

It ain't often when ya see a band who practices what they preach. Luckily, ain't that hard if all you're trying to do is get fucked up and have a good time. This 4 piece out of LA is aggressive, sloppy, and fun as fuck. After several badass EPs (DUIDIY, No Waves/No Ass, Chinese Weed) these punks landed a LP with Mom & Pop records. From start to finish, the album is packed with chaotic anthems for every alcoholic who likes to raise hell. Songs like "Cheap Beer", (I. drink. cheap. beer. so. what. fuck. you.), "No Waves", and "Wake Bake Skate" beg to be played over and over again. My personal favorite is "5 to 9"; short and sweet. There's even a noisy rendition of the folk classic "Cocaine Blues" as a closer, rhyming couplets and all.

These Surf/Garage Punx may of had a beer too many, but fuck all if they can't still hold their own. Rock 'n roll ain't dead, just really drunk and kinda stoned. Be sure to pick up a 24 rack and this album on Jan 22. Don't be a dick and pirate leaks like me. These guys deserve it.
Check 'em out on bandcamp, or catch them live if you can. (I hear they're a blast)

It was our Christmas present to ourselves and we are really enjoying it so far.  More of a reference book than an actual straight read, but the articles and photos are great.

I don't know if they are "stoner rock." I've been told they sound better when stoned though. Explosions in the Sky are amazing.
