You're on to something there. That would be a riot to see & hear. Really would like to see someothing like that happen. "Hey Tina! Please read this & oblige us." Lieutenant Cheeseliver said:

Heck yeah it is.
You know how some of the legends sort of can't carry on that torch many years after their prime?
Despite not getting completely gaga over her 80's and 90's material, she still keeps a strong pace going head to head with the more mainstream sounding stuff at the time. Stuff like "We Don't Need Another Hero" or "What's Love Got To Do With It" is pretty listenable and doesn't really make me cringe like some of the output of the veterans.


yeah, you're right... Tina probably gets away with it cause she's a very classy lady with a voice that could melt concrete! I just wonder what she could do with a contemporary r&r band, like what Mary Weiss did with the Oblivians, y'know...just put her with a backing band that's got some decent taste, and away from those E-Street Band type bands she sings with on Oprah Winfrey and the like..

I'd love to see her do some stripped back early 60s southern soul type of thing...She's still got a great voice & looks amazing!!

A-thank-ya to everyone fer the tips...that MXR M182 or Bass Big Muff...too many options...now I just gotta find one a these bad boys used or on the cheap.

There are also some vintage bases with buil-in fuzz effect, for example Vox Astro 4(1967 made in England, i think the guy who owns it, got it on ebay, it travelled all the way from the owner in Mexico in non-assembled shape, and then he assembled it here on the spot) http://vintagerecords.narod.ru/BassVox.html here is a page about it(unfortunately in russian), http://vintagerecords.narod.ru/photoBassVoxAstro4.html - another photos and an audio sample of it's use in one of the songs by local r'n'b band Thunderbirds http://files.realmusic.ru/download/390205/thunderbirds_-_Bo_s_Fuzz_Bomb.mp3 We (The Cavestompers!) used a modern semi-acoustic bass Washburn AB-90(2humbuckers on it) which with some decent preamp and amps gave a natural light distorted fuzz sound, which we liked a lot. That's the story. Wipeout! said:

Thanx Branded and EEGAH fer the advice...

Never used a Fuzz Face on a bass...intriguin', may try

Never gotta a chance to drive a Maestro FuzzTone (an original would be my cherry creme, baby)...

Both would lose the direct bass signal I need to maintain I imagine ...so keep 'em suggestions comin', kids

Get a Bass Big Muff like The Cavestompers said. it's big and nasty.

If you're really into this take a look at - MXR Bass Innovations - try this one JIM DUNLOP MXR M182 El Grande Bass Fuzz or Big Muff Bass by Electro Harmonix, it should not lose your direct bass signal. Wipeout! said:

Use the new blue fuzz face, its silicon transistors, much darker and a very bassy tone, you dont lose the bottom end, in fact it gives you more. Wipeout! said:

I use a Maestro FuzzTone for bass. The only negative is that you may need to compensate and add some additional bass tone.

bass sounds good with a fuzz face

Hey hey hey GP gang!

I'm gearin' up (literally) fer the start of my new band which will entail sax, bass and drums only...

As the bass player, I really wanna killer fuzz sound ...something gnarly yet not makin' my bass sound too treble-ly...ya dig?

Also, if I go the pedal route, I needs something that will allow direct (aka un-effected) signal through in addition to the fuzzed out signal to my amp...gots to maintain a true-blue bass thump!

Any and all help/talk appreciated, 'natch

tsk! What good it is?!? It's Badass Badassess lowdown home, that's what! Welcome anyway...

There's some Billy Childish on there too

cheers for the heads up, thats really cool.

Here's my latest internet music obsession: WFMU's Free Music Archive. It's a huge library of free -- and legal -- downloads of cooperating independent artists. WFMU, that great station from Jersey City started the thing, but other stations and venues have contributed. Lots of the tracks -- which you can stream as well as download -- are live performances in WFMU's studio. Most of the artists here I've never heard of, but I'm quite familiar with some of them: Dengue Fever, Pierced Arrows (the new band from Dead Moon's Fred & Toody), Alan Vega, The New Bomb Turks, The Moaners (featuring Melissa Swingle of Trailer Bride), Edith Frost, Bobby Bare Jr., Xiu Xiu and more. One of the most interesting sections in the archive is the Old-Time/Historic section. Not only are there some great old recordings by the likes of Sophie Tucker (the Last of the Red Hot Mamas!) and Billy Murray, but there are some interesting new artists dabbling in the old styles. There's Al Duvall (who claims to have been in 1877, nudge nudge wink wink) who reminds me a lot of C.W. Stoneking. And best of all, there's Singing Sadie. When I first listened to her songs "Put Down The Carving Knife" and "Everyone in Town Wants You Dead" I thought it was from some bizarre 78s from the '30s. I later learned she's "the all singing all dancing queen of the burgeoning underground show tunes scene. " I've barely begun to wade through most of this treasure trove. Looking forward to diving in deeper.

I don't like The Zombies version very much.

Can anyone tell me who does the version of "Oh Yeah" that inspired the Dukes? I've been putting a Songs The Dukes Of Hamburg Taught Us list together and I'm not having any luck with that one.

Thanks.
But be careful, too much of this retarded exotic wailin' and shakin' podcast may drives you insane !!!
At least I hope so...
Back to the Twistin' Rumble comps : go, get 'em all and organize a twist contest down in your crappy street ! Square neighbors will probably hate you, they already do anyway, but you and your twistin' friends will have a really great time...before the cops arrive !

Thanks definately a great song, I'll try to get a feeling for that riff on the organ. Are there any organ players here in the group who started without any teacher/mentor?
