5. Richard Hell and The Voidoids….Destiny Street…from the LP of the same name from 1982. Just finished reading the updated version of From The Velvets To The Voidoids, The Birth Of American Punk Rock by Clinton Heylin and Richard Hell plays a pretty big part in the beginnings of the NYC punk scene. The book is a great read if you’re into the early and pre-punk scene and will surely introduce you to some music you’re overlooked.
6. The Thing From Outer Space….The Thing From Outer Space from their recent CD and they have a gig next Saturday at SOHO along with….
7. King Beez….Rumble Bee….from a recent demo and from the Toronto area.

9. Link Wray….Big City After Dark….from the Norton LP of the same name.
10. Deathdrive…..Deathdrive….from a recent demo and from Montreal.
11. UIC….Honest Can’t Survive…..a demo that Dave Dysart brought down when he was onair a couple weeks back, the day before the UIC reunion at Call The Office.

17. Ohio Express…. Down At Lulu’s….from a Greatest Hits CD and from 1968.
18. Ohio Express….Yummy Yummy Yummy….as above and one of my fave songs as a kid. This and similar tunes may have permanently warped my musical taste.
19. Blue Peter….Neon Girls….from the Radio Silence LP from 1980 and on Ready Records. Toronto combo that played London many times back then.
20. Steve Blimkie and the Reason….It Only Happened Twice….from his debut LP, also on Ready Records.

32. Magic Christian….Run and Hide….from the Evolve CD from 2008 and features Flamin’ Groovies Cyril Jordan on guitar.
33. 905s….Sight and Sound….from the Shake Down CD from 2015.

Anybody seen the Radio Birdman documentary?  Reviews?

becouse of this fukking video

Iceland still rocks, there are no fuckin elves. Funk tourists and fuck everybody that plays music in Iceland.

I FOUND ALVIN STARDUST'S FIRST UK ALBUM , RECENTLY. I've always liked what little I'd heard , but , apart from a couple of singles , I've never seen anything turn up. In fact , I already found a Shane Fenton (Stardust's previous hit venture in the 60's , where he assumed the identity of his band's previous frontman , who had died suddenly . ) CD comp, years earlier.  The Stardust LP is surprisingly good , at times ,           T Rex/Slade good. His vocal style owes a lot to Gene Vincent and Vince Taylor.    In fact , so did his stage personna.  So , if you like the Chinnichap/Mike Leander sound , and are at all intrigued by Glam's more than casual flirtations with Rockabilly , seek him out.
