Ska came from R&B, jazz and boogie woogie, this song's all the evidence you need. Got anymore Jamaican jazz & R&B?

I'm not much on reggae but I really dig the trad ska/bluebeat/rocksteady stuff from the early 60s...slowly realizin' I dig most, if not all, music made from the early 60s (i.e. surf, vocal groups, pop, r'n'r, ska,...the list goes on baby)

Check out this gem, from 1951 (boogie woogie with the ska upbeats!):

really love this one

Thanks dude! Yeah I found that 7" and I did cut a lil rug! Know what you mean though, about the Hollywood sinners song- it's kind of unexciting though it sounds like it should be- or something.

Meanwhile, I found a few other tracks of the HW Sinners that I enjoyed- like "wonderful feeling" on We Won't Change. I also ended up stumbling apron the Revellions "Up to you"- Decent stuff right there

The Urges Theme on their Dirty Water 7" is pretty dark and dancey. I'm not too keen on the Hollywood Sinner's song on the other side though. It's a bit sort of... tame? But trying to sound wild? I dunno, maybe it's just because the studio's never a good place to go wild.

But I digress. Os Haxixins for sure. Twin Guns for maybe. Wau Y Los Arrrghs!'s song Carerra Especial is real real real good. It's on Slovenly, and speaking of Slovenly, JC Satan have a few good dark stompy songs, but they're peppered in amongst some forgettable echofests. That's their first LP anyways. Haven't heard the new one yet.

My band The Violent SHifters are all gearheads/bikers with songs about cars, bikes, semi trucks,steam trains,killing, fighting and fucking!

Here is an interview that features our song "Hot Rod Killing Machine" We are working on a Garage Punk page and are on Facebook and Reverb Nation for now!

Every song I've ever liked has gone into this bowl, and every three weeks I draw them out one-by-one and play them for you in no particular order. A mix of everything and anything I like, no matter what genre, era, style or year of release...if I like it, then I'll play it! No repeats of the same song ever! Tune in tonight (Friday) at 10pm EST for the 106th installment of The Eggman Collection and hear bands and artists like: Matching Mole, Los Vidrios Quebrados, High Tide, The Rock Shop, The Beatles, The Gods, Jon, Faine Jade, The Yo Yo's, Eclection, Them, Leonard Cohen, John Cale, Kensington Market, The Flame, The Zombies, Funkadelic, Spontaneous Combustion, Saint Just, and many many others!!!

I can only find Gulcher releasing CD's, not vinyl, or Hoosier Hysteria. I don't believe it was them, but thanks.

Was it Gulcher Records? They've put out a bunch of Gizmos stuff (great shit, too!). But I can't find a website for 'em anymore...

If you're not in favor of airing your grievances publicly you can always just DM me.

My favourite thing is actually not the podcasts, I rarely listen to them. I am always impressed when I do, but it's always a question of time with me, and I just don't have the free time nowadays...  My favourite thing is however, the amount of people that post on here that are NOT from North America.  I live in Atlantic Canada, and more specifically a fairly culture-less part of the east coast.  So to read the thoughts and opinions of people that are based so far away is awlays of interest to me.

 

I do have a least favourite thing about this place, but as it is a free service and the good greatly out weighs the bad ( more of a slight greivence really ) I feel it would be looking a gift horse in the mouth to complain.  

 

Blah blah blah,

Ah, well you're always welcome to start one of your own! ;)

AFTER you get done listening to our latest shows on GaragePunk Pirate Radio, you should treat yourself to the Goner Records Radio stream on eMusic:

And help support one of the greatest rock'n'roll record labels around. :)

Cheers,

I've heard that about him, very cool...It would be very interesting to hear his take on your song "How 'Bout I Slap Your Shit"!
