On Me First and the Gimme Gimme's cover of Elenor, they intro into the song with the intro to London Calling. Those guys crack me up. | ||

sorry, i think the bobby fuller four version sounds whimpy and anemic compared to the clash cover | ||

I still have a Goose Lake handout framed in one of the bedrooms. There are so many bands listed, I cannot remember all of them......but it does say the Stooges.....Mountain.....Faces , and all sorts of stuff about doing things "for the people"! | ||

Dude, the Clash ruined that song. Oh, and Barry White played drums on the Fuller version. Yes, thee Barry White. Do You Remember Rock N Roll Radio is one their best songs (Ramones). Beat on the Brat is pretty good too. | ||

The stray cats do a pretty good I Fought The Law. I typically skip the Clash version, I've just heard that song too many times in my life to care. I'm somewhat bummed The Clash's version of Pressure Drop is in that car commercial. Is that song originally by The Specials, or did someone do it before them? | ||

Manu Chao's new disc: Radio Bambolina. Not as fresh as his previous work, but still great. Cafe Tacuba's new one: Sino. A terrible dissapointment. PJ Harvey's new CD is not worth listening to either. Skalpel (Polish JazzElectronica) Just saw Anton Corbijn's movie about Ian Curtis (Control- go see it) and that has me digging out my old Joy Division stuff. And as always, Sonic Youth. Going to see the movie about Joe Strummer this weekend, which will probably lead to listening to more Joe Strummer... | ||

I'd like to find some old-style, dirty rockabilly/country music, like these guys. http://cdbaby.com/cd/inghamcr They were from lansing, very fun. Any suggestions? | ||

ok, I listened to the clips, they remind me of the Waco Brothers. Try them or get one of the Bloodshot record samplers and see who you like. | ||
Johnlodge Member Username: Johnlodge Post Number: 3676 Registered: 10-2003 |
Well, they don't... And though I LOVE the old stuff, I'd really like something with a little more edge. Think Exile on Main Street grittiness and rockiness meets Waylon and Johnny. | ||

I just listened to some Waco Brothers on iTunes. Not bad, but a bit tame. I'm not convinced they might suddenly break a bottle over someone's head in a bar brawl. | ||

Does anyone know who wrote these lyrics? : "I get tears in my ears While lyin' on my back, in my bed, While I cry over you." I remember hearing this on Hee Haw many years ago. | ||

Locally, try the Orbitsuns, or go to Yep Roc Records on the web and listen to some Dave Alvin or Rev. Horton Heat or Big Sandy and the Fly Rite Boys. | ||

I already have everything the Rev has done, and I've heard the Orbitsuns. I'll check out those others, thanks. | ||

Here's one of my faves Johnlodge from the "no longer alive" category. Listen to the ones with "boogie" in the title. I think these guys practically invented rockabilly. http://wm01.allmusic.com/cg/am g.dll?p=amg&token=ADFEAEE4721B DF46AF7120D4993656C2E725D210DF 4BF58150234558C0B72446830473F2 45E9D8CCAEFB73AB7BAFFF29E85B0E D9C9E85CF9DA764C40&sql=10:a9fr xqtgld6e | ||
