Now here's a Goth band just right for the holiday...in fact they are reuniting to play for the locals at the Whiskey Junction on October 30th! Always enjoyed their shows and be sure to check out the earlier band from the eighties on Youtube that I would love to find some LP's for, here is the link:

Rostok Vampires

Well I found another file for these guys but no labels at all so I guess I'll post it to see if anybody knows...it's not one of the previously posted.

Some WAV files of Movie Quotes from the Old Days of Internet

Here is a fun one that may or may not apply to the upcoming holiday next week. Back when Windows 3.1 took forever to upload a file, there were short movie quotes on WAV files.

Maggot Sandwich - Get Off The Stage LP

REPOST Request: Now this is the kind of punk like ZERO DEFEX with frantic quick shouted lyrics...yes I think the neighbors enjoyed listening to this one as much as I did! I left up Mark Underground's original posts like I will do for all his since he is the founder and you can kind of see how the blog progressed in his eyes. He posted the 7's by this local for him at the time Florida band and then got his friend to send this in. My copy is from later from somewhere I found it.

VA - Sid And Nancy Sndtrk LP 86

Many key compilations this week starting out with this classic that I KNOW CORE MEMBERS WILL ENJOY if they are still around or just too busy parenting. Includes: Joe Strummer, The Pogues, Steve Jones, Pray For Rain, Circle Jerks (Yes!!!), John Cale and Gary Oldman's intense songs from the movie. I recommend this link for the REAL tragic death story of Sid:

VA Just A Mish Mash LP 87

WELL, you may say, this blog veers all over the place but per another compilation right below post, I have found my validation enough to say NOT! This compilation is a classic gracefully addressing this issue and even has recent new to blog artist, Marc Riley and (the Creepers). If you like the music you can listen to the man weekday night's on his BBC 6 music radio show from 7pm UK time. More than worth a listen.
Also another big Manchester band up there with Stone Roses called, It's Immaterial and posted here is looking for crowdfunding help to finance their lost third album On pledgemusic.com
Artists featured: The Weeds, Janitors, The Waterfoot Dandy, Membranes, The Heart Throbs, Yeah Yeah Noh, Zor Gabor, The Creepers, Whipcrackaway, June Brides, Implied Consent, Rote Kapelle, Frank Sidebottom, Gaye Bykers On Acid. http://www32.zippyshare.com/v/1zjOsEJk/file.html

VA K-Tel Midnight Hustle LP 78

I was utterly flabbergasted and completely taken aback with this release!!! I had found it 'the missing link' for K-Tel's American Hit Parade music of the seventies from pre-disco year of stalemate 1978 when D.O.A. was forming with their "Disco Sucks" 7. You see it was printed in U.K. and has all of our favorite 'hit' bands along with those classic K-Tel artists/tunes I grew up listening to in my mom's car on errands, etc. I am sure this helped spawn 2nd wave Ska music on the Two Tone label with black and white racial unity and then the continuing Dancehall to follow that whole side of things next to punk coming from the bar band scene previously mentioned from 1975 when soul music in the USA had matured. Amazing find at my sponsor store on the right. Here are the artists you will know and love about half: The Motors, City Boy, Blondie, Darts, Flash and the Pan, Boomtown Rats, Status Quo, Herbie Hancock, Boney M (huge poster in side everything MINT!), Exile (remember "Kiss You All Over" great K-tel hit!!!), HI-TENSION (I love this band but don't have the cool funky vinyl anymore somehow..did you know it was a 'British Hustle!!! I collect Van McCoy!), Frankie Miller, The Dooleys, ABBA (Yes!!), BILBO, 10 CC (WOW key song Dreadlock Holiday!), Clout, Candidate and saving the biggest surprise for me and new target for collection, the late great IAN DURY in his band (KILBURN AND THE HIGH ROADS)!! Yes!!! Yes!!! Yes!!! (to quote Legs McNeil from Facebook and Punk Magazine).

VA - Laughing At The Ground 7 82 Propeller Product No. 6

This early Boston punk 7 comp. series (any GOT more??) kind of 'stuck' to my Agent Orange 7's when I was pulling them out so I thought I would give it a fresh rip. The song 'Babble' is a cover by famous Boston band ala Husker Du (named after a "Do You Remember" board game) named 'Moving Targets' who have finally got some recognition. I also love the Boston bands the Flies (Bob Dylan vocals upped several notches), Dogmatics (MTV O.D. classic song), Classic Ruins and the Velvet Underground built up their following there...great town!

The Creeps - Enjoy The Creeps LP

A great band in the neo-paisley revival of the 80's with Nomads, Shoutless and the Voxx record label with USA bands like Rain Parade, The Outnumbered, The Vipers, etc. etc. Quite interesting the going's on in Sweden right now. I don't think anybody is that stupid to believe the old tricks (land formations of events in the USA in a straight line or forest circles that kind of thing, destroying the water and recking the indigenious connections here in the USA with the Indians) that were stolen from the Druids during that genocide migration long ago. Counting on the UN at the Hague this week to start the ball rolling against these Wall Street multi-death corporations!!!

LEE ANDREWS AND THE HEARTS - Gotham Recording Sessions LP

Another rare one but 50's soul this time who I got on the same EBAY auction with the Edward's Generation 70's soul platter from a few weeks ago over 20 years ago when I was going there more.
Outstanding example as I love those tricky vocals or just vocals of any kind.
http://www32.zippyshare.com/v/tYq9iRhd/file.html

Don't Mean Maybe - Live Sample LP

Another absolute gem from the Southern USA (defunct??) Dr. Dream record label. However these guys are from Orange, CA.
http://www32.zippyshare.com/v/FRa9yhVy/file.html

AGENT ORANGE - 7s 79 - 82

Well I found the early Pointed Sticks 7 a few weeks ago from 1979 so it got me to pump this favorite around the same time frame more or less in the rotation as I got the CD long ago but I think they left out a few words on the America song...

THE SICILIAN VESPERS - st LP 88

REPOST Request: Baccala!! Baccala!! I loved hearing this opening song again!!! I didn't think anyone could come close to the classic Doc Dart vocal style but here is a band of two brothers very close to the latter period Doc or perhaps Deformo .
http://www21.zippyshare.com/v/UX0LFGjD/file.html

VA - Wargasm LP 82

REPOST Request: Did you know Jesus was black? Cause of more wars than any other thing, also there were tall blue-eyed Nordic E.T.s that were also black? First humans were the black nubians to block the sun and the clovis genome is over 12000 years??My friend posted a Fox clip with a guy talking about it but couldn't get link anymore, here is his title blurb:

My brother from another mother went deep explaining the greatest 'white' washing of all that led to international racial biases, millions of deaths and oppression around the world through colonization of indigenous peoples under the banner of christianity

I didn't rip this but it includes: Angelic Upstarts, Flux of Pink Indians, Captain Sensible, The Danse Society, Dead Kennedys, Infa Riot, Mau Maus (U.K.), Poison Girls, Rat Scabies, The System (U.K.) and Canker Opera.

FOOD FOR FEET - st EP 89

This one's from the Dr. Dream label in the South USA, home of Swamp Zombies, Just about every record is good on this label as well as Capricorn in the South or say Twin Tone in the North USA who are digitizing them all now! http://www23.zippyshare.com/v/gOjBVzXd/file.html

CHUCK BROWN AND THE SOUL SEARCHERS - Bustin' Loose LP 79

Here we have a newer buy for me and the date proves it at least to me. You see, I was buying any soul I could find when records were going for a quarter a piece and then fifty cents. So my rule of thumb was any in what I called the magic period of "1970 to 1974". However as you can see by the awesome favorites of soul I started ripping a few weeks ago with a good method finally, the core platters I dig were usually closer to 1975 before it really got big and morphed into disco and funk!
You might also draw a parallel to punk with Little Bob Story, Ramones, Herman Brood, Dr. Feelgood with the bar band movement of 1975 before the punk explosion. Don't forget MC5 60's communes. I have since learned that this band was a major influence for the Washington D.C. go-go scene.

BURT BACHARACH - What's New Pussycat LP 65

Say what?? You might say. Well, I rip VHS to MP4 from "God's Own" Goodwill Stores and really liked this movie the other day and so, right after I saw this soundtrack and bought it cheap so there!

DR. BYRDS AND MR. HYDE - st LP

Had never heard of these guys thinking they must have been way way way hidden out in the country somewhere back in the 60's just like their hard to find platter, but listening again I KNOW I've heard some of these songs SOMEWHERE in movies, in American culture somewhere..
http://www62.zippyshare.com/v/2vcfm4qQ/file.html

THE EDWARD - Jamming With Edward LP 72

Nicky Hopkins...wasn't that dude in Hawkwind or something?? I've heard of Ry Cooder for blues. It seems the big 60's scensters in rock and soul had some vital connections? Remember my first Soul category posts a couple weeks ago included San Francisco's biggest band called "THE EDWARD'S GENERATION"? Remember also the Rolling Stones dabbled in blues as I had posted before with a band called "Mick Jagger and the Red Devils"? .
http://www62.zippyshare.com/v/pLjTsdFp/file.html

THINK TREE - EP 89 w EP 90

Another great band from Boston!! They sure don't deal with things with a pittance in my book!

I left a few out this week but got 'er done last night and in the morning.

EMPEROR - st LP 77

Got to see the Emperor's palace in Japan with a marathon running outside. Since I'm talking Far East Asian culture, Thailand whose well respected leader just died after a peaceful 70 year rule (my condolences) is neutral due to their location and take very good pictures I might add! Chinese are good fact checkers.
