HAPPY HALLOWEEN REPOST:  My very first rip for DU blog I specifically sent in to Mark U. a cassette rip from the very first DANZIG tour that I had got at the show. The rest I gathered recently from my files the first four releases before the black metal phase for this post.  This gave me a very good opportunity to organize quite a bit from the past like the Samhain and Misfits posts that I am leaving in place.  I added quite a few more bootlegs to the Misfits.  Then I picked out other artists that needed reposts and organizing so have at it!!!  A mega-super HALLOWEEN POST 2025,CHEERS!!! Through the millennium I was close friends with Raven Danzig who was a regular at least to 4P era big arena Danzig whereas I saw every Danzig regular Minneapolis’ First Ave shows U know Prince’s club at least one time after debut tour in like 2007 I wanna say but yeah she updates us on her private blogger that she recently left social media and has taken to classical music lately describing various Arias.

VA - UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD MPST by Wim Wenders CD 91 w THE ROMANTIC STRINGS ORCHESTRA - TILL THE END OF TIME 7LP 91


 I was a little short on Halloween stuff this year so I decided this was a scary enough theme in these two releases-one another Reader's Digest vinyl boxset to go with that ongoing theme and the other I discovered on a youtube/facebook reel that had a bunch of old artists covered by this blog in the past.  I remember as we collectively moved from the indoor clubs to the big outdoor festivals in the 90's, I always thought 1991 was a top year in music.  Artists featured:  Graeme Revell, Talking Heads, Julee Cruise, Neneh Cherry, Crime & The City Solution, Lou Reed, Can, R.E.M., Elvis Costello, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Patti Smith and Fred Smith, Depeche Mode, Jane Siberry with k.d. lang, T-Bone Burnett, Daniel Lanois and U2.

The Vampires' Sound Incorporation - Psychedelic Dance Party CD 69 w Vampyros Lesbos (Sexadelic Dance Party) CD -cc


COLLECTOR'S CHOICE:  As mentioned below, I pulled out a couple in this series out of alphabetical order to try to match the Halloween holiday on Friday.  These two releases kind of overlap but you probably all the songs on youtube for it as this one is long expired in the blogsphere and sound just as good as the 1969 might be from vinyl methinks.  Per Discogs:  An obscure German 1960's psychedelic exploitation band, the project of soundtrack composer Manfred Hübler, and notable for featuring Sigi Schwab, aptly playing a music of that eccentric Wolfgang Dauner Quintett "Oimels" style, yet so much more chic and clichéd, sometimes towards Okko's "Sitar & Electronics" realms.

HAPPY MONSTERS CD 75


15 WEEKS OF KID'S MUSIC CHRISTMAS:  Well with this many weeks in this mini-theme I was bound to cross over to other holidays like Halloween this week.  This was found on youtube (notice no "LP" in title) after I saw it on another kids music selection in this series that was also on Happy Records.

https://bestfile.io/en/o9e6gI0Uv6ayIC1/file   

Jackal - Awake CD 73 -cc


COLLECTOR'S CHOICE:  Going out of alphabetical order this week to grab a couple selections for this series with a Halloween bent.  Per Discogs:  Jackal was formed in 1969 by the Kellesis brothers (Chris on keyboards and Jack on bass) with high school friend Charlie Shannon on vocals. They filled out the ranks with several other members in their infancy while playing the B circuit around Toronto. They wrote some material while developing a progressive, psychedelic hard rock sound, and were seen by Art Snider one night in a bar, who quickly signed them to a management and recording deal. Snider, a native of Ottawa, was behind the record company Chateau at the end of the 1950s and founded in late '67.

With the band rounded out by guitarists Steve Hayward and Dave Bernard, and drummer Lois Mutton, they worked with producers Dan Goldberg and Bob Stright in the spring of '73. They became one of the first acts to record for Snider's new venture, Periwinkle Records, releasing their debut album Awake a few months later. The bulk of the writing on the eight tracks was done by the Kellesis brothers, with Hayward penning two himself - the tempo-changing flowery-acid trip Sunny Side of he Day and Lost In the World. Heavy in sound, the band was likened to early Deep Purple, Rory Gallagher, Budgie, and fellow Torontonians..The songs relied heavily on fuzz guitar effects mixed with a raspy delivery from Shannon, and often extended keyboard and organ solos front and centre. Other noteable cuts included How Time Has Flown, In the Heavens and the title track.

No singles were released, contrary to Snider's modus operandi - whose labels were renowned for churning out acts on a steady basis in the hope of landing 'that one big hit. But with Jackal's songs more often than not exceeding the usual three-minute frames to get any airplay, and with little money to fund promotions or tours, the album quickly disappeared and became a collector's obscurity. Within a year or so of its release, the band also drifted into oblivion, with the members picking up new gigs in different bands off and on, but eventually all got day jobs and left the business all together.

Not to be mixed up with Jackyl.

THE WORLD'S GREATEST OLD-TYME RADIO SHOWS #2464 tape - LIGHTS OUT


 This was the last in this series with a spooky kind of title and theme for Halloween this week  I have a bag full more but less than a year's worth for sure.  I missed the fold on this picture with the text so I will bring that in to work this week where I post and add to this page.  Episodes are:  Haunted Cell [July 20th, 1946] & Man In The Middle [August 25th, 1945].

The Mummies - F@#@$ CD's....It's The Mummies CD 92 w Never Been Caught CD 92 w Shitsville CDEP 90


 Needed to have this horror monster for my other Halloween posts this week.  Per Discogs:  The Mummies are an American garage punk band formed in San Bruno, California, in 1988. Exhibiting a raw and lo-fi sound, dubbed "budget rock", the Mummies' rebellious attitude and distinctive performance costumes exerted an influence on garage punk and garage rock revival acts later in the decade, as well as in the 1990s. Their recorded output was intentionally completed with poor, cheap equipment, including their first and only studio album Never Been Caught, which was released after the group's initial break-up. Since then, the Mummies have engaged in several reunion concerts and tours, including appearances in Europe and the US sporadically through to recent years.  Enjoy!

VA - COUNTRY MUSIC HALL OF FAME VOL. 10 2LP 70

REPOST Request and ADD ON:  This was an ace in the hole request as I was missing my old winrar file and had to make it again from the mp3 rip backup folder.  Per Discogs: 

Members: Gary Newby (vocals, guitar), Brian Bateman (guitar)

Stephen Hull (bass), Guy Keegan (drums, percussion).

Formed in 1984 in Wigan, UK.

First signed to Factory, where they released two singles and an album they wandered on to Virgin. After the takeover of Virgin by EMI, the band was dropped by the new label and disbanded subsequently in 1992.

After a hiatus Gary Newby carried on without any of the original members and released Dream Arcade in 1997 on his own Ether Records label. In 2016 the original band members reunited for a live tour celebrating the 30 year anniversary of their debut album. However in October 2019 they announced to end their reunion and go separate ways again. older and so then added the rest which are real good if you like the Smiths for instance.

TUESDAY'S CHILDREN various w CZAR - st CD 70 -cc


COLLECTOR'S CHOICE:  O.K. will need some help on this one.  I tried to add the Tuesday's Children CD from Rockasteria blogspot but my Switch file extractor expired and I couldn't open them on Windows 11 extractor or Winrar.  They were very old links but both files are zipped and included if someone can open them and leave a link in the comments I will renumber the songs and add.  As it stands, I got all the bonus tracks for the CZAR (which I learned on the youtube post is the same band and one of the top prog bands!!!) and for the Tuesday's Children I got most of the CD tracks on youtube at 320.  Last  of the C's for this series.

VA - COUNTRY & WESTERN SACRED SONGS (WITH STRINGS) LP 63


 Got another two point score this week like last week as this meets the new Country Comp. series as well as the Jesus Music series.  Last week it was kids music and Country Comp. for the two point score...I must be in the "Double Shot Dungeon" as our old KQRS AOR rock station used to have on Tuesdays with a full day of double shots or two by the same artist in a row and somehow you got into the 'Double Shot Dungeon' when you played along but I forget what that was actually.  Ha Ha...anyways this was a random grab from the big box of Country Comp.'s and pretty cool one at that!
