The Lyres "Shitkickers" 1995

...This lineup played shows in North America and Europe, while in 1988 they also recorded a version of Love's "Signed D.C." for an Arthur Lee tribute album, with Judd Williams taking over on drums...
...In 1989, Conolly decided he'd grown tired of Boston, and moved to San Diego, California. On the West Coast, Conolly assembled a new edition of Lyres with three members of the group the Nashville Ramblers, guitarist Carl Rusk, bassist Tom Ward, and drummer Ron Silva. By 1991, Conolly had returned to Boston, and he re-formed Lyres with three former members of the group -- Ricky Carmel on guitar, Rick Coraccio on bass, and Paul Murphy on drums. This edition of the group cut the 1993 album Happy Now, which was released by Boston's Taang! label, who had previously released an odds-and-ends EP, Nobody but Lyres, in 1992... to be continued - by Mark Deming

"AFRODESIAC JAZZ" A New Kind Of Mambo Vol. 30

"It was an atmosphere in which a Cuban step could fuse with a pseudo Middle-Eastern 'Salome Dance' and race mixing added spice to the rowdier late night joints…
...The whole point of the dance craze was that ,to an ever increasing degree,the professionals and aristocracy were on the sidelines.Anyone who wanted to see the latest styles at their wildest and best had to seek them out among young,working class couples dancing for their own pleasure."-Elijah Wald on the Barbary Coast ragtime scene of the early 20th century.
This Mildred Bailey track brings to mind Charlie "Redskin Rhumba" Barnet's account of his time in Havana 1935 : "I couldn't work as a musician in Cuba,so I became a kind of gigolo.Cruise ships would arrive regularly in Havana and there were lonely women looking for thrills in a foreign country.My headquarters was Sloppy Joes,a popular bar all the tourists visited.For a fee,I would take the women to all the nightspots,as well as to sex shows if they wished. I was able to make pretty good time with some of them... Havana was a wide open town then and you could get anything you wanted."

The Prisoners "Rare and Unissued" 1988 + "Shine On Me" 1997 - 7"/45rpm

The Prisoners pre-empted the visceral energy of the Hives and the White Stripes and anticipated the baggy shuffle of the Charlatans and the Inspiral Carpets. Lead singer Graham Day's scorching Hendrix-influenced guitar riffs and organist James Taylor's hypnotising Hammond whirls and irresistible go go rhythms not only changed my life but far more influential music types too. - By Lois Wilson
...Ironically May 1986 saw the Prisoners at their busiest and best live. The band landed the support for the UK leg the Ramones tour, thirteen dates that took the band to the biggest venues they had played to date. In June the bands gruelling live schedule continued with nineteen dates in their own right including two nights in Madrid.
Sadly the stress began to take its toll. Squabbles with Stiff records over lack of artistic control and the lack of mainstream success finally started to manifest itself within the band, with arguments over such trivial matters as the loudness of guitar versus the organ at gigs. Their disregard for the music industry and Stiff Records in particular was all but evident in one of the last two tracks the band recorded in late August (‘Pop star party’) having already decided to split. When the band tried to retrieve the master-tapes of the two songs from the safe in Stiff’s offices the tape snapped in the ensuing tug of war!! Both ‘Pop star party’ and ‘Happiness for once’ both subsequently turned up on Hangman’s 1988 ‘Rare and Unissued’ retrospective LP, with the break in the master-tape on ‘Pop star party’ clearly audible!!
The band played their penultimate gig at the Fulham Greyhound on the 5th of September and officially split-up on the 16th of September, fulfilling the commitment of a previous booking at the 100 Club on London’s Oxford street two days later. - from:
http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Club/3042/history.html
If you can ever find a copy of the Prisoners "Rare and Unissued" on Hangman records, it's worth it - just for the liner notes! The sound quality varies but the content is killer.
The running theme through the liner notes is that the Prisoners were never very happy with their recorded output, due to the constant meddling of the record companies they were dealing with. That is why there is such a huge discrepancy between the crappy "style council" cuts of the studio recordings, and the completely intense, soulful and wigged-out sound that comes through on their live recordings (I know there are at least two live split LP's they did with Thhe Milkshakes)...
The Prisoners:
Graham Day (vocals and guitar), Jamie/James Taylor (hammond organ), Allan Crockford (bass) and Johnny Symons (drums).

The Prisoners "In From The Cold" 1986 + "Whenever I'm Gone" 1986 - 7"/45rpm

"The Prisoners spearheaded an early '80s Medway garage scene..."
You love THE SOLARFLARES?? Well..listen to this!! Of course..most of you know THE PRISONERS, but to those, who are new to this band, just listen to my words: This band was one of the best Mod & 80's Revival bands ever! Their sound was something like mixing up 6t's garagepunk with Soul & Psychedelic Pop! Incl. the young & energetic Graham Day!! their 1986 Album for Stiff Records & includes such classics as "the more that I teach you" & one of the best ballads EVER "mourn my health"! - from soundflat

At their peak, a truly great live band. This 45 dates from their later mod revival phase and was one of the few releases on Countdown, a short-lived subsidiary of Stiff. A few months later the band had split up. And strangely, "Promised Land" bears a striking resemblance to "You Really Got Me". - phildil

The Solarflares "Psychedelic Tantrum" 1999

How do you review the Solarflares without mentioning The Prisoners? Answer? You don`t! Crockford and Day are still out there playing the same well crafted, 60s tinged songs with the raw energy that puts most of today`s scene to shame…
...Highlights? In truth there isn`t a bad song on here, with the added bonus of James Taylor`s Hammond on the excellent final track, "Hold Your Head Up". And if there`s one complaint, it`s that there isn`t more of it. Oh well, until there`s another Prisoners reunion, this will do just fine! - Reviewed by David Walker

Los Ultraman "Saicoreverberante" 2011

Ultraman, the famous protagonist of Japanese television was the name that some young people from Uruguay decided to use to name their surf band…
...You also have to add your fondness for Mexican wrestling, especially for the Blue Demon fighter and his taste for old horror and science fiction movies.
At the beginning of the year they gave us a preview of their work with 2 free EP's that they released but now it is time to listen to their first LP that is again free and can be downloaded from its official page although very soon they will also have a physical version in vinyl.
Apart from their own themes, they also included some covers such as the mega-known "Walk Don't Run" by The Ventures, "Our Favorite Matian" by Bobby Fuller, "I'm the Wolfman" by Round Robbin, "Wine Spoo-dee-o-" dee "by Sticks Mcghee and" Amazon Sound "by Los Mirlos.
All versions with the reverb to the fullest and assimilating quite well the original sound of the Californian surf of the 60s but now printing a dose of strength and speed.
They also repeated songs from their first EP's but now they were recorded again to give them a different finish, as in the case of "Horror Beach" which now has a half-song theremin.
So here you have one of the new faces of South American surfing who do not agree to make good songs, they also give them away.

The Lyres "Happy Now..." 1993

...By January 1983, that version of Lyres was history (Greenberg would go on to Barrence Whitfield & the Savages while Mike Lewis would play in an early edition of Yo La Tengo), and Dan McCormack came aboard to play guitar, while the initial rhythm section of Rick Coraccio and Paul Murphy returned to the fold...
...These four musicians would record the first full-length Lyres album, 1984's On Fyre, a powerful set that featured five original tunes and five covers, with the band sounding solid enough that it was hard to tell which tunes were which. The album earned great press and good sales for an indie release, and this lineup of the group stayed together until the dawn of 1986, a long run by Lyres standards... to be continued - by Mark Deming

"CAMEL WALK" A New Kind Of Mambo Vol. 28

Mambo is a Latin dance of Cuba which was developed in the 1940s when the music genre of the same name became popular throughout Latin America…
...The original ballroom dance which emerged in Cuba and Mexico was related to the danzón, albeit faster and less rigid. In the United States, it replaced rhumba as the most fashionable Latin dance. Later on, with the advent of salsa and its more sophisticated dance, a new type of mambo dance including breaking steps was popularized in New York. This form received the name of "salsa on 2", "mambo on 2" or "modern mambo". - wiki

The Prisoners "The Last Fourfathers" 1985

Third album from the much loved (and criminally overlooked) Prisoners and it's a scorcher...every track worth the purchase price alone. Indeed, even if you already have this album the extra tracks (8 in total, 6 previously unissued demos and 2 blistering live tracks) not only make this a must buy but help in the 'trying not to wear my vinyl out' stakes too! - By Headcoatson "Action... Time... Vision!" (Swansea United Kingdom)
At long last the Prisoners back catalogue has been released on CD. Not quite the same as vinyl but with the extra tracks a definite must! This was the most elusive of the four albums and is undoubtedly the best. The raw guitar backed by the Hammond is pure 60's type energy. The whole album is a melting pot of Small Faces crossed with Deep Purple crossed with late 60's American Garage. The Prisoners always had a unique sound which although their influences are obvious, there has never been another band which has had the same ability to carry it off so well. The tracks on the original album are originals but could so easily have been written in 1966/67 a la Marriot/Lane. Raw energy? Oh yes. Technical ability? Most definitely. Sheer brilliance? Most definitely so!!!!
If you buy one CD this year make it this one. This is without a shadow of a doubt a classic for anyone into the 60's revival genre. Never an advocate of "revivalist bands" the Prisoners were outstanding in that they captured the sound of what we hold so dear.....
Highlight of the album... "Explosion On Uranus". Absolutely superb. Small Faces meet the Ventures to produce one of the most outstanding tracks I've heard for a film that should have been made. On the track alone I'd go and see it! Play this album at maximum volume. Your neighbours need to hear it too! - By erichvon
