Screamin' Jay Hawkins "Spellbound!" 1955-1974 - disc 1

Esquerita may have been one of the rockin'est cats ever, but Screamin' Jay' Hawkins was certainly the weirdest...
...A true original who steadily recorded for 40 years, Hawkins conjures up images of voodoo evil and satanic rites, all presented in an often looped manner that defies all norms. The man who opened his live shows by rising from a coffin was not the easiest performer to market, and as a result the hit total is scanty. His recording career is scattered amongst some two dozen labels, and while his most sustained stretch, with Columbia's Okeh subsidiary label, has been digitally documented elsewhere, this fine collection gathers together the important missing pieces: two sessions for Mercury and Wing in 1955, two sessions for Decca in 1966, four sessions for Philips in 1969 and a one-off single session for RCA from 1974. Among the many goodies are two remakes of I Put A Spell On You plus such wonders as Voodoo, She Put The Whamee On Me, Feast Of The Mau Mau, Constipation Blues, Bite It, and, just to complete the cycle, You Put A Spell On Me. Add to this an amazing, photo-filled 36-page booklet and you've got a pretty strong picture of an amazing, if unorthodox, performer.

The Halibuts "Chumming" 1994

Southern California's longest running & most authentic surf band spawns surf rock in the instrumental style a la Dick Dale!
I don't know how many of these songs were written by Pete Curry and I don't really care... lets just say that he wrote enough to make this the best surf CD of modern times... Bar None!!! If Dick Dale is the King of Surf Guitar then Pete Curry is the King of Surf Music.Pete has single handidly lifted the entire genre from its stagnant, rif based,three chord guitar nausea to an incredibly elevated level of inspired, rif based,three chord guitar brilliance.Whether its Pete's Guitar playing on Halibuts CD's.His Bass playing with the Nightriders and Los Straight Jackets or his Drumming for everybody from the HillBilly Soul Surfers to Dave Allen there is one thread that follows him through all his writing and recording... Genius! The good old American kind of genius...the 90% perspiration 10% inspiration kind of Genius! All of his songs have an attention to compositional detail, to playing quality and (on the tunes that he has enginered and produced) attention to sound! These ingredients alone don't make good listening, but add what I consider Curry's forte and you have an A+ ,10 on a scale of 10 CD. Pete's Secret? ...Fun! No pretense... No Pompous whining... No self-indulgence. Just.... "Man this is a great day,life is great,I'm glad to be alive listening to these tunes" ... fun music! from amazon

The Satelliters "Shapes Of Sound" 1997

Fourteen years later the Satelliters have shed the masks, but their musichas remained constant in its quality, as evidenced by the band's ninthalbum, available for a limited time in a chocolate-swirled vinyl re-pressingfrom Burbank's own Dionysus Records...
...The album gets off to a rousingstart with "Abba," (watch the thrilling YouTube video below) and continuesapace with a slew of atmospheric, psychedelic-infused stompers, includingthe triumphant title song, the diamond-sharp "You Cannot See," and thechurning, keyboard-punctuated "Hey." - The Sateliters

"WILD STREAK" A New Kind Of Mambo Vol. 39

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 Lei Men "Beach Face EP" 2017

First off, it's a good band name. A pretty normal sounding surf band name until you say it aloud and realize the pun.
The Lei Men have a small handful of covers here, but manage to make each of them sound unique. While everybody else is trying to see who can shred Misirlou at warp speed, they prefer to just warp, even taking it slower and in a more psychedelic direction. Their cover of Travis Wammack's "Scratchy" has all sorts of new sounds going on, but like the original still sounds playfully off-kilter. "Unto the Barrel" is, as far as I know, their own composition and is probably the most progressive track, more jammy in structure,

Screamin' Jay Hawkins "Weird And Then Some!" 1953-1958 - disc 2

Screamin’ Jay Hawkins didn’t have the best of voices, really, and it’s tempting to think of him as mostly a novelty act...
...He did write a bona fide classic with “I Put a Spell on You,” then proceeded to record it dozens of times, or rewrote it into a marginally new song and then recorded that a dozen times. The bottom line is that Hawkins' legacy rests with “Spell,” which is fine. It’s a classic and that’s that. Hawkins was essentially a club R&B singer who stayed pretty close to the blues in his songs, no matter how far he reached to be spooky in his lyrics, but his real genius was in presentation. His stage set was theatrical, and the various coffins and other props that made up his act foreshadowed the later rock theater exploits of artists like Alice Cooper, Elton John, and Marilyn Manson, and “Spell” was always his centerpiece showstopper. This two-disc, 40-track (all of these tracks are in mono) set pretty much captures Hawkins at the start of his success. A version of “Spell” is here, along with thin rewrites of it like “She Put the Whamee on Me”; odd, skewed blues pieces like “Well I Tried”; and straight-out goofy novelty songs like “Little Demon.” There’s a lot of Hawkins here, and since he was very nearly a one-trick pony throughout his recording career, casual listeners might prefer a single-disc greatest-hits collection -- as long as it has a version of “I Put a Spell on You,” and truthfully, it doesn’t matter much which version, since a classic is a classic each time out in this case. (Steve Leggett, Allmusic)

Johnny Carbonaras love Man or Astroman? and Sonic Youth, Naked City and Dead Kennedys, Aphex Twin and Devo, Mr. Bungle and Mecano, Marc Ribot and Fred Lane. Johnny Carbonaras are Alek, Panos, Billy, Nikolas and Eva and they live in Thessaloniki.
I just can't leave this one alone. The obvious touchstone here is Man or Astro-Man with its wacked out punk-edged instrumentals, but it stands out on it's own and keeps a pretty constant frenzy throughout. Irradiates/Arno De Cea fans should take note - Hunter King

Rubén González "Introducing..." 1997

Rubén González (born May 26, 1919, Santa Clara, Cuba - died December 8, 2003, Havana, Cuba) was a Cuban pianist...
...He was a legend in Cuban music and counted as one of the most influential pianists of the music style Son. He became internationally known in the 1990's through Ry Cooder's Buena Vista Social Club and afterwards released two albums. - discogs

The Halibuts "Gnarly" 1986

Brings me back to Hermosa Beach in 1990-1991. Many nights spent listening to you guys throughout South Bay. I am glad to hear you again. Great CD. Suffering through a nasty New England winter, the CD made me take one one long look at my board and wish for summer. - Michael Donovan
tarting in the early 80's, South Bay los Angeles' own Halibuts played instro surf music when it wasn't even hip. All but one of the members in the band surfed, unusual at the time as well. This cd contains their first two albums which includes some instro ska/surf tunes as well as tradition instro surf tunes. There is even a few vocals thrown in for fun. These albums are raw and energetic like their live shows and are great fun! One of their members is now in the band Los Straightjackets. - cdbaby

The Satelliters "The Thyme Is Now" 1996

Taking a cue from theatrical Bay Area budget rockers like the Mummies,the Ripoffs and the Trashwomen, the Satelliters started their career cladin matching black leather fetish masks and noir outfits...
...But their songswere always more polished and evolved than their San Francisco brethren,even when they pounded out crude punk rock whoppers like "I Hate You,"on their 1995 Pinup Records 10," a split with the surf-rockin' Astronauts. - The Sateliters

The Untamed Youth "Some Kinda Fun" 1988

I've just finished ripping Untamed Youth's "Some Kinda Fun!" from my scratchy vinyl - if you wanted to post it, be my guest! Sleeve scans are in there too. Thanks again." - Reverend Bill
One of the most infectuous garage revival releases! Released on the great Norton Records in 1988, "Som Kinda Fun" was a throwback to the hot-rod and surf artists of the 60s (such as The Trashmen) but managed to sound fresh and original. I guess thats because in retrospect, Deke Dickerson was able to utilize the best aspects of the genre. This may not be extremely deep music, but it is incredibly fun and catchy. It sounds so pure, unlike many other bands who simply treated this music as a campy joke. It also has a perfect running time of just over a half hour, and doesn't contain a single weak track. The most popular number from the album is undoubtably "Pabst Blue Ribbon" (recently included on Rhino's box set "Children of Nuggets"), the anthem of all those who favour PBR over any other beer (including myself). If its hotrod-revival you want, you can't do much better than this. - StrummerFan8

Mickey Baker "In The '50s; Hit, Git & Split" 2007

Of all the guitarists who helped transform rhythm & blues into rock & roll, Mickey Baker was one of the very most important, ranking almost on the level of Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley. The reason he wasn't nearly as well known as those legends is that a great deal of his work wasn't issued under his own name, but as a backing guitarist for many R&B and rock & roll musicians. Baker originally aspired to be a jazz musician, but turned to calypso, mambo, and then R&B, where the most work could be found...to be continued... - by Richie Unterberger

...Like many 'billy nuts out there, he's got a penchant for surf as well, and this is a compilation of his instrumental efforts over the last 20 years.

Screamin' Jay Hawkins "I Shake My Stick On You" 1991

The CD cover says: "WARNING! This recording contains material that may be offensive to some people!"
This is one of the few true "albums" of Screamin Jay that is not a compilation or re-recording of old material. A great bluesy back up band supports Jay very well. The recording is from 1991 and features Bo Diddley Jr on guitar. This CD has great material and excellent sound quality. For fans of the late great Hawkins, this is a must have.

The Surfin' Surfers "Still Surfin'" 2017

"EGYPTIAN CHA-CHA" A New Kind Of Mambo Vol. 37

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

MICKEY BAKER "Session Man & Performer" Vol. 5

Here is final volume in this series of Mickey Baker's legendary work, compiled by Marty Mellow. (He just passed away November 27, 2012.) If you asked me, and I know you didn't, but if you did, I'd say Mickey "Guitar" Baker is the greatest guitarist in rock'n'roll history...
...Bob Quine agreed with me. (The Hound Blog)Of all the guitarists who helped transform rhythm & blues into rock & roll, Mickey Baker is one of the very most important, ranking almost on the level of Chuck Berry and Bo Diddley. The reason he isn't nearly as well known as those legends is that a great deal of his work wasn't issued under his own name, but as a backing guitarist for many R&B and rock & roll musicians.
