An excellent compilation of raw Memphis soul – from one of the rarest singers on the famous Hi Records label! In the years before Hi Records had big hits with singers like Al Green and Ann Peebles, and when they were still mostly messing around with pop instrumental tunes, the label was fortunate enough to have the talents of the great singer Don Bryant – a rich-voiced southern singer with a mix of styles who could easily slip into the styles of singers like Tyrone Davis, Otis Redding, Johnny Taylor, and Wilson Pickett.

THE GIRLS ARE AT IT AGAIN
A nice collection of obscure UK female sides from the mid to late 60’s, heavily favoring the Fontana and Polydor labels. The “Beat Girls” title is a bit of a misnomer, as this goes pretty far beyond the beat world to incorporate teen pop, vocal R&B, northern soul, and other pop subgenres of the period.

PLASTIC PENNY
UK popsike, they had two studio albums in just over a year’s time, which is impressive for a band that only charted one hit single. Although the band came and went fairly quickly, most members went on to bigger and better things with bands like UFO, Spencer Davis Group, Procol Harum, The Troggs, and even Elton John. They have one more posthumous release of b-sides and rarities called “Heads I Win, Tails You Lose” – I thought I had it but can’t find it, so if anyone does have it please consider sharing.

KENSINGTON MARKET
Hailing from Toronto, Canada, they formed out of the ashes of at least three local bands. They played a bluesy popsike that tinkers with pieces of US West Coast country psych while staying distinctly unique among the rising sea of Fillmore followers. However, their studio work couldn’t quite capture the rich arrangements they were known for in concert; commercial shortcomings combined with internal strife to dissolve the band after only about two years. They laid down two full-lengths in their time, appreciated more in retrospect than they were at the jump, for defining what would become a small but identifiable branch of Canadian-style psych rock.

Thank you Gyro for the Don Bryant!!
LoFi Larry --
Back in the late 60s when the record stores were beginning to pack in the new rock groups and being forty years away from computers and blogs it was nearly impossible to determine which record to buy. As often as possible I made it a point to buy at least one unknown (to me) record when my money allowed it. Kensington Market was one of the groups that I looked at at one time. They were pictured on the cover in a snow storm (Avenue Road) but I didn't buy it. I can't remember what record I did buy but I've always remembered that album precisely because I came so close to buying it. Now I have an opportunity to hear what it was I missed. So, thanks.
And keep the girls coming. You and Gyro supply the girls and I'll take it from there. I've never had so many women before.
Thanks for the Don Bryant.
For LoFi Larry:
Thee Tsunamis - Saturday Night Sweetheart '15
For fans of: the Trashwomen, the Shangri Las, the New York Dolls, the Ramones, the Bobbyteens, the Mummies, Girls in the Garage, and John Waters.
The debut LP of Indiana-based bubblegum punk trio Thee Tsunamis.
More street-grit than surfside, Thee Tsunamis are a rock’n’roll joyride with hellcat weed queens at the wheel. On their debut full-length Saturday Night Sweetheart, the Midwest-turf trio—Betsy (guitar), Jenna (bass) and Sharlene (drums)—blend girl-group bubblegum with feral punk, hugging every hairpen turn along the way.
Saturday Night Sweetheart, with its jagged harmonies over fuzz-crusted pop hooks, marries the New York Dolls’ gutter-glam attitude with the sound of Brill Building teen-sploitation, to a much bloodier effect. From heart-in-a-blender tales and drag-race party anthems to the title track’s proto-punk pyrotechnics, these 12 tunes are as catchy as they are cutting and together they tell a story as old as time: what the men don’t know, the little girls understand.
Like Thee Tsunamis’ demo release A Goodbad Man Is Hard To Find (2013) and horror-concept EP Delirium and Dark Waters (2014), Saturday Night Sweetheart (May, 2015) was recorded to tape in the basement of Magnetic South and has the signature fidelity of a subterranean rock’n’roll echo-chamber. Plate reverb and tape
delay spin some witchy doo wop atmospherics between slasher guitar riffs and nerve rattling rhythms. Saturday Night Sweetheart is a date you don’t want to break. (Crawdaddy)
More street-grit than surfside, Thee Tsunamis are a rock'n'roll joyride with Tura Satana at the wheel. On their debut full-length Saturday Night Sweetheart, the trio (Betsy on guitar, Jenna on bass, and Sharlene on beats) blend girl-group bubblegum with feral punk, hugging every hairpin turn of Kim Fowley's twisted, trashbucket heart along the way. With jagged harmonies over fuzz-crusted pop hooks, theirs is the sound of Brill Building teen-sploitation with bloodier results. From heart-in-a-blender tales to drag-race party anthems, these 12 tracks are as catchy as they are cutting and together they tell a story as old as time: what the men don't know, the little girls understand. Like Thee Tsunamis' tape A Goodbad Man Is Hard To Find (2013) and horror-concept EP Delirium and Dark Waters (2014), Saturday Night Sweetheart (May, 2015) was recorded to tape in the basement studio of Magnetic South and has all the signature fidelity of a subterranean rock'n'roll echo-chamber. So play it loud, and hold on to your seat! (Bomp)

Thanks for Don Bryant and "The Girls".
cheers,ELtel
Thanks for Thee Tsunamis, Gyro - I sure dig them lo-fi ladies.
Happy New Year to you all, and thanks again to all the posters.
I'm hoping one of you can help me with a request. I've been looking for music by Das Furlines, a mid-'80s all-woman punk-polka group. Particularly the 4-CD box set,"Bratwurst, Bierhalls and Bustiers" put out in 1992 on Palooka Records. But anything would be great (They had three albums in the mid-eighties).
Thanks for your efforts.
Peace in the new year.
Thanks for the girls, always a pleasure! Meanwhile, already the 31st here in Malaysia, I uploaded overnight some extra shares as tomorrow we take a day off (phew... finally!)

Happy New Year to you all especially Mr. Twilight himself, Gyro, Larry, Jillem and all those who share their music here. My collection is expanding way too rapidly to listen to everything more than once. But no complains, I hope the blog continues next year in the same speed!
A Punk-Polka group on Palooka! I think your pulling my plonker...
Psyclist -- Thanks for all the Peter Case & Bob Neuwirth.
Lemonflag -- check out 'Nichts Nein Frankenstein' on Youtube. Bad recording, but... Here's the link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NnWlRWm2y2w
Happy New Year everybody.
Peace.
To all of you who make the TZ a welcome respite from troubling times, wishes for a season of peace and happiness.
Thanks for all the generous shares.
Psyclist: The link for 'Six-pack Of Love' is missing, or maybe I'm blind?
Happy New Year all!
Happy new year to all, and much thanks for the Don Bryant guys.
