It’s Sunday, and what better way to start it out than the Sunday Funnies Mega Post? A few Cheech and Chong albums (well, I DO live in Denver…) and some odds and ends, including a hard-to-find Professor Irwin Corey album, Bernard Cribbins (the spoon salesman in Fawlty Towers’ “The Hotel Inspectors” episode), impressionist George Kirby, Allan Sherman (yes, “Hello Muddah, Hello Faddah” is here), and a lesson or two in “How to Speak Hip”. As always, bitrates vary.
Cheech and Chong:

Sunday SOUL
Thanks to the original uploaders.
Just had to put Nile Rodgers up - you can't beat a bit of Chic or Sister Sledge. For the rest of the week up until Christmas there should be some less well known soul for you.

Hi Friends
Today I bring you Japanese garage
The Fadeaways - Garage Punk Hitsville - 2017
http://www13.zippyshare.com/v/MS6xivWG/file.html
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The Routes
That a group of "garage" releases two albums in the same year is certainly an extraordinary circumstance. If it turns out that it is two albums without any waste at the expense of a single musician who composes, sings and plays almost all the instruments, with only help on the drums, I think we have more than enough elements to praise the British Chris Jack, the main factotum of The Routes to the top of the altar of our international scene. From the middle of the decade of the two thousand until the current year, he has recorded six huge discs in which they show their convincing roots "garage" seasoned with psychedelic details, instro, freakbeat, frat-rock, or R & B. Although, in the beginning, the recordings materialized in a trio format, it is from 2015 when the project is solved with no less exceptional results. Through a broad musical criteria and a compositional as well as interpretative skill, it brings to life great songs with captivating melodies, frenetic rhythms, and memorable soloists certainly memorable that magnify the catalog of the best current rock and roll with sixties roots.

Various – Kaminari - Nineteen Japanese Garage Monsters - 2015
Compilations are many but in the case of Kaminari ..., in addition to having a spectacular cover illustration, it draws attention that shows the current panorama of garage, punk and surf music in Japan. With a precise selection, there is no filler song and it is the ideal start for those who want to enter the aforementioned musical scenes of the Asian nation.

HOW COULD YOU? HEARTBREAKIN' DOO-WOP
You may have seen the doo-wop compilations I have posted on TZ over the past couple of years - Doo-Wop Detective and Doo-Wop: Sorted! - 33 volumes, 600 different tracks in all. I thought I would listen to them all again and make a single-volume "Best Of". If you're not so big on doo-wop, hopefully it will serve as an introduction to the good stuff (IMHO). It also shows what kind of stuff I personally go for.
Turns out I'm a big ol' softy! Virtually all my favourite tracks (excluding the rockin' ones, which I'm not including here) are proper heartstring tuggers.
I have no idea if anyone else finds doo-wop as emotionally affecting as I do - maybe it's just me.
Here's the link:

Gaius asked:
Does someone have "The Rose of Avalanche" and 'I.C.E.'????
I have the other three albums if someone's in need ('In Rock', 'Never another Sunset' and 'String A Beads'.

Bob, thanks for all the soul music you've shared. I really like the Tangerine comps. Would it be possible to share a text file with a list of all the soul music you've shared? I didn't always check what you shared. : - ( Cheers.
Hello. I look for the following EP: The Individuals - Johnny Farfisa Greatest Hits - on 1965 N.Y.

Dear friends, desperately seeking the following album :
Bards of the Barleycorn "When Grandma Used To Call"
Thanks for your help !
Single track request please...
Does anyone have the track:
Ruth Brown - What Happened To You 1964 ?
Thanks in advance
Is there any 20 second sect link?
@JWDen, thanks so much for B. Cribbins. Lovely, lovely. :)
I've noted a distinct lack of Christmas music thus far, so let me do my part to remedy that with one of my favorites.
This is "Xmas! The Beatmas," by The Rubber Band. They are/were a Beatles tribute band from Sweden. Most of the tracks are well-known Christmas songs set to Beatles music. Very well done and it's fun to pick out all the Beatle bits they copped for each arrangement.
I've also thrown in two Beatles-style Christmas tunes by The Fab Four tribute band, which are great as well. If someone has the rest of this disc, I'd be grateful.
FLAC w/crappy lo-res art.
Tracklist:
1 Jinglebell Rock
2 Santa Claus Is Coming To Town
3 Rockin´ Around The Christmas Tree
4 Last Christmas
5 Feliz Navidad
6 I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus
7 Jinglebells
8 Rudolph The Rednosed Reindeer
9 Mary´s Boy Child
10 White Christmas (Happy Xmas-War Is Over)
11 Silent Night
12 A Bairn Is Born In Beatlehome

ALSO: any TZers who like world music, check out a site called 'Radio Garden'. There's a map of the world showing radio stations that you can live stream just by clicking on them.
JWDen - thanks for the Professor Irwin Corey!
Anyone not familiar with him, check him out on youtube, he was an amazing comedian. However, he was totally original, and definitely 'The World's Foremost Authority'.
He died earlier this year.
@ jonder
for some south african music can try to visit
http://electricjive.blogspot.it/ and this http://afrosynth.blogspot.it/
for ethiophian music http://ethio-pain-music.blogspot.it/
Does anyone have any music from The Flatlanders to share? Bootlegs are welcome too. My selection is for them is pretty poor and I would love to hear more. Thanks!
Greetings to the entire TZ gang. I have tried a few times express my gratitude for all the music that has been available on this website, but I've never seen any of these comments make it onto the comments section. I'm trying once again - hopefully I'm doing it right this time.I just want to send a gigantic thank you to everyone involved. I have found such incredible treasures here consistently for over a couple of years. It has truly enhanced and strengthened my love for such a vast array of music that rarely gets heard in the mainstream. It's so satisfying to find others who share a diverse and eclectic attitude toward music in general. Most recently, I want to send out a special Hallelujah to Aging Child for all of the great early music he has shared with us all. Thank you so much, Aging Child, for the vast array of obscure, entertaining, and informative material you've been dragging out of your obviously gigantic archive! Also very appreciative of your civility and and generosity of spirit to the entire TZ Universe. Wishing everyone in this world a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
@ Bill
You can find Tangerine & all others on here

Still trying to figure out how to leave a comment here. I've tried many times, but never yet figured out how to actually express how much I've appreciated Twilight Zone over all this time. Thank you so very much for all the great treasures that have been posted here! Best wishes to everyone out there in the coming NewYear!
Re: Clash's rip of the Pretenders' "The Singles" CD (1987).
Dunno if Pretenders fans know this, but "The Singles" was the first U.S. release to feature the full 3:13 version of "Talk Of The Town," which was first put out at that length on a U.K. single, but edited down to 2:40 when it came to the U.S.
The original single had two choruses. But for the U.S. release they removed a chorus. This shortened version came out first on the U.S. promo single (with "Message Of Love" on the flip), then on "Extended Play," and finally on "Pretenders II."
I've always consider this edit pointless and destructive to the song, which is one of my favorites of theirs. It was especially ridiculous that Sire Records put this short version on "Extended Play," where they had scads of extra space for those missing 33 seconds.
So, if you're a U.S. fan and you think you don't need "The Singles" collection because you have the albums, get it for this song alone, which really should be heard the way they originally cut it.

@CrazyLegs, Excellent posts of Kiwi and Flying Nun compilations.I only had a couple of the lot uploaded.Thanks so much for your input.Are you a big fan of Flying Nun Bands? They have been amongst my favorite for many years now.The compilations are a great introduction for discovering bands that are worthy of futher exploration,which is often the case with the New Zealand Artists. @Timebender
@Bob
That list was REALLY useful, found the Tangerine post and quite a few more!

@JWDen: thank you for the Cheech y Chong... and for betting my life while you were at it!
@Clash: thank you for the Pretenders, too.
@CrazyLegs: thanks for the EnnZedd sounds. My brother was an exchange student at U. Canterbury / Christchurch around that same time, and was nice enough to send me a real rugby shirt with rubber buttons while there. Now, thirty-five-ish years later, I can stir up some of his old memories...
@LeeIsMe: thank you for the "Radio Garden" -- fascinating site; I'll pass it along to my international friends and family! In my much-younger days, I used to explore the world via shortwave (Deutsche Welle, RCI, etc.), thanks to a set given me by my father, who used recorded news and music to teach modern-language university students in the 1970s-90s. This does the same thing... and much more easily, too. Wow.
Cheers!

And for those of a more Heathen inclination - or who want to get the party started early by ringing those solstice bells:

Thanks for repost of Rojac story,
Hey, EasilyConfused, you're just a Saving Silverman of doo-wop like me. Killer compilation, thank you. John.
Thanks to Peacenik, Leeisme, and Luis for the African music blog recommendations! Each blog had links to many others, so I spent several happy hours digging through the "crates" and adding to my collection.
@ jonder
forget this isn't only a african music blog but there are some good african music share on it (plus some ska, punk, patchanka, french, rap&Hip-hop, etc )

@HipChops: Thank you sincerely for your kind words, and I'm glad you got through onto the Comments page -- not simply for your warm handshake, but because I know the folks here enjoy hearing from new folks delighted by the depth and array of what's being shared.
That's where I started maybe a year ago... and still feel myself to be. There are truly knowlegeable and experienced lovers of music here, who teach us -- show us -- things we'd never have come remotely near. And now we're enriched, minds and ears opened all the wider.
What I've enjoyed sharing here (in some amazement, too) is mostly small stuff, next to what at least a dozen well-honed and supremely generous kind souls pull out of their back pockets with ease. I'm truly pleased that long-ago work of long-gone artists has reached you and others like it's reached me; that's why we share. Why keep the good stuff to ourselves? Pass our toys along to the other kids, and we get to play with their even-cooler toys.
That's what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown.
@Monty's: Thank you for the BBC sessions, especially the Yardbirds!
@Diana: Thanks for the tale of two Tulls!
Cheers!
Thanks for the flying nun stuff,Luis( and Crazylegs). Do you perhaps have King Loser-Caul of the Outlaw and Troubled Land?( I have Sonic Super Free Hi-Fi and You cannot kill what does not live, should someone need these,please request)
