We have a first entry each day that is a picture or a video, and only in that entry you can place your music links and requests (NO ALBUMS AFTER 31. DECEMBER 2016 AND A LIMIT OF 3 EVERY DAY)! All the rest official posts will only allow comments related to the official posts and such. That way it will keep things much more organized and tidy.
Enjoy!

Gene Vincent & Friends – Gene Therapy – Vol. 5 (of 6)
Masters And Servant
This series of 6 compilations is based on the previous 4 volumes called “The Roots Of Gene Vincent”, which were compiled by Uncle Gil and featured original or previous versions of songs later recorded or performed by Gene Vincent. I took the original compilations and added Gene Vincent’s versions. I also added songs not on the original compilations, to make it a 6 CD series. Each CD is just under 90 minutes, for those who’d like to burn them.
Many thanks to Uncle Gil.

Various Artists – The Boat That Rocked
Mercury 2701298 (U.K. 2009)
“The Boat That Rocked” is a 2009 movie based on the story of the many offshore pirate radio stations that ruled the European airwaves in the 60s (Radio Caroline, Radio Atlanta, Radio London, Radio City, Radio Scotland, Radio 270, Radio Essex, BBMS, Radio England, Britain Radio, Radio 390, Radio Sutch, King Radio, Radio Veronica, Syd Radio, Radio Mercur, Radio Nord and more).
Believe me, life on board had nothing to do with what is described and suggested in the movie.
Then, what did the compilers think when they included David Bowie’s “Let’s Dance” (which was released in 1983) as the closing track? And then, why did the compilers include the same song (Stay With Me Baby) twice (albeit by different artists)?

SPLIT ENZ
Split Enz was a rock band from New Zealand that was popular during the late 1970s and early 1980s. It was founded in 1973 by Tim Finn and Phil Judd, and had a variety of other members during its existence. Split Enz had eight songs listed in the APRA Top 100 New Zealand Songs of All Time, more than any other band.
Split Enz had ten albums (including seven studio albums) reach the top ten of the Official New Zealand Music Chart. From 1980 to 1982, the band had four number-one albums in New Zealand and three in Australia. It also had two albums break the top ten of the Canadian Albums Chart, two break the top fifty of the Billboard 200, and one break the top fifty of the UK Albums Chart. The only number-one single for Split Enz was "I Got You" (1980), which topped the charts in both New Zealand and Australia. Other top-ten singles include "One Step Ahead" (1980), "History Never Repeats" (1981), "Dirty Creature" (1982), and "Six Months in a Leaky Boat" (1982). (Wikipedia)
I recall seeing them in concert (as a support Act to a major visiting act who I cant remember) and I was blown away by their originality and magnificent if not a little weird performance. I immediately purchased their album Mental Notes. I have my original copy and 4 more copies which are at various levels of wear. A Great group often underrated.
History Doesn’t Repeat. It just gets better... This is a compilation of my favorite and mostly underrated Split Enz songs.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next related compilations will likely be a collection of Tobin Sprouts
excellent GbV songs and Robert Pollards solo works.
Along with set updates when even more songs become eligible.
I have had GbV on the brain for a couple weeks now preparing this set,
so a little break from them is going to be needed.
The next band to get the "Super Deluxe" treatment will probably be
THE WEDDING PRESENT, keep an eye out for that maybe sometime next month.
I will also try to launch a new series by the end of the week,
maybe something in the various artists realm?
A round of high fives go to the following people, @Naz Frida, @lorcan white,
@jonder, @Psychfan, @Butterboy, @Jim H and @zipper and his music loving household.
I hope I didn't miss anyone, great comments guys and gals. Very much appreciated.
As always, big thanks to RYP @ Gyro for this amazing platform.
HUGE! thanks goes to Robert Pollard and all the GBV line ups
over the years for all the AWESOME!! songs. Be sure to check them
out live while you can if they visit your area. I have seen
them live many times and it's always a beer soaked blast.

Sleaford Mods are an English music duo based in Nottingham, composed of vocalist
Jason Williamson and musician Andrew Robert Lindsay Fearn (since 2012). They are
known for their abrasive, minimalist musical style and embittered explorations
of austerity-era Britain, culture, and working class life, delivered in Williamson's
thick East Midlands accent. The duo have released several albums to critical acclaim.

Thanks to a bunch of you for the Birthday greetings and nuggets of wisdom last Sunday. I logged off early that day and missed them all until yesterday! Sorry for the tardy acknowledgement and the missed opportunities for further dialog.

@Jonny Thunderbyrd: Count Bishops at Edinburgh was posted 15 February at 12:51. Here is the link provided by Rank Stranger:
https://workupload.com/file/8Ar4ckyN
Let me know if you have a problem. It's a nice piece of work. Thanks again Rank Stranger. This is a rare nugget.
____________
@96dbFreak: Thanks for the Count Bishops debut self-title album from 1977, on 15 February. Somehow that slipped thru the cracks. A question about your share yesterday - was that the two-album compilation, or was that the two original albums separately?
____________
@Searnav: Thanks for Dr. Feelgood - Live in Belgium yesterday. I didn't see that DVD in their discography, so that rip must be in the category of "unofficial." It makes me think that Dr. Feelgood should get the TZ "treatment" as well.
Discogs lists 28 albums and 25 Compilations by Dr. Feelgood. I have 19 of the 53 and they're not all high quality. A number of them have been shared on TZ in the past, and some on the main page. Unless someone has a larger collection and want's to take the lead on this, I would be up for "facilitating" this undertaking, but would need a lot of help to complete the collection - if that's even possible. There are some other things that I want to share first.
____________
@BigGray: Thanks for the shares yesterday. In addition to those, I have:
Tyla Gang - Yachtless @ 320
Tyla Gang - Live in Rockpalast @320 (one CD - not sure if this is a complete version)
Bram Tchaikovsky - The Russians Are Coming @320
No Snakes
No Nick Garvey
You might be in a better situation. I don't mind stepping aside if you want to share these.

Thanks to everyone - especially RYP and GYRO for making this all possible.

https://www28.zippyshare.com/v/4l0s4Xgz/file.html
Good Monday morning, TZ! Today, we're featuring Roy Brown, the author of "Good Rockin' Tonight" and singer of so many more hits. Interestingly enough, he was one of the first blues songwriters to actually sue his label (King) for royalties and win. In 1952, yet.
The Kitsch Korner has some of Ricky Ricardo and Lucille McGuillicuty's biggest hits (with Fred and Ethel Mertz along for the ride). And if sitcoms don't set you afire, we also have John Gale's soundtrack to the first Dr. Phibes sequel. My next dog is going to be named Vulnavia.

Does anyone have the 2on1 CD of The Moon on Revola? All the links I can find on the net are dead.
Edward, of course you couldn't find the Dr Feelgood Live In Belgium DVD anywhere, as there is no such thing! As mentioned in my comment, it's an audio rip of my VHS tape as filmed by a friend of mine.

@ vacabilly and everyone else...The King Dapper Combo story part 3...All the while The King Dapper Combo was going on, Zombo and I also decided to form a low maintenance group called The Hillbilly Varmints. Little to no practice ans steal as many riffs and songs as we could. Zombo's ex-wife (C U Next Tuesday) whined to join the band and then complained about everything we did. All her bass parts needed to be re-recorded by Zombo for the CD. Originally we had no drummer, but Gary wanted to do it, so we made him wear a dress, a wig and play a spare tire with a drum head on it placed on a TV tray. He became Aunt Martha. After Gary moved away, we got a girl with a perpetual scowl on her face. She made her own drum kit out of buckets, pots and pans. After winning over a hostile crowd opening for Dr. Dirty John Valby, the two girls quit. Why pay over $30 on Amazon when I'm giving you Get A Load Of...The Hillbilly Varmints
The Hillbilly Varmints - Get A Load Of...
https://www89.zippyshare.com/v/dghPLxAP/file.html
We recorded 9 new Hillbilly Varmint songs in one night, live. They make up the first 9 tracks on Play Dirty. Guess who most of the songs are about? Aunt Martha re-appeared as well as bully Ron from King Dapper Combo (this was before they were given the heave ho). The rest of the songs were from self-released cassette tapes that we put out before the first CD. Here's The Hillbilly Varmints - Play Dirty

After a while, Zombo relocated to Pittsburgh and formed The Legion of Incredibly Strange Superheroes. Their shows were a thing to behold and lots of fun. It didn't hurt that former Frampton Brothers guitarist Sean Lally was playing with them. Here's their only CD - Premier Issue.

Hello Jean-Jacques MURA yes it is THE PREE SISTERS - YOU'VE GOT TO USE WHAT YOU'VE GOT
I'm just finding a problem with the vol. 118 I posted the 20 th of January. For me the #7 Masterpiece "Love Affair" is not good. It seems to be the Pree Sisters "You've Got To Use What You've Got". If someone could confirm and give an explanation. Thanks
Searnav, You did indeed say that. Thanks for the correction - I strive for accuracy too.

Our drinking wasn’t always to our benefit, naturally. Roger Hodgson, my percussion player, had a serious bladder problem; he was probably the biggest drinker by far, outrageous, but he couldn’t really hold his water much more than an hour and a half max, which was unfortunate as our set was three hours long. So he came up with this ingenious solution of hanging a bucket on his vibraphone, which he would endeavour to pee into during the loud sections of the show. Every now and then his timing wasn’t great so I’d be starting a very delicate piano piece only to hear the sound of a man pissing in a fire bucket.
In the end, the crew complained that although they didn’t mind lugging the gear, climbing up precarious lighting rigs and working eighteen-hour days, when it came to the crunch they were not paid to empty Hodgy’s pisspot. I said, ‘Well, someone’s got to do it,’ but they were having none of it; by way of making their point they drilled holes in the bottom of his bucket. So the next time he played his shoes got rather wet.

thanks, thank you, I had a lot of fun with the video! and there's an earworm: jobseeker! jobseeker! I love the Britts that they send something on tv ... Tomorrow I will serve three more albums of the two SLEAFORD MODS...yeah
A friend posed this question ..
Sorry to go off topic somewhat, but I cannot find the info anywhere - on The BBC (news channel) there is a programme called 'The Papers' The ad spot for it on the BBC has a very catchy minimalist jazzy type of music playing over it (piano, double bass, drums). I would love to know what this is and who by. I can't find this via the BBC's own on line music content platform as this sems only for the songs of artists used in or who appear on their programmes not the soundbed music or theme tunes they use for those programmes. It might be a very short piece written for the programme but I suspect it is an actiual jazz tune they have used.
Would anyone know please ? TIA
To all ALC gang .Sorry to be a pain in the arse,But can anyone tell me where ALC 057 is.!!!
Great job Guys
@Edward
You ask A question about your share yesterday - was that the two-album compilation, or was that the two original albums separately?
That was the two Ducks Deluxe albums separately. I had no idea that they'd been released together.

Hi Depravos, Your pithy question got me to thinking. I can only answer for myself. It would take Freud and Jung to analyze why any of us are really here, but here’s my attempt. In order to put together a series like A La Carte or say RYP’s Do the 45 someone had to find and pay for the 45’s or LP’s. In the pre-internet days of the ‘60s to ‘80s that meant a collector had to put in thousands of hours and drive or fly thousands of miles to find these incredibly rare 45s. For 40 years, I drove the whole Middle Atlantic seaboard in the US in search of vinyl- New York City, North Jersey cities, South Jersey, Philly, Baltimore and DC. Luckily, I lived smack dab in the middle of them all in tiny Delaware. Every Saturday and Sunday my buddies and I headed out to look for soul music. The trips took us to at least 50 stores, 25 monthly conventions, filthy basements, yard sales, and attics, standing next to guys who hadn’t showered in months and smelled like goats, who hadn’t changed their shirts in a month, who hadn’t brushed their teeth in a week, whose wives left them because of the collecting, who lived in cars, whose sustenance was pizza and chips three times a day. One guy’s wife said it’s me or the records. His response was that I can always get another wife, but this Clyde McPhatter song is really hard to get. Another wife threatened to leave because the records took over the house. When she went away for the weekend, he built a new room for the records to try to save the marriage. She left him anyway. I broke up fistfights between guys arguing over prices in parking lots and in stores; I met 100’s of guys from the UK and all over Europe, Japan, Jamaica and the Virgin Islands, and South America showing them where to eat , where to stay overnight, how not to get taken or beat up, how to bargain. All of them more fanatical about the American music than we were. I bought rare records with cake on them, cheese dip, mouse droppings, dead roaches and some that looked like the Blackhawks skated on them. All went home to my elaborate cleaning process. We read every issue of Goldmine and Discoveries to keep abreast of conventions and shows, store openings and mail order stores. We listened to every great soul show DJ from DC to Boston on our elaborate radios to hear the new found 45s. My mentor was the great Val Shively from Philly. Go to You Tube to look at the largest store in the world. He is the international guru, a guy so honest he told me to start collecting soul cds and stop buying records because my hobby was getting too expensive. In his store you will find the guys and gals who made the music, sometimes looking for their own songs. This is where I met some of the Intruders, Magnificent Men, Blue Magic and others. And, of course, the ubiquitous Brits and Asians. Then in ’08 after my back went and I could no longer travel long distances, I met some guys online from all around the world on a site called Tomorrow’s Velvet Dreamz who helped me with the technology and anthologized my collection for me. Not sure how old you are but for septuagenarians like me and other collectors like me, we know what went into the ALC series, and we are astonished and deeply thankful.
@Wu Ming - very happy to see the Sleaford Mods here! After your Ryan Adams share I wondered, "What's next? R.Kelly? Gary Glitter?" I'm trying to think of a joke that would combine Ryan Adams' band the Cardinals with recently defrocked Cardinal McCarrick, but it's not happening.

You also mention Dr. Feelgood. I have 39 Dr. Feelgood albums [not including duplications - original CD, Deluxe, SHM etc.], mostly @ 320 and 11 Wilko Johnson albums (2 after 2016). And yes, I did like pub-rock far more than I liked punk. I even sang the Feelgoods' "She Does It Right" and the Ducks' "Coast To Coast" and "Don't Mind Rockin' Tonite" with the band I was in at the time. Dr Feelgood list is in a text file https://www79.zippyshare.com/v/QaSlKDFC/file.html
@96dbFreak: Yeah there was a compilation that combined the first two albums, but if I remember correctly they omitted one song from each album so it would fit in the CD format.
No worries, it's not a big deal - not even a little deal. There's little reason to get the compilation, especially if it is inferior to the two albums.
@jonder: Strange things are happening. I saw a news article that Ryan Adams himself got in trouble for some misconduct. How many other famous musicians could land in the same pickle? Oh the times they are a-changing.
@Jonder again. I re-read your post and realized that you were referring to that very thing. There is surely a lot of dirty laundry out there.
@BillyMac. Nice explanation. It kind of diminishes the sense of accomplishment in filling up hard drives with music that I didn't have to work for - or pay for either.
DEPRAVOS DE LA MOUR, I think it's quite anal, it's not about the music so much as it is about getting all the info, the best bitrates etc, most people can't identify by ear the bit rate! I'm lost with all the stuff that is flying around, I enjoyed Northern Madman's uploads a few years ago.

I like your description of obsessive vinyl collecting.

thanks much BillyMac.
i do understand the music collection obsession. i deeply love soul music. northern,beach,philly and such have many gems but the genres as a whole do not thrill me like early ike and tina or dyke and the blazers.
wife vs clyde i do indeed understand. i envy your adventures. i have my own but they are tiny trials and trails compared to yours. i too am a septy but still involved in my own band performing and writing originals. i stopped doing covers in my youth. we are still creating and there just isn't time enough for that. thank you for a wonderful summary of the disease.
one question though... do you consider the alc series to be the best ever covering that genre?
Hey, Billy Mac, that's quite something. Respect.

A shame that rude people also come here
To me soul music is monkeys in trees music.. but each to their own I mean rap crap is also not music but rubish that dave loves
@Billy Mac - thank you for expressing the compulsion/joy so well. As a music collector and comic book collector besides the love of the subject it's also about the thrill of the hunt, finding that great treasure, completing the run of the series - no matter what - it's a wonderful feeling of accomplishment and enjoying it all. Then, there's that part of friendly competition keeping the juices flowing. The camaraderie of being with others like me, sharing our likes, dislikes, opinions on the song, musical reproduction method, who's version is "best", etc. gives a sense of belonging. For 23 years and counting every Saturday night before the Superbowl a group of my musical friends (wives included) have what we call a Soup and CD party. Bring your favorite soup and a homemade comp of music you want to expose people to. The focus is the music (the food is good too)all the lively conversation and fun that goes with it - like a club/community. Like this section of the TZ.
Thanks Burney Redding & mfarkas2 for the ALC's, Sitarswami for The Robbs comp, joanjo65 for The Beatles Tribute Box Set and HarryHarmonica51 for Grumpy Old Rock Star. Wonderful tale of collecting BillyMac. Cheers ya'll!
