The Aqua Velvets "Aqua Velvets" 1992

Load the CD on your i-Pod and drive. A Fascinating Blend of spaghetti western, shimmering psychedelia, pristine surf, latin rhythms, mysterious faraway places, and a tongue-in-cheek dash of lounge.
I was browsing in the Virgin Megastore on Sunset one night when I heard this really great music playing on the store system, I asked the salesperson what it was and… you guessed it… it was "The Aqua Velvets" by the Aqua Velvets. I bought a copy and I'm glad I did.
The CD is all instrumental "surf guitar" and it's really good, I particularly like "Blue Rhumba" and "Swampabilly Hop". This is a great CD to listen to when you are driving, especially the Ventura between Thousand Oaks and Studio City around three in the morning (speedy). The only problem is that I occasionally have flashbacks that I'm on the set of "Beach Blanket Bingo" with Annette and Frankie while I'm listening to it. Reviewer: Lucas (Jonas Ridge, NC USA)

The Libertines "Don't Look Back into the Sun" 2003

...That August, around the time the Butler-produced single "Don't Look Back into the Sun" reached number 11 on the U.K. Singles chart -- their highest placement to date -- Doherty pled guilty, and also confessed to addictions to heroin and crack cocaine...
...In September, as a deluxe edition of Up the Bracket was released, he was sentenced to six months in jail. However, his sentence was reduced to two months on appeal, and with time off for good behavior, he was released in early October. Later that month, the complete Libertines lineup performed at the Rough Trade 25th Anniversary show. In November, Doherty played two shows in his own apartment that featured a mix of Libertines and Babyshambles songs. The Libertines closed out 2003 with a string of sold-out dates at the London Forum. Though "Don't Look Back into the Sun" was their only release that year, they won the NME Award for Best Band. - exerpt from the Biography by Heather Phares

Kim Fowley "Let's Get Blasted" 2013

Fowley's standing within the musical community faded over the course of the following decades, though he never truly went away, and in his later years, he worked with the likes of Ariel Pink and BMX Bandits...
...He continued recording for his small but avid cult following, most notably with 1980's Hollywood Confidential, 1993's Hotel Insomnia, and 1995's Kings of Saturday Night (a collaboration with Ben Vaughn), as well as two albums with a rotating cast of Detroit-based musicians, Michigan Babylon and Detroit Invasion. Fowley also partnered with Norton Records to release several collections of rarities from his catalog, and their affiliated publishing house Kicks Books issued a collection of his writings, Lord of Garbage. Fowley died on January 15, 2015 in West Hollywood, California after a battle with bladder cancer; he was 75 years old. - by Jason Anken

The Mighty Gordinis "For Bosomaniacs Only" 2002

Second album of Belgium's wildest hot rod surf rock&roll gang, the Mighty Gordinis (ex-Vice Barons), featuring among others their best song yet,'Mustang Driving Woman' with guestvocals of female American blues singer B.J. Scott. Paying homage to such classic surf and garage bands as The Trashmen, Link Wray, The Super Stocks and The Astronauts (quite frankly, any of Gary Usher's heralded '60s projects come to mind), The Mighty Gordinis rev the engine, jam it into first gear and take off to the beach with 10 hip tracks. - interpunk
This is what Rickyboy (a.k.a Eric KNOXX, a.k.a Ricky THUNDERS, a.ka. The man with the white Jaguar ) said about this record : "In 2002, the second LP, «FOR BOSOMANIACS ONLY», kinda visual tribute to RUSS MEYER, was only released on vinyl on DEMOLITION DERBY. Despite such fine tracks as "Mustang driving woman" or "American Revolution" nobody was really happy with this record as far as the sound was concerned. I spent hours and hours in the studio trying to fix the drum sound but is was crappy right from the start and there was no way to set it right". - from Ratboy69

This rather streaky set of music features Miles Davis with keyboardist Robert Irving III (who has since slipped into obscurity) and guitarist John Scofield contributing most of the compositions and the other solos...

Bruce & Terry "The Best of Bruce & Terry" 1966

American duo consisting of Bruce Johnston and Terry Melcher. Together they worked with bands such as The Rip Chords.
Stop pacing the floor, surf and hotrod aficionados; here's the collection you've awaited for decades, the package you feared might never see legitimate release, the definitive legacy of the missing third of the Jan & Dean/Beach Boys/Bruce & Terry triumvirate.
The Best Of Bruce & Terry illuminates two important missing links in the history of rock music: that between the Brill Building pop of the early 60's and surf and hotrod music, and the other between surf/rod and the folk-rock explosion of the mid-60's. But fear not, school-a-phobics, this is much more than mere history; it's the genesis of the California Sound, a jangly, upbeat celebration of summer, girls, cars and the ocean.
This package contains a total of 20 essential rides, all from the original master tapes; the charting singles "Custom Machine" and "Summer Means Fun," all other Columbia single sides, 4 rare cuts waxed under the name The Rogues, a slew of unreleased and first-time-stereo tracks, rare photos and extensive interviews (finally!) with Beach Boy Bruce Johnston and producer-wunderkind Terry Melcher. - sundered

The Libertines "Up The Bracket" 2002

The first British band to rival the garage rock revival sparked by the Strokes and White Stripes in the U.S., the Hives in Sweden, and the Datsuns in, er, New Zealand, the Libertines burst onto the scene with Up the Bracket, a debut album so confident and consistent that the easiest way to describe it is 2002's answer to Is This It. That's not just because singer / guitarist Pete Doherty's slurred, husky vocals sound like Julian Casablancas' with the added bonus of a fetching Cockney accent (or that both groups share the same tousled, denim-clad fashion sense); virtually every song on Up the Bracket is chock-full of the same kind of bouncy, aggressive guitars, expressive, economic drums, and irresistible hooks that made the Strokes' debut almost too catchy for the band's credibility…
...However, the resemblance is probably due more to the constant trading of musical ideas between the States and the U.K. than to bandwagon-jumping -- the Strokes' sound owes as much to Britpop sensations like Supergrass (who had the Libertines as their opening band on their 2002 U.K. tour) and Elastica as it does to American influences like the Stooges and the Velvet Underground. Likewise, the Libertines play fast and loose with four decades' worth of British rock history, mixing bits and bobs of British Invasion, mod, punk, and Britpop with the sound of their contemporaries.
On paper it sounds horribly calculated, but (also like the Strokes' debut) in practice it's at once fresh and familiar. Mick Jones' warm, not-too-rough, and not-too-polished production both emphasizes the pedigree of their sound and the originality of it: on songs like "Vertigo," "Death on the Stairs," and the excellent "Boys in the Band," the guitars switch between Merseybeat chime and a garagey churn as the vocals range from punk snarls to pristine British Invasion harmonies. Capable of bittersweet beauty on the folky, Beatlesque "Radio America" and pure attitude on "Horrorshow," the Libertines really shine when they mix the two approaches and let their ambitions lead the way. "Did you see the stylish kids in the riot?" begins "Time for Heroes," an oddly poetic mix of love and war that recalls the band's spiritual and sonic forefathers the Clash; "The Good Old Days" blends jazzy verses, martial choruses, and lyrics like "It's not about tenements and needles and all the evils in their eyes and the backs of their minds." On songs like these, "Tell the King," and "Up the Bracket," the group not only outdoes most of its peers but begins to reach the greatness of the Kinks, the Jam, and all the rest of the groups whose brilliant melodic abilities and satirical looks at British society paved the way. Though the album is a bit short at 36 minutes, that's long enough to make it a brilliant debut; the worst you can say about its weakest tracks is that they're really solid and catchy. Punk poets, lagered-up lads, London hipsters -- the Libertines play many different roles on Up the Bracket, all of which suit them to a tee. At this point in their career they're not as overhyped as many of their contemporaries, so enjoy them while they're still fresh.

The Morlocks "Uglier Than You'll Ever Be!" 1997

The Morlocks were a short-lived and lamented combo from the mid-1980s doing their level best to replicate being a combo from the mid-1960s. At this they succeeded admirably, as this grainy and midrangey live tape attests...
...If you didn' know this was a retro band plying their wares, you'd swear it was an impossibly rare reel-to-reel tape of some lost '60s garage combo, so well does the band work their voodoo. Everything's firmly rooted in the American teen combo imitating-the-Kinks- mold, and tracks like "I Need You," "I Got Nightmares," "Outside Looking In," "Leavin' Here," "Double Decker Bus" and "By My Side" truly deliver the goods. Not great sound, but a lot of style and panache served up in the Cars-Police era of rock history. You can go home again, some would say. - Review by Cub Koda

The Mighty Gordinis "Kiss My Wheels" 2000

Second album of Belgium's wildest hot rod surf rock&roll gang, the Mighty Gordinis (ex-Vice Barons), featuring among others their best song yet, 'Mustang Driving Woman' with guestvocals by female American blues singer B.J. Scott. Never change a winning team, so the Mighty Gordinis bring you more of their exciting mix of 70's punkrock, 60's surf & hot rod & 50's rock&roll, a balanced mix of vocal songs & choice instrumentals.
Surf-punk-hot rod-rock&roll from this band with strong connections to the Vice Barons. On these recordings you have the ex-VB guitarist & drummer, plus their roadie on bass, supported by Mighty Jack on guitar / vocals. 14 tracks of which half are instro's in the old VB vein (with support from ex-VB Vince on organ on all of the instrumental tracks). The missing link between Ronny & the Daytonas, the Trashmen, Gary Usher & the NY bands of the end of the 70's such as the Ramones, Cramps & Heart- breakers. 14 tracks of rock&roll. The band name comes from Amedée Gordini, former race driver, who in the late 70's developed the Renault Dauphine & then the Renault 8, which under Gordini version, became one of the most succesfull rally & racing cars of it's generation.

The Supertones "The Wet Set" 1996

Surf Music rules the universe and this group are its royal ambassadors. Their music is pure, simple and fun. - cdbaby
It's not just the playing, or indeed the strong material, but the sympathetically appropriate range of sounds they use on each track. These guys clearly care about capturing the sounds of the '60s, and they do it really well. If you wish The Ventures had stuck to covers or if The Challengers had been a touch more adventurous, then you're going to love this. On the other hand, if you fear that an album full of familiar titles will lack interest then think again. The arrangements are not exact copies and the feel generated by the band is pure joy, an experience I'd recommend to all RI fans. This is a classy album you will play right through over and over again." - Alan Taylor, Pipeline #51, Surrey, UK, Spring 2001

Kim Fowley "666" 2012

In 1975, after completing the LP Animal God of the Streets, Fowley returned to his Svengali role by assembling the notorious Runaways, a teenage hard rock girl group featuring a young Joan Jett, Lita Ford, and Cherie Currie...
...Designed as equal parts manufactured novelty and bid for female rock & roll domination, the group didn't sell many records in their original run but proved to be massively influential, and after the original group splintered, Fowley even launched another Runaways in the '80s. (Another girl group, the Orchids, was his idea as well, as were the Hollywood Stars, conceived as the L.A. answer to the New York Dolls.) Fowley became a mover and shaker in the early days of the Los Angeles punk scene, creating yet another manufactured band, Venus and the Razorblades, and staging "New Wave Nights" at Hollywood clubs, one of which spawned the early live album from the Germs, Germicide. - by Jason Anken

Barrence Whitfield & The Savages "Live Emulsified" 1989

Barrence Whitfield is the owner of one incredible pair of lungs and limitless energy and enthusiasm for his music. A soul screamer in the spirit of Little Richard, Wilson Pickett, Solomon Burke, and early Don Covay, Whitfield & the Savages, though never breaking big nationally, are a great cult act, a triumph of substance over style, with a bunch of terrific records to boot.
Barrence Whitfield and his second Savages lineup toured regularly. The band followed its first album, OW! OW! OW!, with this live set. Recorded in Los Angeles; Houston; and Austin, Texas; LIVE EMULSIFIED captures the members of the band at their most furious - some fans contend that the band's studio albums never matched the pure adrenaline rush of its live shows. Nevertheless, the albums that Barrence Whitfield & The Savages have produced all contain powerful individual performances. On LIVE EMULSIFIED, the band's soloists - saxophonist David Sholl, guitarist Milton Reder, and keyboardist Bruce Katz - are inventive and quick, improvising with precision while paying careful attention to the groove of each song. from: Answers.com

The Morlocks "Wake Me When I'm Dead" (live bootleg) 1991

Listen Loudest! provides a vehicle for bands from all over the world who meet their standards for loud, raucous records and tapes. This band is probably from California cuz all the cuts were taken from live gigs or studio recordings from Berkeley, L.A. or San Diego. My guess is that these Jegger obsessed, snotty attitude relics of the class of '66 hail from San Diego. They play the same "Girl You Better Straighten Up" brand of hairy brute music as the Untold Fables and Gravedigger V. The sound quality varies because it's taken from clubs with good mixes and clubs with bad mixes. - Debi Dip - Real Life In The Big City
They were the wildest band to come out of the US garage revival, that's for sure... no one matched those screams! I don't have a blog, but thought you might want to put up the Morlocks "Wake Me When I'm Dead" live bootleg (two studio cuts as well). It's pretty rare (if you look it up on the Bomp records site, they question if it even exists!). Only 500 copies made. They do some garage covers (Q-65, Count Five), but the strange thing is the funk thing start doing... Super Stupid included. They also cover The Nile Song by Pink Floyd. ANYWAY... I just got my vinyl back (a friend had it for about two years!) and I thought of you right away.
There is an official live record called "Uglier Than You'll Ever Be" which isn't very good, and another called "Submerged Alive", which I have read isn't live at all. I would be really happy to hear Submerged Alive again if you have it. - Rob Tyner

Perry Dear & The Deerstalkers "Six-String Holiday" 2020

After four successful EP’s and one remarkable single release, the first full-lengt LP from Perry Dear & The Deerstalkers is finally here. With this record, the boys consolidate their posisjon as the leaders of the Norwegian beat-groups...
...The album was recorded with so-called multi-track techniques, which allows a bigger and more diversified sound than what the groups lineup would indicate. It is with great pleasure that we at Jansen Records can ascertain that the group’s combined musical knowledge and skills have found the way onto the grooves of this record.
We are absolutely positive that this record will be a summer hit, both at the beach parties that are so popular these days, and on living room turntables all over the world. - bandcamp

The Mighty Gordinis "Burnout in Vegas" 1999 - 12"/45rpm EP + "LES GORDINIS CHERCHENT L'AMOUR" 2004 - 12"/45rpm EP

Gasoline-drenched surf'n roll from Belgium. The Mighty Gordinis are the successors of the legendary Vice Barons.
"these Belgians got a lot of mighty might, apart from knowing surf standards inside out, they do know how to rock and to roll. Get this nicely designed EP and dig smashers like 'Shake My Iguana' or 'Thunderbird Stomp'!" (OX #38)
"3 Instrumentals, very remindful of the Vice Barons, where their guitarist Ricky played before, and 2 vocal pieces of the finest. Cool frat rock'n roll sound spiced by a Farfisa organ and a total party smash. Ten points!" (RIVERSIDE JUNIOR #4)

Kim Fowley "21st Century Youth" 2012

In the mid-'60s, Fowley became immersed in the Los Angeles counterculture, befriending Frank Zappa and his band the Mothers of Invention, and later appearing on their Freak Out! LP...
...A prolific songwriter, he also composed material recorded by the Byrds, Cat Stevens, Them, and Kiss, and produced the likes of Gene Vincent, Warren Zevon, Soft Machine, and Helen Reddy. Finally, in 1967 Fowley issued his own solo debut, Love Is Alive and Well, a record that found him closely aligned with the flower power movement. (Fowley also claimed to have staged the first "love-in" in Los Angeles.) A series of solo records followed, including 1968's suitably titled Outrageous, 1970's The Day the Earth Stood Still, and 1973's International Heroes, but none garnered the commercial success of so many of his other projects. - by Jason Anken

The Unclaimed "Primordial Ooze Flavored" 2021

Before The Coal Porters, there was The Long Ryders, and before The Long Ryders there was...
...The Unclaimed. Sid Griffin's first 'proper' band now hold a cult status as far as the sixties/garage/psychedelic revival that grew up around Los Angeles in the early 1980s is concerned and are for some the epitome of the garage resurgence. Their look, sound and whole attitude to garage music at once both encouraged the likes of Steve Wynn to establish their own bands, whilst The Unclaimed themselves rem ained firmly rooted in the sound and look of 1966.

Barrence Whitfield & The Savages "Ow Ow Ow" 1988

Barrence Whitfield (real name Barry White, no joke) is the owner of one incredible pair of lungs and limitless energy and enthusiasm for his music!
Is it the best Savages album ever made? Well, it's my favorite and I'm writing this entry, so there. This was the first record with the "New" Savages, and the turn is to more original material. Guitarist Milton Reder's "Madhouse" is a wonderful fit for Barry's voice, as is sax player David Scholl's "I Don't Dig Your Noise." But the payoff is the Reder-penned "Girl From Outer Space," which Barry sings in a falsetto scream that is dazzling (he even riffs on Sun Ra at the end of the song). What makes this the strongest Whitfield/Savages album is its variety, and the fact that Barry's voice is strong and versatile enough to bring more nuance and emotion to the material. Why this wasn't a big hit for them I'll never know; it's a fine, fine record. - John Dougan, All Music Guide
