Smith" Date: Mon, 29 Jul 1996 10:01:44 -0400 Subject: tv/ radio collectors having spent some time in the netherworld of tv collectors I should mention that... none of the big radio air-check collectors have any Dave Diamond tapes (yes he was an LA are DJ) it's very frustrating tracking that crap down... although they got tapes of the Mad Daddy, Hot Rod Rog Christian, etc... I have seen a comp of french canadian rock videos... some are from kinescopes (black & white film from a tv screen) others better quality films, etc... some look like they were shown on much music or it's quebec equivalent The most famous 13th floor elevators appearance is the commonly avail Where the Action Is appearance (how odd/ lucky that of the first 20 or so Actions in collectors hand one included the elevators...) I am unaware of a Music Machine tape currently available... is this video or audio? all bands lip-sync on American Bandstand (except BB King) so video is of most importance... The 13th Floor elevators had many tv appearances in TX of which I have a few on bootleg or semi-legit lps... I have not seen any other films although I may forward this to King Coffey- he's friends with Roky...

(Sorry if someone found this earlier, but I'm fairly new to the list.) There's a smoking version of this cut on a Monster Magnet import CD single "Look to Your Orb for the Warning." The rest of this disc is marginal (16 minutes of electronic noodling based on the movie "Forbidden Planet" is for fans only). And $9 a pop is pricey even for demented collectors, but what the hey it's only money. I understand that the Nomads (from Sweden) remade this, but I haven't had a chance to compare the two. But if you liked the original, you'll love the remake from Monster Magnet.

I seem to recall seeing mention of the Cynics somewhere, so I suspect they're garage/pysch-pop oriented. As for the Hypnotics, I've never heard of them before, but have seen a modestly priced cd with band members mugging on the cover- looking more than a little like the packaging of the Stooges' Funhouse. Is this stuff worthwhile? - -F ------------------------------ From: "Derek Grime" Date: Mon, 29 Jul 1996 19:17:42 -0400 Subject: Re: Ug & the Cavemen > the only time I went to see them (with the same pal who has all the 'tones > videos) the show was cancelled. Your pal doesn't have any Ug shows on video, does he? I know there were a couple of Stingrays videos released... - -- - -------------------------------------------------------------------- Derek Grime EMail: derek@coredp.com C.O.R.E.
