THE SAME TWO ABOVE QUESTIONS APPLY.... Charles Manson. 3. WHO ARE THE HOTTEST/SEXIST BOMP-RELATED ROCKERS? Sorry, but it's either Debbie Harry, or the hippie's dreamboat Michelle Phillips. 4.

I'm a serious pack-rat; not only do I hit at least one flea-market/thrift shop/yard sale every week, but I *never* throw anything away. It's pretty scary. A swell score last summer; while visiting my in-laws one day, my mother-in-law asked me if I wanted any old records (lp's), before she tossed them (they were all ready to go to the dump). I said "Sure, I'll check 'em". In the box was Pink Floyd's first, G. Dead's first (mono), etc., and a bunch of promos from a Boston radio station: Bohemian Vendetta, Savage Resurrection, Autosalvage, Mortimer, and lot's more. My wife said "I think there's more at the farm". At her family farm in Maine, I found Eden's Children (2 different) Wonderwall Music and more. Also a stack of 45's including a great single by The What? that covers "Summertime" on the a-side and on the b-side is a classic Dylan rip-off "The Escape" that is a note-for note swipe of "All Along the Watchtower", but with altered lyrics and a mighty fuzzed-out guitar. Credited to "Rob Dillon" on the label. Thanks for letting me get that off my chest. 6. WHO DO YOU WISH YOU COULD HAVE SEEN FROM THE 1950S: 1960S; AND 70'S, WHO YOU COULDN'T NOW POSSIBLY SEE PERFORM LIVE?

The incident definitely happened in Van Nuys, California. In any event, Arthur will be incarcerated for 8 years due to California's "three strikes" law.

The clip of A Message To Pretty was included on a compilation tape of random clips I got recently, so it's possible they did this on Where The Action Is, not American Bandstand. They seemed to be dressed the same as in the Little Red Book clip I have, but I haven't really compared the two. Thankfully there's no VH1 logo in either of them.

IF SO, EXPLAIN YOUR ODESSEY OF THOUGHT... George had the best hair (for a while anyway) and was generally the most handsome. Gotta look out for those quiet types though. Nowadays I tend to appreciate Paul, as he's taken a larger interest in current music as well as his own obvious business intersts. 2. WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE MONKEE? THE SAME TWO ABOVE QUESTIONS APPLY.... Chim Chim. He was treated as a sidekick, but always contributed more than he was given credit for. Spridle would've never made it without him. 3. WHO ARE THE HOTTEST/SEXIST BOMP-RELATED ROCKERS? Bomp rockers aren't sexy. They're snarly, snotty and anemic. 4. FASHION: DO YOU HAVE FAVORITE ITEMS OF CLOTHING THAT APPLY TO THE MUSIC DISCUSSED ON THIS LIST? (do you dress the part?) WHAT ROCKERS HAVE INFLUENCED YOUR FASHION?(, IF APPLICABLE...) Well that's a rather personal question. I wear my chelsea boots with gym socks and one of those 1963 Stones era leather vests. Sometimes I set the outfit off with some paisley boxers, but most often not. That's pretty mod, isn't it? 5. BRAG TO US ABOUT YOUR COLLECTABLES, MEMORABILIA, RARE REKKIDS, ETC. I have the bag of potato chips that the Shadows of Knight flexi came in, but I ate the flexi. One of the potato chips looks just like Henry Kissinger. 6. WHO DO YOU WISH YOU COULD HAVE SEEN FROM THE 1950S: 1960S; AND 70'S, WHO YOU COULDN'T NOW POSSIBLY SEE PERFORM LIVE? The Monks. I hear they did a killer Kyrie Elaison The Electric Prunes. Full of Fiber! The Small Faces. Steve was cute with a moustache. Creation. The Event smashing TV's doesn't come close. Tiny Tim.

I also found the same reference but with grey label and with a sleeve (red lips in front and bondage/murder on back sleeve). Even Mark Taylor and Peter Tillman never saw this sleeve issue.

I don't have any rare garage records 'cause they're too likely to be old and smelly. Whoops, I have Paul Revere's greatest hits in mono. That's gotta' be worth something.

WHO DO YOU WISH YOU COULD HAVE SEEN FROM THE 1950S: Buddy Holly, Maybe all three plane wreck victims. 1960S; MC5, it seems as though most of the garage/surf (especially the latter) was too restrained live.

Hey Gang, I found some crazy 45's recently, anybody know anything about these babies? #1 The U.F.O. Run Away Boy b/w Lucky This is a super crude pre-teen garager with playing abilities slightly better than the Shaggs. Love those pre-puberty vocals! No Label #2 The Stix 'N' Stones - Sometimes Good Guys don't Wear White b/wAll I Really Want To Do on the Impex label out of Philly Pa. This has more reverb than I have ever heard on a record of this sort. So much that the drums almost double on top of each other, crazy! #3 Question for Greg- The Medallions 45 Leave Me Alone from Wisconsin on Warped records was written by Ralph Mullin. Could this be the Ralph Mullin who turned up In The H.G. Lewis Classics Blast Off Girls, Just For The Hell Of It and She Devils On Wheels? He was the drummer for the Big Blast aka Faded Blue. Maybe the record or group is from Illionis? #4 The Druids - It's A Day on Columbia The question is, Are these guys Limeys or what? They sound like it to me ? That's it for today more weird records coming your way soon!

Not exactly a fashion plate, I know, but hey, I was camping and it was COLD! I hope you've has as much fun reading this as I did writing it... I just realized that this is the pefect forum to ask a question I have agonized over for a long, long time: Years ago, on Nick at Night, I saw an episode of "Gidget" where she falls for a guitar-weilding, denim-clad beatnick/badboy with a motorcylce. He's a rebel, and during the show he serenades Gidget with an acoustic version of the song "Blow Your Mind", by (I don't remember the name o' the groop)..."Our hair's too long, our music's wrong, and we're too immature..." I couldn't believe it! Has anyone seen this episode? Who played the beatnick/badboy and how did they ever decide to use that song? Is the actor in question a member of the band that wrote the song? Also, in unrelated matters, does anyone know of a Doc Martins website or a shooo store that has a killer selection? A Domestic store is preferred, but Europe is okay too.
