The reason I post this, however, is that the liners to the 'Best Of Bomp' LP (1978) state that the Shoes self-released *three* LPs before their Bomp single, "Tomorrow Night" (1978). Now, I've always loved the unique (and actually quite psychedelic) sound quality on 'Black Vinyl Shoes', which never resurfaced on the later "better produced" Shoes LPs that I've heard. I had always assumed that 'Black Vinyl Shoes' was their first release (recorded in '76 and '77). Can anyone fill me in on the details of the other two self-released LPs -- recording dates, track listing, etc? Were these reissued at any time, and do they sound anything like 'Black Vinyl Shoes'? If this isn't the right list for this query, I don't know what is. Thanks in advance.

However, their upcoming disc on Lookout (due Jan. 26th, I think, but promos are around) is very Runaways-influenced.

And the couple times we've talked over the years (he's up in Massachusetts, I'm in NJ, just outside NYC, so it's not too often), he's been a very nice guy... just a bit out there. But he's one of those characters that make rock'n'roll so much fun. PJ used to be involved with Fuzbrains fanzine. (In fact, I think he did a special edition for Cave Stomp last Fall.) Also involved with that was Reverend Joe Longone, who published a book in '91 or so entitled _The Great Rock'n'Roll Survey (1980s)_ which basically surveyed a bunch of people into cool music for their picks on great music for that decade. It was very Massachusetts-centric ('cuz those are the people whose arms Joe could twist into finishing the survey), then compiled the "Best of" lists and had writeups on them (mainly by Joe). However, it also included an essay by WFMU DJ Bill Kelly, plus another by Captain PJ.

Here is a thought that I've harboured for a long time after reading time and time again about the Remains nearly moving to Captitol. Is it not simply possible that Capitol invited The Remains to record a short "live" set just to see if they could cut the mustard for the Beatles tour? Does anyone know if the demo was recorded before or after the tour? Also, why would the Remains want to switch from Epic (hey, they had the Yardbirds) to Capitol? Oh well it's just a another stupid rock'n'roll theory.

I used to have a friend who could have answered these questions but.... Now in response to Brian Phillips statement: Thanks for the info about Lee Andrews and the Hearts. I read an interview with him eons ago, about how he did his best to recruit the best in the group. Sounds like he succeeded! >> It should be pointed out that Lee Andrews and The Hearts and The Hearts that included Rex Garvin were two different groups all together. And it gets even more confusing because of some similar song titles! Now as long as we Brian has brought up the topic of Lee Andrew & The Hearts in leads to a new question, does anybody know anything about a label called Lana Records? I picked up two Lee Andrews & The Hears singles on Lana but when I looked them up in the Goldmine Price Guide there were no listing for Lana, are these bootlegs? Basically here are the details (as I'm sure you really care); 1) Teardrops b/w The Girl Around The Corner (Lana Records 112) the price guide lists the releases of this single having been: Argo Records #1000 (1957), Chess Records #1675 (1957), Grand Records #156 (1962) and Main Line Records #105 (1962) 2) Long & Lonely Nights b/w The Clock (Lana Records 110) the price guide lists the releases of this single having been: Chess Records #1665 (1957), Grand Records #157 (1962), Main Line Records #102 (1962) So does anybody know about Lana Records.

With some of that inconsistency came some great vocal and instrumental arrangement ideas. All of their albums (CDs) have been reissued on Repertoire records from Germany. My favorite Easybeats album is Volume 3, with the great single "Sorry" and 23 other tracks, including the original album and early demos that are outstanding. "Friday On My Mind" is a good album too, but all of the albums best tracks are on the 2-CD collection called "Aussie Beat That Shook The World." The 2-CD set and Volume 3 pretty much cover the best of what the band did, and make you feel that the money you spent on the imports was well worth it. Cheers!

Well, that's where the Runaways comparison comes in, then! I haven't heard the new Donnas lp yet, but if it sounds anything like the Runaways (or Kiss for that matter), I bet I'll love it. The Runaways (formed in LA?) featured Joan Jett and Lita Ford, and that combo should give you an inkling into their sound, too. Not so much garage as glam/metal rock'n'roll, they still rocked. Have ya ever heard Cherry Bomb? The band was split on which scene they wanted to be a part of, though (punk or metal), and that's what ultimately led to the band breaking up and launching the solo careers of Jett and Ford.

At the time they were seniors in Palo Alto High School in Bay Area and I heard they were going to split because they were going to college. I knew they played Tokyo and Wisconsin besides in California, but are they still doing lots of tours in the States? (I don't know how it's possilbe if they are supposedly at different colleges.)

They do this great song called "Same Old Song" which we can't find on the albums we have. There are two different lead singers -- one lead singer (lighter hair, square glasses) is on one of the videos and the other lead singer (darker hair, bushy eyebrows) sings this song. We aren't familiar with the name of the lead singers, but we know that the lead guitarist is Eddie Phillips and that Ron Wood was once in the band. Our question is, where can we find this song? Is it an original or a cover?
