The store gets great stuff BUT...NOT good prices. He gouges ya! He's a moody and sleazy guy. I'm not gonna even begin to get into any of the stories I do know about the fucked up ways he does business. I just want to urge y'all to avoid the temptation of his great selection and not support the guy. I've noticed that usually when stuff he has is available elsewhere it's usually more affordable. I guess Greg Shaw is friends with him. Okay, whatever. Nevertheless, I fully support Bomp who, much like Micheal described Norton, like their customers and treat them right. Plus they offer great selection and more than reasonable prices.

First off no one responded so far to this description: A song called "Just Like Me" (not Paul Revere and the Raiders). One version is by the Scorpions (Holland) on Crypt's Transworld Punk Vol.1. But, I also saw this 60's video clip of a band featuring two black singers and a white drummer doing this song surrounded by bunny tailed go go girls. I assume that's the original. Remember, it starts off with "Mary had a little lamb.." and in the middle they go "Hey diddle diddle the cat and the fiddle...". Who is it?!? Don't you know, GREG? Number two: The song, "Almost There"-There's a version on Garage Punk Unknowns #8 by The Spirits (from Hawaii) and a version by Try Cerz on Scum of the Earth. Who did it originally, is it an old blues song or what? "I've got ten more miles/I'm gonna see my baby" Answer me damnit!!!

Not well received. I recall this readily because several friends played in his band at some point. Definitely NOT the original lineup since the 60's. One bass player I knew did several gigs with him; his opinion of the ? attitude was not high, so he declined further involvement, but only after trying to recruit me for an audition. Since I had only heard bad things about it, I nixed it. Too Chuck Berry for me. Can't say I'm sorry.
