The Hairy Fairies Mojo, just save some cash aside cause I'm sure you gonna buy the forthcoming Max Picou release anyway ! I'm currently working with Gianni on a Embrooks 7'', the songs are total KILLERS, and there's gonna be a special package with the record... in fact a zine, whom the totality will be devoted to Mole, his "history", and all the bands in which he's been implied so far... interviews, pictures, comix, complete discography, etc, etc... the whole stuff should be out sometimes during the spring. I agree with you, Max Picou rds is a mix of very good (Loons, but also Mc Kinleys LP, What 4 7'') and less interesting stuff (La Secta, and Hairy Fairies LP, the last one having bored me after 2 spins), but Gianni is a total garage-addict, whom tastes are wide... i've interviewed him for the forthcoming issue of my zine, he told me that Max Picou was devoted to avoid any specific sound, or imagery. The name of his label comes even from the name of his cat, 'cause he wanted to avoid the classic "gravedigger /back from the grave" stuff . So, here's the label: just the hobbie of a guy, passionated by all the forms garage music can have, who just want to issue some records by the bands he loves (he's a big fan of La Secta and Mystreated ), whatever the way they sound. He'd love to issue some stuff from Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, and from Mr Zero if it was possible, but a Woggles should also be on its way... kinda label where there's some goodies for everybody. Anyway, whatever you think, support Max Picou, one of the two garage labels that are trying to survive in shitty Switzerland, where nobody give a fuck about what they're doing (the other one being Voodoo Rhythm rds). sylvain / Switzerland ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 22 Jan 1999 12:21:31 +0000 From: boldface@easynet.co.uk Subject: all the hits >I also when I was very young (1966 or so) bought a box of 12 "hit" >singles at Woolworth's Dept.

I got to meet Hugh on The Muffs/Queers/Cub tour in the summer of '95. I went five nights in a row (Philly, NYC, New Haven, Providence, and Boston) and spent a good deal of time hanging out with the various band members. Of The Queers, I found Hugh (and 2nd guitarist on that tour, Eric) to be very outgoing, fun people. I'd read somewhere that he had cancer (and that it was the reason he left the band), but I'd always hoped it was just a rumor. Sadly, it wasn't.

'98 Coney Island High, New York City; November 21-23, 1998 Score: 88 The second annual Cavestomp "garage-rock festacular" exemplified that peculiarly '90s phenomenon: the revival of a revival. The '60s rock revival that spawned a garage-rock subculture in the mid-'80s was itself revived by Cavestomp's promoters, who booked three generations of beat appreciators, including '60s psych/punk act the Pretty Things, Reagan-era rebels the Raunch Hands, and upstart fuzz fiends from the United States (the Conquerors), Japan (the 5,6,7,8's), and Spain (the Nuggets). The highlights flew by like a GTO: Seeds singer Sky Saxon backed by the Mysterians; New York '80s scenemakers the Fuzztones bringing Vanilla Fudge guitarist Vinnie Martell onstage for the Count Five's "Psychotic Reaction"; and the Chesterfield Kings, whose pudding-bowl dos shocked audiences during the Flock of Seagulls era, backing legendary Paul Revere & the Raiders singer Mark Lindsay. Even without his white tights and tricornered hat, Lindsay vibrated with the spirit of '67. The weekend's emotional highlight was a reunion of Boston's Barry and the Remains, who opened for the Beatles on the Fabs' last tour and are widely considered the best '60s band that never broke through. Thrilled to be reunited, they performed so wondrously that the sardine-packed crowd lowered its typical hipster facade, letting loose a stream of unabashed emotion. As the group returned for an encore, someone voiced the crowd's feeling: "F- the Beatles! You guys are better!" -Dawn Eden ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 22 Jan 1999 10:05 From: "Keith A. Queensen" Subject: re: 45 Boxed Sets? I'm from Minneapolis and I remember those Woolworths "box sets" when I was growing up. You could see one single exposed on the top and then the rest would be a surprise. I was 10 or 11 at the time, and bought a bunch of those boxes. In retrospect I wish I could have bought a hundred more as some of the best 45's in my collection came from those things. At the time, I had never heard of most of the artists on those 45s but later came to realize that they included some very rare girl group, surf instrumental and psychedelica recordings. Also scored a bunch of cool picture sleeves in these boxes--Sam the Sham and the Pharoahs, Manfred Mann, the Detergents, and even a Bob Dylan which I believe is quite rare. I remember once at Woolworths they had a huge table/bin with 100s of old 45s going 10 for a dollar. Even as a kid, I thought picture sleeves were cool, and found a bunch of records that are still among the best in my collection. Unfortunately, back in those days, I usually did not have more than a dollar to my name at any one time, and can't help but think of the countless treasures I passed by. Years later, as an adult, I found some great $1.00 albums at Woolworths, including records by Big Star and ? and the Mysterians. Today, all the Woolworths in Minnesota have closed down, and the records I used to score for a dime or a dollar can be found at a downtown collectors store for between $10 and $40. Some of these boxes have got to be sitting in a warehouse somewhere! Best wishes, Keith Queensen, Minneapolis day, January 22, 1999 3:45 AM, mail@ih (David J.

Slim headed down to Shoreditch to find out who was recording at Toe Rag and ask if they'd be interested in playing a show that night. Luckily for us it was The MGE and they kindly agreed to head over to Tufnell Park that evening. I can quite honestly say, and DJ Paul will confirm this, that we were lucky enough to witness one of the most crazed r'n'b bands in search of the benzedrine beat (© The Big Three). There were only a dozen people in the Boston Arms that night and non of them were ready for those Japanese guys. Pub Rock gets a bad name these days, and sometimes on the Bomp List too if one recalls the recent posts about the Inmates, so it was very refreshing to see those guys climb on the stage in their skinny black suits, loudly proclaim "We Are Pub Rock Band From Japan" and then kick the shit out of their instruments. I tell you folks; Slim, Paul and I were looking at one another and saying "Where the hell did these guys come from?". In short they made many of our garage bands in the UK sound like feeble trash. I URGE anyone within spitting distance of this band to make an extra special effort and check them out. OK, so they're big stars in Japan now, so big deal, 'cause except for the Woggles show last November I ain't seen a high energy show like it for some time. [The Fleshtones excluded bien entendu]. Oh yeah, and if anyone starts taking the mick out of Pub Rock again I'll be wading in to sort 'em out.

Tee & Thee Crumpets will have a 8 song CD available in early February. We'll be sending copies to folks with cool radio shows (email me), cool zines (email us or send us a copy) and cool labels. Other folks will have the opportunity to part with a little bit of money (although we're working out the details). There are two RealAudio tracks from the CD on the web site. Shows: THIS FRIDAY! at Old Ironsides in Sacramento with The Shruggs, The Flakes and The Hostiliteens February 6th with Dr. Explosion and The Flakes at The Purple Onion in San Francisco a few more are booked ... check the web site.

Anyway, I'll send you a couple copies in exchange for your cd... and then I'll review it. Plus I'm hoping to get into Old Ironsides somehow (I'm under age) to see you guys and the Flakes. Anyway, let me know. And tell me where I can send the zines.
