Hi Hitomi: It's sung in English. You can get it through the label Big Deal (www.bigdeal.com) or through online distributors like Not Lame (www.notlame.com).

But I was really pleasantly surprised at how good the Link Protrudi and The Raymen CD is. It's real tough sounding Link Wray-style instros. This guy was doing this type sound well before the mid-90's instro craze hit, and he had an authentic sound. Well worth picking up! Too bad some will pass on it cause it's Rudi Protrudi. Pete ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 07:28:19 EST From: PETEP@aol.com Subject: Re: Peruvian Garage and more new stuff I just played the Peruvian garage CD, "Sons Of Yma" and I must agree that it's mostly aces! (among the originals, there are wild Spanish versions of Trashmens"King Of The Surf", Mysterians"I Need Somebody", Paul Revere"Just Like Me", Standells"What Have I Got Of My Own", Merry Dragons"Universal Vagrant" as well as some others.)Well worth the low list price that is asked for the 25 track CD. I'm not sure who put this out, but it does mention that the transfers were done on a billion dollar turntable with a million dollar mono cartridge. So with that evidence, could it be the work of Greg Shaw?

While they aren't garage classics, "Some Other >Guy," "What'd I Say" and "Hippy Hippy Shake" are as "common" beat covers as >"Little Girl," "1-2-5," and "Sometimes Good Guys Don't Wear White" I often wonder if I would've gotten into the garage scene if I hadn't already been into Mersey-styled stuff. Even in junior high/high school (late 70s/early 80s) I was into the early Beatles and things of that ilk. When in '82 or so I discovered that a guy I knew from junior high had a band that played this kinda thing (The Mosquitos), I flipped out. In the early days, that's what The Mosquitos were about... they were doing Some Other Guy, The Hippy Hippy Shake, Let's Stomp, etc. Over time they also did songs by The Denisons (a fantastic "Be My Girl" with excellent vocal arrangements) and The Merseybeats, among others. The Mosquitos eventually also started doing Good Guys as time went on, along with many originals, mostly in the 60s-influenced pop mold, although there were also some stompers and garage growlers involved ("Darn Well" is still one of my favorite songs of the 80s.) My point is that I, too, love hearing Beat stuff. That's why I'm always thrilled to see The Kaisers, or hear the Neatbeats' disc, or get a new King Normals 45. To quote The Spectors...

It's good stuff. But I was >really pleasantly surprised at how good the Link Protrudi and The Raymen >CD >is. It's real tough sounding Link Wray-style instros. That's *Jaymen,* Pete! (Anyone know if this was 'cuz Michael Jay was in the band? Seems likely.) I remember a Link Protrudi & the Jaymen show at the Southern Funk Cafe on 42nd St. between 8th & 9th in the Summer of '86 or so. (I think The A-Bones were also on the bill.) Simply put, it was phenomenal. They were like nobody else on the scene at the time. There'd been a couple instro outfits playing (most notably The Tidal Waves), but that was all surf. Here came Rudi belting out wild Link Wray style material and blowing everyone out of the water. ------------------------------ Date: 12 Feb 99 08:11:41 +0000 From: "Blair" Subject: Stagger Lee >> - Stagger Lee and Billy Lyons are playing Chess and Stagger castles. >>Billy declares Checkmate, they argue for a moment, pick some wildflowers >>and take their wives to church afterwards. >> >Yes, I think that's exactly right, except you forgot the part about the >blender. Seems to me I've seen a ton of different versions (just do a search on Stagger Lee...), but they all basically agree that Stagger Lee shot Billy after an argument over gambling. I've listed a couple sets of lyrics I found in a quick search below, but I'm pretty sure that there's a much longer story involved. If I can dig up my American Folklore books, I'll print out what I find. Blair Here's one set of lyrics... - --- Stagger Lee 1948, Xmas eve, with a full moon over town Stagger Lee shot Billy DeLions And he blew that poor boy down. Do you know what he shot him for? What do you make of that? Cause Billy DeLions threw the lucky dice Won Stagger Lee's Stetson hat. Bayo, Bayo, tell me how can this be? You arrest the girls for turning tricks But you're scared of Stagger Lee. Stagger Lee is a madman and he shot my Billy D. Bayo go get him or give the job to me. Delia DeLions, dear sweet Delia-D How the hell can I arrest him? He's twice as big as me. Well don't ask me to go downtown, I won't come back alive [no more]. Not only is that mother big but he packs a .45 [four]. Bayo, Delia said, just give me a gun he shot my Billy dead now I'm gonna see him hung. She went into the DeLion's club through Billy DeLions blood Stepped up to Stagger Lee at the bar, Said, "Buy me a gin fizz, love." As Stagger Lee lit a cigarette she shot him in the balls Blew the smoke off her revolver, had him dragged to city hall Bayo, Bayo, see you hang him high He shot my Billy dead and now he's got to die. Delia went a walking down on Singapore Street A three-piece band on the corner played "Near My God to Thee" But Delia whistled a different tune, what tune could it be? The song that woman sung was "Look Out Stagger Lee". The song that Delia sung was "Look Out Stagger Lee". - --- Here's another: - --- I WAS STANDIN' ON A CORNER WHEN I HEARD MY BULLDOG BARK HE WAS BARKIN' AT THE TWO MEN WHO WERE GAMBLIN' IN THE DARK NOW IT WAS STAGGER LEE AND BILLY TWO MEN WHO GAMBLE LATE STAGGER LEE THREW A SEVEN BILLY SWORE THAT HE THREW EIGHT NOW STAGGER LEE HE TOLD BILLY "I CAN'T LET YOU GO WITH THAT YOU DONE WON ALL MY MONEY AND MY BRAND NEW STETSON HAT" SO, STAGGER LEE HE WENT HOME AND HE GOT HIS FORTY-FOUR HE SAID, "I'M GOIN TO THE BAR ROOM JUST TO PAY THAT DEBT I OWE" STAGGER LEE WENT TO THE BAR ROOM AND HE STOOD ACROSS THE BAR ROOM FLOOR HE SAID, "NOW NOBODY MOVE" AND HE PULLED HIS FORTY-FOUR "STAGGER LEE", CRIED BILLY "OH PLEASE DON'T TAKE MY LIFE I'VE GOT THREE LITTLE CHILDREN AND A VERY SICKLY WIFE" WELL, STAGGER LEE, HE SHOT BILLY, HE SHOT THAT POOR BOY SO BAD THE BULLET WENT THROUGH BILLY AND IT BROKE THE BARTENDERS GLASS OOH!

That last version of Stagger Lee that Blair wrote looks like the one that Lloyd Price had a hit with (if you add the opening lines "The night was dark and the moon was yellow and the leaves came tumbling down" or something like that). There's a version called "Stack-O-Lee" by Archibald on the first Chicken Shack Boogie cd (available through Norton - great r&b comp). In that version Stack-O-Lee gets shot by somebody (sounds like Stagger Lee - it's kind of confusing because I think he then tells his mother he's been shot by a "police .44") But anyway he dies and goes to see the devil...

I just want to know one thing...all you other groovy radio hosts can answer this: In the three years I've done this show, practically NOBODY has ever called! I sware, the calls I get are either wrong numbers, or people who want to hear the Beastie Boys. When some other person fills in, the whole city calls up to tell them the show is great!

However, this isn't true because Erin "go-go girl" Truscott apparently dee-jayed this past weekend and had guys panting on the phone!! Dans le Garage is apparently the station's most popular radio show and is the 2nd most popular radio show amongst all of the province's College Radio staions (the first one beeing Flipped-Out's Subterranean Jungle, the world's greatest garage radio show!), so this is a mystery to me! I remember when somebody called and asked for the Hollies 3 months ago...I almost asked him to marry me!!!

Oh yeah... One day I was listening to my mom's cassette of Razor & Tie's "When I Stop Dreaming: Best Of The Louvin Brothers." I was really liking their lyrics and harmonies, on songs like the title track and "I Don't Believe You've Met My Baby," when I came across this song about some girl begging for mercy as some guy beats her with a stick until the ground is soaked red with her blood. I haven't been able to listen to that tape since... :) I don't know if this goes with the topic covered here, but nobody's mentioned "He's Waitin'" by the Sonics, where he tells his cheating girl that Satan found out about her running around, and warns her "it's too late, you lied, now you will fry..." Long about way of telling her to "go to hell." Dave || "Every new beginning comes from another beginning's end..." || || David J.

Maybe all her incessant record playing when I was a tike somehow brainwashed the soundz into my brain. Tony some of my 2 cents. Pandoras were great at the start, I saw them loads of times with the various lineups. I even was fortunate to see Paula in an earlier group called the Direct hits. I never even bothered seeing them when they went for the harder metal edge sounding stuff. Although the video was hilarious! I was good friend with Melanie at the time, and she even said, "Tony, you're gonna hate it". Ha! I never dug the Fuzztones that much, some of their singles were cool as well as some of their earlier gigs, but to me they were a bit too "cartoon garage" for me. I preferred the acts like the Kings or Hearts that tried to recreate the 60's look and sound on stage and vinyl. While some could argue that recreating a 60's look and sound to the tee is cartoon as well, to me it was the best!! Hopefully everyone understands what I mean by that. Don't mean to downplay anyone, it's just an opinion. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 14:11:16 -0800 From: danman76@juno.com Subject: Re: Misognynist lyrics I think it was Joanna that said: >....And if the band wails I don't give a rats bum what the lyrics are, misogynist, sexist or otherwise - cross reference my anti valentines day list for proof!!!...and lighten up please!!!.< Though I agree with you somewhat (well, maybe not at all- I feel the lyrics are as important as the music), I think Kopper made some pretty good points in his post the other day, that you can't say "I like all black folk, except for those two niggers that live upstairs" and not be considered racist. There's a big difference between "No Good Woman" and "Smell The Glove", hopefully most people on this list can recognize that. I'm not going to say where to draw the line, the listener has to decide for himself. Most 60s "punk" songs were about cheating or wayward girlfriends, and most of peoples Valentine's Day postings reflected this. I don't think we need to get Tipper Gore involved in this, but hopefully people listen with open ears. It also comes down to whether or not you feel bands like the Avengers were joking or not in their "Be A Caveman" song. Something about the music seems pretty tongue-in-cheek.

So----which would you rather root for?-the Kings' (the inverse-)--old band---who know EXACTLY what the're doing (and influenced half the people with bands that complain about them on the lists )+Common covers ....OR band X---played in pearl Jam cover band-then nirvana type group fading into britpop who saw "Austin Powers" and then ran out and bought the new "Creation CD SET"/decca comps./psych@abbey road/etc.etc.(ALLeasily found @ANY BIG Store!) and learned a few tunes from it and decided to dress-up for weekends like "those guys" in the liner-note pictures/austin powers-yet continue to act as though they are still in a pearl jam/britpop group....and by chance if they find themselves at a reasonably cool gig-and notice that the people there are slightly older and dont look like they shop @Le Chateau or act like the're in a mtv/much video...the say-ug-nerds and are confused by the fact thet the music is really cool---they have no conception that this "scene" has existed for years and will continue to exist despite the mainstreams' flirtation with it!.... the Kings get my vote.(For what it's worth I LOVED "dont open till doomsday,anyways!!) Dont get me wrong tho'----i'd still like to hear the Kings do their take of some different, more obscure stuff---and have it live up to everybodys expectations, but ...I'm sure they will put out ANOTHER ALBUM----it's not like this is their Only one (is it?)
