YES, they look great... but I imagne that people stopped buying them because they are hard to just pick up and play. They aren't cut so you can just sit them on your leg and strum along with classic hits like "The Night Chicago Died." The teardrops and phantoms tend to slide around on your leg unless you hold 'em like a sitar! If you just plan to play one only while standing up, cool. Vox guitars are also legendary for intonation problems, like the Dan Electros. My point? Vox buyers, new and reissue, might consider going with a guitar that is easier to hold and has better intonation as a first ax. >> Uhhhh, picked up a Vox mark 4 bass out of the Recycler in '87, used it on a few tracks on the Yard Trauma "Face to Face" and "Lose Your Head" albums, great tone, intonation is fine, pickups sound fine. I've only used it live twice though cause I CAN'T FIND A CASE LARGE ENOUGH FOR IT! Actually, my first bass was one of those Vox things that had what looked like a Fender body with a Vox headstock. The neck was pencil thin, perfect for a beginner bass player. Had it for a couple of years till I got the Fender Jazz (at the age of 17, in '75 or so) which I still use till this day! Again, I'd use the Vox if I could find a nice solid case!

Side one included three or four tracks from '66 (inc "Pushin Too Hard" and "Please, Please Please") and the reunion material from the early seventies was on side two. The sixties tracks blow but suffer from long pauses between songs and thus destroys any set pacing. The seventies stuff is loud, angry and fierce. Heck, I wish rock had developed more along these lines at the time. I did have the album but lent it to a pal - big Groovies fan - and it came back totally wrecked. Refer to my previous post about collectors etc. I tell ya, these people who go on and on about the magic of r'n'r and then treat their discs like ashtrays is beyond belief. It's like if you were to lend me your car for the weekend and I returned it to you on Monday with the gear box ripped-out!

I was doing a quick look of the records at a local thrift store, and as is usual all the rock "greats" were in the bins (tower of power, Elton john, ACDC) When pow, 60's surf punk mexicanos "Freneticos Del Ritmo" to the rescue! this record is pretty amazing, they do some boss reverbed up covers of the "the Crusher", "Tought Little Buggy" (with the miss spelling ), two songs I swear i've heard before but which say were written by the band "your mad said you cried"(yep also miss spelled) and "I love you No More" (a nutty song with a great organ/guitar break) plus some beatles and dave clark 5 hits. I got lucky with this one, cause one of the band members named "Sergio" scribbled something on the back of the Lp. He wrote it to some boss chick named Nancy and frankly my spanish isn't the greatest, so i'll write it to the group and if anyone can translate it many thanks (I always thought it might say "Nancy thanks for the makeout party with the guys last night" but that's just a guess). he writes: Para Nancy con carino de sos amigos, Los Freneticos Sergio Gonzalez This one is out on the Eco label, it seems that Eco 7"ers are pretty common place around here so i was buying them up for a while there. off course it turns out that Eco was more know for its kuksville mexican polka then it gear rock'n'rollers, so now I have this box of happy time accordion 7"ers that i'd like to smash until they are dead. I did find one more mexican record (at a flea market this time) which is laughable at most, its by a band called Los Dinners, there is a track on the record that really sticks out in my mind, its titled "Nasty Sex."(!!!) Not only does this have one of the best song names in the history of music, but it also has a slight Booker T and the MGs sound. (the accordion player must have been sick for the recording session that day) overall I think thrift stores can still be fine places to find nutty records, almost half of my collection was found there, so all hope isn't lost. .

I didn't risk it on my record collection, and instead sold the whole thing to a collector. Lovely woodgrain though. #2 minidisc someone said: "I love minidisc .. I love their size, I love their price, I love the fact I can tuck the recorder into my pants pocket. I love the fact they have better sound than CD .. I love it .." yep. i love minidisc too and use the format a great deal. (but i also love my revox b77). however at the risk of appearing a tad pedantic with the "better sound than cd" quote above - from a purely technical angle this is of course not possible, since minidisc uses a lossy compression system (albeit barely noticeable) and cannot be better than cd. having said that though it is pretty hard to tell them apart on a good system. groovily phil dilemma ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 28 Jan 2000 13:44:17 +0000 From: boldface@easynet.co.uk Subject: Bomp: Radiograms >PJ: >>And why is it that >>the radio on this can pick up stations from half way across Europe when my >>stereo has difficulty in getting a decent reception for BBC Radio 4? >> >** Cuz you only paid £60 for a cheapo Midi system.

Lucille from the 72 reunion is there & is KILLER. This song is marred by soundboard level adjustments which is why it was left off subsequent reissues. Side A is a so-so tape from the Salem OR Armory from 1966 probably from the May or June 66 NW tour which is when I saw them at age 16 at the Portland State U. Ballroom in the park blocks in downtown Portland. Songs are Please Please Please (introduced as a Mitch Ryder song) Pushin' Too Hard (!) & I'm A Man. The Sonics were fairly underpowered for large ballrooms and probably came across much better in smaller venues. From what I understand the main obstacle to a reunion is a reluctant Jerry Rosalie. He's pretty much dropped off the radar screen around these parts and is said to feel the band doesn't deserve it's legendary status.

Jerry is the most reluctant. Though he still attends social functions from time to time where other various NW luminaries are in attendance, and has been known to "jam a little" if the spirit moves him. So, you never know. In a previous conversation with Larry Parypa, he confirms what you say, they were grossly underpowered and had an impossible time hearing themselves. Apparently in having the loudest drummer in all of r-n-r at that time, he was all they could hear. No doubt you've fielded this question before, but what was seeing them like? How was the show? What kind of audience did they attract? Was there a sense at the time that there was something different them or that these guys were special? I've often wondered what a r-n-r fan's sensibilities from back then would make of songs like Psycho or Strychnine? And lastly, as I keep my records in no particular order, so digging one in particular out would take all day, what is the complete list of tracks on that disc? Or was that it?

Some folks here know I did college radio at WNYU back in '79 - '82 using the name Evan "Funk" Davies, and I turn 40 later this year so I'm calling it "E. Funk's Midlife Crisis." I'll be playing mostly the punk and power pop that turned my musical life around in high school and college (Stranglers, Buzzcocks, Ramones, Ultravox, etc.), with about 15 minutes set aside at the end for some of my current faves like the Upper Crust, Insomniacs, Woggles, Swingin' Neckbreakers, Neanderthals etc. In fact, I'll be featuring the World Premiere (I think) of a new Insomniacs song! WFMU is at 91.1 in the NJ/NYC area and 90.1 in the Hudson Valley. To listen on the net, go to . By the way, right after the listener hour at 10am all you Bompers with kids (and even those without) should check out "Greasy Kid Stuff," a great R&R kids show that's for kids in sort of the same way Bullwinkle was for kids.

(Volumes 12-15.) And they are just as great as all the other volumes! Also look out for a cool new soul comp, a new Las Vegas Grind and a R&B set. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 28 Jan 2000 20:32:51 From: Rocky Serkowney Subject: Re: RE: cavestomp suggestions Jon, The Cavemannish Boys have a new CD on Blood Red and are reputed to sound sorta like and include at least one original member of the Miracle Workers. So, I assume that label might be able to put you in touch with that MW refugee to at least start the reunion investigation. Rocky. P.S How's about the original Gruesomes from Montreal who are rumoured to be playing together again. At 10:20 AM 1/28/00 EST, you wrote: > >Excellent!

As for 80s bands who I haven't heard got back together, I'd love to see The Hysteric Narcotics again. 60's bands that currently exist in some form: John's Children, The Shangri-Las. And count me in among the people who want to see The Electric Prunes. ------------------------------ Date: 28 Jan 2000 21:52:52 -0500 From: "Blair" Subject: Re: RE: cavestomp suggestions >How about The Voodoo Dolls, I hear they've gotten back together? I was under the impression that the show they did last winter was a one-off. But as a *huge* fan of the band, I'd love to see them be invited to play just about any kind of fest. >As for 80s bands who I haven't heard got back together, I'd love to see >The >Hysteric Narcotics again. Yeah, they were lotsa fun. Songs like "Monkey Bars" and "Electric Children" were big hits with me at the time. I'd like to see bands like The Projectiles (Rochester 80s garage act) or, for that matter, ex-Projectiles' front-guy Dan Frank's latter-day project, The Riviera Playboys. Heck, as long as we're in that area, how 'bout the group ex-C. Kings' guitarist Rick Cona's playing with? I missed 'em when they played NYC, but I hear they were pretty good. Or maybe another Rochester-area group, The Squires of The Subterrain. True, that bunch is more psychedelic-pop, but I'd love to see them play. And, yeah, I'd be into seeing The Gruesomes, too. Or, from Massachusetts, the absolutely awesome Bel Mondos. (I'm pretty sure you could convince them to get back together for it.) Or how about The Odds... Or The Time Beings. For that matter, while I know they seem to only do once-yearly holiday reunions around their hometown, is there any chance The Slickee Boys could play? How about getting The Ravens together for a show?
