"Run Rabbit Run" is a good rocker from '66; followed by the 2-sider "Rebel Woman" / Jailhouse Rock" in '67. Both are on the Milky Way label. "Mary Sue" is another rocker which came out on Tell International. Dean may have made a couple more singles prior to these, I don't have any details. As for the Lemon Pipers, "Quiet Please" was their first 45, but the Carol label 45 wasn't released until after "Green Tamborine was moving way up the Billboard charts in January 1968. "Quiet Please" first appeared on the Dana Lyn label based in Cincy, OH in the summer of 1967. It is the same version as the Carol release. Mop Top Mike ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2000 06:04:37 -0800 (PST) From: BobDuncan@webtv.net Subject: NW 60s: `66 Showdown! The Redcoats VS The Gamblers In the early part of 1966, having just turned 16 I started hitting the teen clubs on a regular basis. This got turned up a couple notches when I hooked up with a fashion conscious freshman named Cathy from Cleveland High at The Headless Horseman. In June we went to The Teen Fair in the underground bunker-like convention hall at the Portland OR Memorial Coliseum. 3 stages, films like 'Endless Summer', dance contests (which we placed 3rd in & won boots from Mier & Frank, Go-Go for her, Beatle Boots for me) and a ton of bands, most of 'em playing for the exposure. Jim Valley had left Don & The Goodtimes for the Raiders after recording Blue Turns To Grey in January so the town was wide open. Into this void stepped The Redcoats, an all-star (mostly) garage band made up of (Gentleman) Jim Dunlap vocals & Larry Roberts bass of Gentleman Jim & The Horsemen (one of the house bands at the Horseman), Dave Maitland a Drake Levin-like lead guitarist from Mr. Lucky & The Gamblers, Doug Morrison on Hammond organ, and surprise surprise my Wilson High classmate Pat Primiano on drums! Now nobody had any idea Pat played but he turned out to be a wonderful, showy, noisy, rim-shot happy drummer who, if memory serves, reminded me something of Bob Bennett or maybe Dave Clark. They debuted as co-headliners (along with The Midnight Sons who had just released 'Draft Time Blues') of the fair and were loud, gritty & showy doing a NW spin on the (then) new Brit-Invasion style. A Raiders stage act meets The Zombies, Spencer Davis & The Animals, hence the Redcoat gimmick. The kids loved 'em. They never had to work their way up the local ladder... they started at the top headlining the large halls & regularly selling out the Horseman. Along with Mr. Lucky & The Gamblers, they owned the town. We believed in them. So how good were they? Real fucking good. Until some 45s turn up the closest point of comparison would be the Mr Lucky & The Gamblers 45 Take A Look At Me/I Told You Once Before. The latter features (I'm pretty sure) Dave Maitland's wonderful Colin Blunstone-like voice. Having him in The Redcoats gave the band a devastating one-two vocal punch, something no other area band had at the time. Just when you were getting into Dunlap's Eric Burden-isms on Gimme Some Lovin', Gin House Blues or some other chestnut of the day, up would step Maitland with I Must Move or Tell Her No. They could harmonize, and they had originals, although time has blurred my memory on this. Sometime later in the year drummer Pat P. came up to me in school and proudly told me that they had a recording contract. This is borne out by Don Rogers in 'Dance Halls Armories & Teen Fairs': "The winter of 1966 saw the group signing with Dunhill Records. The label released several singles by the group, but all failed to make the charts". The 1st single was called 'Where Do We Go From Here' (an original?) w/the lyrics "Well, you've got to move to the left & right, You gotta hitch-hike baby hitch-hike" Timeless teen bullshit... promoted endlessly by them from the stage. No local Jerden release. Impossible to find in Portland. Hell, impossible to find, period, which makes little sense since the road to Dunhill (ala The Goodtimes & The Gamblers) went through Jerden, who leased to them. The only thing that I can think of is that Maitland or whoever was running the show knew someone at Dunhill from The Gamblers association with them & decided to bypass Jerden, counting on Dunhill to push the record, which thy never did. Big mistake. Jerden would have put the record on every station & in every store in the area, thus giving it a chance to break out. Which is why nobody but a few NW garage-niks remember them, and we are all the poorer.

Dwarves Offer Help to George W. Bush on the Road to the White House LOS ANGELES, Feb. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- In the wake of Hillary Rodham Clinton's decision to use Billy Joel's ''Captain Jack'' as her campaign theme song, the well-loved punk band The Dwarves submitted their song, ''River City Rapist,'' to George W. Bush's bid for the Presidency. Blag Dahlia of the Dwarves stated, ''The first lady's decision to adopt a song depicting drug use and masturbation is an exciting step in the direction of honest politics. We feel as musicians and poets that 'River City Rapist' is a perfect fit for the Bush campaign.'' While the Dwarves did not write the piece with Bush in mind, they do feel that the line: ''I'm the River City Rapist! I'm gonna rape the USA!'' fits the tone of the Bush campaign perfectly. The Dwarves, whose album ''The Dwarves Come Clean'' will be released by Epitaph on March 7, will donate use of the song for the duration of Bush's march to the Presidency. lee sound views - --- http://members.aol.com/Shake6677/DeadFlowers.html (garage, punk, psych, soul, r&b, beat, blues, r&r, etc.) ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2000 10:10:40 EST From: SoundViews@aol.com Subject: Re: Re: The Wayback Machine playlist (2/13/00) get hip carries it... lee sound views - --- http://members.aol.com/Shake6677/DeadFlowers.html (garage, punk, psych, soul, r&b, beat, blues, r&r, etc.) ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2000 12:42:51 EST From: ARei425705@aol.com Subject: Re: Favourite Gigs Fortunately, I've seen so many great shows that I find it really hard to just name a few... Here are some of my fave highlites: 1. CRAMPS at PRIVATES in NYC (right around when Psychedelic Jungle came out): Me and a girlfriend were tripping, and the Cramps were slower than usual (as the / Jungle stuff is) and the light show was great (or APPEARED to be!)...Never heard 'em sound so great! 2. DEAD BOYS at CBGB (around '77 I believe)...I'd never heard of 'em! I went to see the Dictators, and the Boys opened. They actually SCARED me! Most "in your face" Rock & Roll I ever saw! Stiv fell into my lap! 3. FUZZTONES at NEUROCK FESTIVAL, BELGIUM (Summer 1987): A giant festival featuring lotsa big names like the Mission I believe. The Meteors were late and The Fuzztones had to go on in their place....even though about 10,000 people were glad they did, about 7 really nasty skins up front harrased the band throughout the set: throwing beer bottles, lit cigarretes, etc. Finally Rudi Protrudi took a flying leap off the stage, feet first, into the biggest skinheads' face!!!! I've been a Fuzztones fan ever since! 4. IGGY POP at PEPPERMINT LOUNGE (NYC, maybe 1980?): During his set, Ig made the club owner pay him cash on stage! Then he threw it at the audience (he had thrown a mic stand a little earlier...I was sure he was gonna kill someone!) At the end of the show, the band left the stage and only Ig remained. He stripped completely nude, and strutted that giant weapon (no, not the mic stand!) around for about 5 minutes, sneering at the audience the whole time!

Even some of the new bands can be a challenge. I also really appreciate everyones suggestions and interest in who's gonna' play, and hope you will all keep those ideas coming. If it wasn't for some of the outside suggestions I've gotten in the past, like those that come from Blair Buscareno, some of the bills might've been less than interesting.
