Records were back to 25 cents so I picked up a few Ventures lp dupes, a stereo copy of "Discoteque Dancers Go-Go" on Crown- my fave bargain early 60s instro record, a couple of big stacks of cool 45s and a few other things. My fave was "The Music of M SQUAD"(1959) lp, this cool old Lee Marvin cop show- it's the most bad ass record cover ever, B/W with Lee Marvin crouching between two boss autos blasting away with his pistol, and the flash from his gun takes up about a third of the cover. On the back he's holding a machine gun in front of a drawing of the city, and he wrote the liners. Sounds just like that Mancini spy/cop stuff.

Linda's referring to WRNR and the dj who plays (or played if he's not on the air any more, not sure if there was a sale back 2 years ago...) 90% of the bomp worthy stuff was attributable to my good buddy Dominick who held down weekend slots on rnr for probably 5 years or so in the 90s. Dominick is a former WMUC'er like myself and we used to tag team saturday afternoons toward the end of my post-grad experience on the station (1994-98). He got me an audition on WRNR one Friday afternoon around 1997 and for some reason the dj I was working with asked me to play "frat rock" and needless to say after an hour of frat & soul stompers, I was not going to get a paid gig there. I went to college with the music director at the time, Phil. The coolest "faves" at that station? Apples in Stereo, Mermen, Cynics (no, really, 6 years later), and I think they used to play Stereolab. But otherwise, a return to the "home grown radio" that the Einstein family ran on WHFS back in the 1970s (when it was next door to Bethesda's Psychedelly). I am not sure if the Einsteins have since sold WRNR, though, I think yes. hey, wait a second, all this DC nostalgia... How come Kenne Highland lost custody of the bomp list in his divorce? Don - ------------------------ Date: Sat, 6 Jan 2001 10:14:47 +0000 From: "Linda" Subject: bad radio Here in the Baltimore/Washington area, we have a station that proclaims it's "progressive, free form". No playlists; dj-driven. Sounds promising, huh? Well, it's butt-awful. The house band (as they call it ) is the Grateful Dead. And ALL the DJs absolutely go ga-ga over jam bands... it's a steady diet of Phish, Government Mule, Widespread Panic with some boring blues and Sarah McLachlan-type breathy female singers thrown in... get the picture? You'd think a radio station that is truly progressive and free form would hire a DJ with different musical taste, but nooooo. To be fair, some of the DJs will play Bomp-worthy tunes here and there, but it's not worth the torture to have to listen to all the other crap in the meantime. Ya know, I'd almost rather listen to classic rock -- at least I can tune that out, but that jam-band stuff makes me feel like ripping off my head and throwing it at the radio. - - -Linda ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 29 Jan 2001 00:13:34 EST From: HOODOO3005@aol.com Subject: Re: bomp-digest V2001 #62 In a message dated 1/28/01 7:15:29 AM Central Standard Time, owner-bomp-digest@xnet2.com writes: << "Stop!

Only two, but that's pretty good considering the usually crappy state of Aussie secondhand record offerings: Jimmy Reed - Rockin' with Reed (VeeJay) Blues Magoos - Electric Comic Book (Mercury) Also present were a Buck Owens double LP, 5th Dimension, Nancy Sinatra and the usual dreck. I also bought an LP by Bob Kubeck and the In-Men - haven't listened to it yet but I figure its gonna be pretty awful big band/pop, judging from the liner notes. Does have version of the Batman theme, though, which is why I bought it in the first place.

On January 28, in 1954, the Jones Brothers recorded "Look to Jesus" at Memphis' Sun Studios. Another of Sun's early gospel recordings; 1955, Big Joe Turner recorded "Flip, flop and fly", in New York; 1965, the Remains recorded "Baby I believe in you", "I'm talking 'bout you", "My babe" and "When I want to know" at New York's CBS Studios; 1969, the Beatles recorded "Get back" and "Don't let me down" at London's Apple Studios; 1969, Stevie Wonder recorded "Don't know why I love you" and "My cherie amour" at Detroit's Motown Studios; 1972, the Free re-recorded "Travellin' man" at London's Island Studios. This is the version that appeared on "Free at last"; 1982, Gillan, the band fronted by Ian Gillan, played a great gig in Leiden, Holland, supported by the Tygers of Pan Tang. On January 29, in 1963, the Trashmen recorded "Malaguena", "A million reasons" and "Sweet little sixteen" at Concert Studios in Minneapolis, during a demo session; 1964, the Beatles had their only ever recording session outside London. They were in Paris, France for three weeks. During that time they played 18 days at the Olympia, playing two (sometimes three) shows a day. This day they spent a few hours at Pathe Marconi Studios. Most the time was spent on recording German versions of "She loves you" and "I want to hold your hand" transformed into "Sie liebt dich" and "Komm, gib mir deine Hand". For the latter only German vocals were recorded, but "Sie liebt dich" was re-recorded completely. Apparently the Beatles had picked up a lot of German in their Hamburg days, as they even had time to record a new song, in English: "Can't buy me love", almost finished in four takes. Only George's lead guitar and Paul's vocals were overdubbed at Abbey Road, on February 25. A follow-up session, booked for January 31, was cancelled. The Beatles would never record abroad again, nor would they ever sing in a foreign language again; 1964, Paul Revere & the Raiders recorded "Louie, go home" and "Have love will travel" at Los Angeles' Columbia Studios; 1967, the Trashmen played a gig at the Gables Club in Minneapolis. Two of the songs they played, "Gloria" and "I'm not your stepping stone", are to be found on "Bird call!"; 1973, James Brown recorded "Doing it to death" at Augusta's International Studios; 1973, the Who recorded a BBC session. "Long live rock" and "The relay" are included in the "BBC sessions" cd. That's all.
