Bikini May Shake And Stir Auction
LONDON - The white bikini that left James Bond shaken and stirred in one of
the most memorable scenes from the British spy film series has been put up
for sale. Swiss-born actress Ursula Andress shot to stardom when she
emerged from the sea wearing the white cotton bikini in the 1962 movie Dr.
No, the first 007 film. This bikini made me into a success," Andress, now
64, said. The actress decided to sell the two-piece after she discovered it
in the attic at her home, the Daily Telegraph reported on Friday. The
bikini is expected to fetch up to $75,000 when it is auctioned at a sale of
Bond memorabilia at Christie's in London on Feb. 14, the paper said.<<

Coincidence?

Dr No was on Dutch tv last Saturday and Andress emerging from the sea was
quite amazing.
I'll make a bid, provided the 1962 Andress comes with it.... LOL!!!

Tony Jackson & the Vibrations do a pretty good version as well. And,

as the Vibrations but not bad all the same, especially for the Merseybeats
who I normally associate with Wishing & Hoping type sounds. -- PJ

Folks,

We called this week's show "Let's Twist Again: The Return of Dance
CRAZE!!!" (Like Jean says, if your eyes don't bug out when you say CRAZE
you're not saying it right!) Curiously, and by odd coincidence, I just
noticed that a larger than normal number of album titles we culled from had
exclamation points(!) at the end. What does this mean?!?!?

As always we say "thanks" to the artists and labels responsible for
producing tonight's music, and to the loyal listeners who encourage us to

  Kenne Highland Clan, Classic Ruins and Lyres were all great last Saturday 
at the Kirkland in Somerville. Classic Ruins didn't do "Geraldine" but did 
end the set with a cool version of "How Do You Know". Lyres were their usual 
rockin' selves and I found myself mesmerized by Paul Murphy's amazing 
drumming and total concentration particularly on "Lovin' Cup". The only 
downside was the club's new management constantly making the bands turn down 
- -undoubtedly the reason that more people were not on the dance floor (though 
it was a sizeable and enthusiastic crowd).
  Lyres play the Abbey this Saturday for the first time and it should be 
good - the Abbey has good sound for such a tiny club. The Real Kids sounded 
great there not long ago. Sharing the bill are Downbeat Five (and is there a 
third band - Jen?)

Bob Kuban & the In-Men?

I've heard their Collectables reissue, and I think its' pretty good. Their 
hit was "The Cheater" (1966), and their genre was blue-eyed soul. If you're 
into North Carolina beach-music sounds***, or just soul music in general, 
it's a good deal. I know that the genre has it's share of cheesiness (I never 
liked Jay & the Techniques, outside of their two hits). When Mop-Top Mike 
used to make fun of soul music in his old garage-rock column in Discoveries 
("Jim & the Prep-Tones," remember, Mike??), I think it may have been the 
frat-party horn bands he was shooting at, rather than the more-authentic 
likes of Otis Redding, James Brown, etc. But, hey...the horn bands like 
Kuban, the Magnificent Men, Wayne Cochran & the C.C. Riders, and others, 
stood a better chance of being played on soul radio than the Shadows Of 
Knight or the Small Faces****, and despite their lounge tendencies and square 
attire, some of these horn bands were every bit as tuff as the garage guys. 
Just like John Fred & the Playboy Band---they could do the frat-soul thang 
and the garage-rock number equally.

So keep an open mind, and look at Kuban's band as an outgrowth of soul 
instead of garage---you may like what you hear.

J. Porter
***when I say beach music, I don't mean surf---more like the kind of pop-soul 
popular in the Carolinas, like "Girl Watcher" by the O'Kaysions, or the 
Drifters' stuff. I'd go in depth, but I gotta head off for work!!!
****don't get me wrong---I LOVE the Small Faces and the Shadows Of Knight!!! 
But even if they are influenced by soul and blues, respectively, it still 
comes out of the wash as ROCK & ROLL. Nothing wrong with that!!! But a few 
hard-up garage and punk fans I've met think that Steve Marriott is the 
originator and that James Carr or Gene Chandler are the Vegas phonies...so I 
thought I'd set the rekkid straight. Rock on!

Quite a pic od Del in Carnaby gear. Not surprising re the lp as he did
associate w/ Andrew Oldham and was the first American to record a Beatles
song-From Me to You and in return Peter and Gordon returned the favor.

I met Del in the late 70s. He was a hip guy and was wearing a Bomp tshirt. He
recorded w/ Jeff Lynne in early 70s.

He was a friend of Greg Shaw's. Perhaps Greg has herard the lp or has a tape of
it.

>could someone, preferable MopTop (seeing as he's probably the expert on the

heard the demolition doll rods cover the b-side "Thunderbolt") so i'm not
that worried. what exactly are the matrix numbers or the differences of the
labels? later...ben

Well, the Bomplist is the first place this info is published!

I've spent many years trying to find out just why so many Snap label copies
of "Hanky Panky" keep popping up, as it was supposed to be a limited
pressing of a few thousand.  I've seen the Snap label issue everywhere
throughout my travels - at record shows, warehouse stocks, and even at tag
sales/flea markets, etc.  All across the USA to boot! Not to mention on the
web...

The only original copy that I've seen is in the collection of a friend of
mine.

Here is how to tell the difference between a real Snap "Hanky Panky" and the
ubiquitous 1966 issued bootleg copy:

Original Snap 102:

In the deadwax, the is a Sheldon machine stamp logo.  This was the plant in
Chicago that pressed up the copies.  All of the boots do not have this
inscription in the dead wax.
That's an obvious way to tell the difference.

As to the label, originals credit "Hanky-Panky" (note the hyphen in the
title, which is not there on boot Snap copies) to Tommy Jackson, not Ellie
Greenwich and Jeff Barry.  Now, some of the first runs of the bootleg copies
may have Tommy Jackson or Tommy James as the author, so a further check is
need:

At the top of the label, just above the Snap logo, the note reads Snap
records in all caps and directly ABOVE it is Niles, Michigan.  Every boot
copy I've seen places the Niles, Michigan location UNDERNEATH the Snap logo.
Publishing on the "Hanky Panky" side for originals credit publishing to J.D.
Defenbaugh.
On boot copies, the correct publishing T-M music is listed.

And on many boot presses of Snap 102, to add a little bit of legal
cushioning, the notice "Distributed by Red Fox Records Inc, Pgh, Pa" is
noted at the bottom of the label.

So, the REAL original Snap 102 is very rare.  I've been looking for one for
a long time.
Any copies of the Snap 102 and the numerous variations of the bootleg are
very easy to find, should be a $15-20 record in near mint shape.
Don't believe the Osborne or Goldmine price guides on this one.

    I think we'll have to agree to disagree.  I think of it as a label
showcase. Those happen all the time in other cities. Granted, this lasts a
couple days, rather than the usual one, but I just don't think of it as much
different.  No biggie, just a difference of opinion.

Yeah, that's the title of the LP I think (or "Look out for the Cheater" or
something similar).

Fair enough.  I haven't actually listened to it yet - it was just the band

Subject: cd burning records

 Here I am with another question about my new CD recorder. I finally tried
to make a compilation for a bandmate of early Bellrays stuff, so I dubbed
their first tape (no problem there) and then started in on the singles. I
unplugged the tape deck, and plugged in my turntable. Thing is, I don't get
a loud enough signal to record. It's very quiet, and the manual level
adjustment on the CDR machine, even at its highest setting, it's still too
quiet. So, do I need a preamp then? I figure that the turntable usually goes
into my JVC digital receiver, thus getting sound boosted that way. Going
directly into the CD recorder, it has no single boost. The thing I can't
figure out is that the tape deck goes directly into the recorded, too, so
why doesn't it need a signal boost? If I do need a preamp, does anyone have
any recommendations?

You shouldn't need a separate preamp if you already have 
your turntable plugged into a receiver or amp. Just run cables 
from the "Tape Out" jacks on your amp or receiver (the jacks 
that would normally connect to "Line In" on a tape deck) to the 
"Line In" jacks on your CD recorder and you should be in business.

Subject: I Should Go Now

Anyone know of a song that I think is called 'I Should Go Now' by a group 
called, I think, The Moonlights, or the Moonlighters...I think they were 
Dutch. I heard it once on WNYU. Very much like early Kinks, a real 
hand-clapping number. I seem to remember it had that 'Revenge'/'She Just 
Satisfies'/'Tripmaker' riff. Does anyone know of a CD that contains this 
track? Any info at all would be appreciated. It was a great song, really 
energetic, cool Beat era piece. 

Thanks.

Dunno what all the trepidation over horns is around here...  Some of my fave
material has KILLER horns.  Done right, they can really add to the racket!
And let's not forget the noble saxaphone, which blares away on all my fave
Sonics and Wailers tracks...

Yeah, the Cry Babies will be starting things off.  Steve Aquino does 
double-duty, playing in the Cry Babies and the Lyres, and the Cry Babies also 
features Artie Sniderman, also of Belmondos fame and one of my favorite 
fellas!  I can't wait, it's gonna be a blast to play and watch!  Hope you're 
gonna be there, Laura!

 end the set with a cool version of "How Do You Know". Lyres were their usual 
 rockin' selves and I found myself mesmerized by Paul Murphy's amazing 
 drumming and total concentration particularly on "Lovin' Cup". The only 
 downside was the club's new management constantly making the bands turn down 
 -undoubtedly the reason that more people were not on the dance floor (though 
 it was a sizeable and enthusiastic crowd).
   Lyres play the Abbey this Saturday for the first time and it should be 
 good - the Abbey has good sound for such a tiny club. The Real Kids sounded 
 great there not long ago. Sharing the bill are Downbeat Five (and is there a 
 third band - Jen?) >>

Couldn't agree more - its just that I've heard an equal number of otherwise
cool tracks that have been trashed because someone figured they'd be better
with some funky horn charts laid over the top!

ive got this song in my head and i cant work out what it is- its some kind
of american folk-psych thing that goes 
"the night has fallen again, and the reason flows from my fountain pen, i
began at the very end, one more step forward and ill desend". 
Can anyone enlighten me as to what it is? its probably something really
obvious but i just cant think of what the hell it is.
