Hey all... I've got a couple of tunes, with the titles of the tracks listed, but no artists. Don't have the name of the collection they're from, either, but it's, as I understand it, a collection of French psychedelic party tunes... I dunno, psych/lounge or something? Do these song titles ring a bell with anyone? Know the artists and the name of the comp? The tunes are "LSD Party" and "Super Erotica." (These are a few of my fav-o-rite things)... Oh yeah... could someone post the tracklist to the Sons of Yma comp? (or... are there more than one? The one I'm looking for has covers of ?'s "I Need Somebody" (however that translates) and Zep's "Moby Dick"(!)).

It's not very typical New Orleans R&B at all (oops, I said it again) as a far as the tune goes. It sounds almost it was made so that the beat groups can get a great number in their repertoire. This doesn't make any sense I know. You're no Good is another one.

The same tracks were included on the 1991 CD "The Liberty Years" (EMI) and the 1995 two-fer "Live In England/And The Music Plays On" (BGO).

We have lost Vince Montgomery, bass guitarist and singer, of The Gants. He died in his sleep of natural causes at home, the night before last. We are all totally devastated. There will be a burial service in Vince's hometown this Saturday and a memorial service in Greenwood, MS sometime this week. He had been in poor health recently.

All of The Gants are such wonderful people- we and their whole crew of happy "groupies" shared a hotel in NYC, and I have so many great memories of their antics and dry, droll, southern rolling commentaries there and backstage at CAVESTOMP!2000. I know Neil the SF shutterbug was clicking away all fest, and I have some semi-decent digital cam pics of some of the show as well, so I hope those can get *out* there quickly. What genuine, nice, GOOD folk, as wordy as I am, I'm truly at a loss. Jon Weiss (who woke me up w/a call earlier this morning) may or may not know this as of yet, so I'm gonna call him back asap as he has the guys' numbers and addresses (Gants). Thanks for bringing the news, Jeff, but wow, it's really, really saddening, since I just met him so very recently and really, with all sincerity, have raved about The Gants not just musically but personally; they were truly some my favorite new musical friends. ~ALYSSA ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2001 10:39:02 -0800 (PST) From: David Coyle Subject: Re: C'mon Home Baby Thanks for the corrections re the Escorts "C'mon Home Baby." I wasn't sure that it was an original Escorts composition, but I knew it wasn't a more familiar cover, like "Dizzy Miss Lizzy" or "Mad Mad World," both of which the Escorts also covered. Don't forget that the Addrisi brothers also wrote "That's When Happiness Began," a hit for the Montanas in the UK, and a garage-pop classic by the Grains Of Sand. For British beat that sounds like American garage, you can't beat the Escorts version of "Dizzy Miss Lizzy" which was a number one hit in Texas because the drummer's cousin was a deejay there. AND for those who don't know, "Head To Toe" featured Paul McCartney on tambourine. Dave __________________________________________________ Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!

The Buckinghams, especially. And then the Outsiders from Ohio. There was a "live" Outsiders LP where they simply took the masters of several of their album tracks, mixed out the horns, and had the band record some covers sans horns, which was all overdubbed with audience sounds. The results were mixed, and on the familiar Outsiders songs, the sound was decidedly not as full as it was with the horns. As far as Bob Kuban and The In-Men go, I love "The Cheater," which is one of those incredible oldies that aren't played on "oldies radio" nearly enough. I have a reissue 45 of that song, backed by the similar-themed "The Teaser." The murder of "Sir" Walter Scott is one of those great rock tragedies that still has an air of mystery to it. Does anyone know if they still show that episode of "Mysteries And Scandals" on E!? Dave __________________________________________________ Get personalized email addresses from Yahoo!

I have an excellent comp of Del Shannon on the UK Music Club label, which I think is called "Presenting Del Shannon," and contains 32 cuts from 1962-66. Unfortunately it leaves off the later stuff such as the haunting "Sister Isabelle." The difference between that stuff and "Runaway," etc. is amazing. Sort of like Brian Hyland going from "Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini" to "Gypsy Woman" in the same space of years. In both cases, the in-between years are well worth checking out (Hyland's 1965 hit "The Joker Went Wild" is a fave of mine). BUT, attention US readers, there is a nearly identical version of the Music Club CD available in the US. Same cover, same notes, but it only includes 16 cuts. The UK version is a much better value.

I probably will not have been the first to announce this on the group, but just found out on the Garage66 list that Vince Montgomery of the Gants died in his sleep a couple days ago, at the age of 54. Just a number of weeks after the big Gants reunion at Cavestomp. The death was of natural causes, Montgomery's health was pretty bad for a while. I don't think it would be disrespectful at all to crank up "Road Runner" in his memory, and let Montgomery's awesome bassline speak his eulogy...

We have lost Vince Montgomery, bass guitartist and singer, of The Gants. He died of natural causes, in his sleep at home, the night before last. I have few details at the moment. Don Wood told us that there would be a burial service in Vince's hometown on Saturday and that there would be a memorial service in Greenwood, MS sometime this week. When he sends me the details, I will pass it along. We are all totally devastated. Vince had not been in good health recently but we were not prepared for his death. He was 54. Please keep all of us in your thoughts and prayers. Stay in touch. My best to you, Beth Ellis aka "GranHooch" for The Gants - ---------------------------------------------------- My two cents: Vince, like all four Gants, was a sweetheart. A real gentleman.

Thought I >was the only one who rememered them, then Greg and I talked about them Remember them?! I've still got their White Hot LP upstairs! I really liked that when it first came out... in fact, theirs was the first version of "Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart Anymore" that I ever heard. In addition to the aforementioned Punky Meadows the band also included Greg Giuffria, who had a decent solo career in the '80s. One of the articles on this page identifies bass player Felix Robinson -- a later addition to the band -- as the former member of Bob Kuban and the In-Men. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2001 20:36:40 -0500 (EST) From: Mekios Subject: Re: Route 66 On 30 Jan 2001, Blair wrote: > > My friend Bill is thinking of doing a paper on "Rt. 66".

Three versions come to mind immediately (it's funny that they are probably not the most obvious ones...): The Dentals -- from Germany; just listened to their live version of root this morning; it's on the new volume (12) of Prae Kraut Pandaemonium. The Chancellors (?) -- The same band that did "On Tour" on Back from the Grave 8 (or was it 7?). Messerschmitt -- band from the late 80's early 90's from ex-Yugoslavia; their killer version of Route 66 is on their first LP "Foxxin'".

BTW, that wasn't Kuban who was murdered, it was his lead singer, Walter Scott. That's Walter's voice you hear on "The Cheater." Kuban (the drummer) is still alive and playing the oldies circuit around St. Louis, MO.
