Comps of other bands doing Stones songs. There are two of them--you have to buy two copies of the same mag to get both. So, does anyone have a list of what songs/bands are on each one? Would help me know if I need to spring for both. The mag covers just same some but not all of the bands on each CD and don't list the individual songs. And I take it these are all previously release stuff? Here's the tracklist for the two Uncut Rolling Stones Covers CD's. As with most of the UNCUT themed CD's they both play very nicely. A few tracks are exclusive to these compilations. UNCUT - Gimme Shelter - Vol. 1 LAIBACH - Sympathy for the Devil CHELSEA - Street Fighting Man ALEJANDRO ESCOVEDO - Sway THE BLIND BOYS OF ALABAMA - I just want to see his face * THE HANDSOME FAMILY - Faraway Eyes JOHNNY WINTER - Jumpin' Jack Flash CAT POWER - Satisfaction DIESEL PARK WEST - Tumbling Dice JOHNNY DOWD - Mother's Little Hlpper (remix) TOM JONES - Honky Tonk Woman SILVER JEWS - Cocksucker Blues CHRIS FARLOWE - Ride on Baby JOHNNY THUNDERS - Play with Fire LUTHER ALLISON - You Can't Always Get What You Want HAWKWIND - Gimme Shelter * RYAN ADAMS/BETH ORTON - Brown Sugar UNCUT - Gimme Shelter - Vol. 2 * LAMBCHOP - Backstreet Girl MC 5 - Empty Heart COWBOY JUNKIES - Dead Flowers BUFFALO TOM - The Spider and the Fly JOHNNY THUNDERS - As Tears Go By RAMONES - Out of Time MEAT PUPPETS - What To Do FLAMIN' GROOVIES - Paint It Black MARIANNE FAITHFULL - Sister Morphine GENO WASHINGTON & RAM JAM BAND - Jumpin' Jack Flash THE FLYING PICKETS - Get Off Of My Cloud RADON DAUGHTERS - Child of the Moon JOE SIMON - Let's Spend The Night Together IAN McNABB with MIKE SCOTT and ARTO THISTLEWAITE - Salt of the Earth * KELLY JONES (STEREOPHONICS) - Angie RUTH COPELAND - Gimme Shelter *) Exclusively recorded tracks for these CD's - -- __________________________________________________________________ Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.

(snippety snip) Anybody have this? It includes a couple of tracks by bands such as the Ground Floor People - and I've never even heard of them (if you can fill me in on this band - please do)?! What's the scoop/consensus? Worth picking up?? Greetings Mike, I can't comment on the CD set but as for the Ground Floor People... they hailed from The Bronx, NY and put out 2 45s: It's All Right Now / Walkin' On Eggs (Parfait 91666)Sep 1966 Workaday World / Treat Me Better (Mercury 72719)Jul 1967 I don't recall their debut,... probably on a tape somewhere. The Mercury 45 couples Workaday World (awful dreary pop with piano and Four Seasons vocals) and the excellent Treat Me Better (driving raucous garage-pop). Max p.s. I hope that all Bompers had an enjoyable festive season whatever your beliefs. Wishing you all a more harmonious 2002. Btw - keep yer eyes and ears peeled for more great Psychedelic States volumes on Gear Fab.

Amazing band. Spent quite a few drunken nights in various dives around Sydney during the mid to late 80s watching these guys put on some amazing shows.

Personally I always think of Ja music as "producers music", ie: the name of the producer is often a better indication of a discs merits then the actual performer. Lee Perry is an obvious example (esp in the 70s), but I also really dig Joe Gibbs' late 70s works (first Culture LP, the 'African Dub' series and Prince Far I's 'Under Heavy Manners' LP), and there are dozens of other examples. I've said this before, but if you think you can't stand Jamaican music; consider this; New Orleans R&B=Ska, Cool 60s soul (think Temptations or Impressions)=Rocksteady, Dub=Psychedelic freak out etc....

On the first three at least, the original versions were much, MUCH better. (Actually it seems like quite a few bands do "modern" versions of old tunes - "Song Name Year Name" - to try to get back on the charts, not always that successfully).

Anyway, here's a nugget from the Woggles mailing list that I thought would interest all of you. Apologies in advance if this was already posted here: First, contrary to the rumors, the Woggles will not be on an upcoming episode of the HBO television show the SOPRANOS. Rumors on chat lists like the Bomp List are unfortunately incorrect. Yes, the Woggles did play a summer installment of Cavestomp, the garage rock series promoted by Steven Van Zandt, and had a real blast doing so. However, the band chosen for the SOPRANOS episode are  New Jersey's home town boys and Telstar Records label mates, The Swingin' Neckbreakers. As of right now we have no idea when the episode will air, but it's our understanding that the Neckbreakers will be featured in the background of some scene playing in a bar. _________________________________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 02 Jan 2002 08:57:00 +0100 From: Bård Hodneland Subject: Re: Anyone ever heard of the Poppets?
