Go figure). If you look in the usual places, you can get good high-quality boots of those records on CD. I have -On the Beach- alone, a -Time/Beach- twofer (with some nice outtakes as bonus tracks), a -Stars/Reactor- twofer, and -Hawks- alone. All were mastered from vinyl, but the sound is pristeen with only the faintest needle hiss (and I have to really concentrate to hear it). And the album artwork for each is reproduced in the booklet fairly well. I passed on a -Journey- CD boot, only because pretty much everything I've heard about the record is pretty negative. And, to defend side two of -Hawks-, it starts off with one of my favorite "rare" Neil tracks. "Staying Power" is a really cool piano doo-wop number. Just about the last style of music you'd expect Neil to tackle, but he does it really well (and keeps it short before it starts dragging). It's a great pop song for a sing-a-long too: "We've....got... staying power!" :) Play it for someone who only knows Neil for his long guitar-heavy freak-outs and see what kind of reaction you get!

Not exactly new but new to us anyway was Buddy and Julie Miller's terrific "Keep Your Distance" (Hightone), the rockabilly of the Black Knights, ("20 Years of Highlights and Blackouts" on Enviken) and the Buffalo Springfield box, which we are finding a mixed bag needing more time to digest. Lastly, we only now found the copy of last year's Andre Williams disc "Bait & Switch" (Norton) in the station library - -- the "system" initiated last summer numbers and arranges incoming releases in the order they were received, not alphabetically(!!!) so nothing can ever be found -- but that disc is great! 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 air it every week! (For seven years now, Radio Rumpus Room has been broadcast Fridays at 9-10:30 p.m. on KFAI Fresh Air Radio, FM 90.3 Minneapolis and 106.7 St. Paul. The show also streams live on the Internet, and as always, our most recent show is archived in its entirety in RealAudio. YOU CAN LISTEN TO THIS ENTIRE 90 MINUTES OF MISGUIDED GENIUS RIGHT NOW! Just link up through the RRR web page ANY old time to listen to this noise and catch Jean and Ron spouting the usual fabrications and preposterous "statements of fact!")

Echomen -- Long Green (Hipsville, Vol. 3: The Return of the Frozen Few; Kramden) The Echomen were from Hastings, Minnesota. This was the A-side of their sole single, released on the Fox label in 1966. Members of this band went on to form the Bedlam Four of "Hydrogen Atom" fame. Slow Slushy Boys -- Baby Lou (Make Mine Slushy; Wildebeest) A-Bones -- That Jim (The Life of Riley; Norton) Diane Renay -- Watch Out, Sally! (Growin' Up Too Fast; Mercury) Del Shannon -- Move It On Over (Jump, Jive & Harmonize; Teenage Shutdown) Jefferson Airplane -- It's No Secret (...Takes Off; RCA) Buffalo Springfield -- Down Down Down (Buffalo Springfield box; Elektra) Mamas & the Papas -- Straight Shooter (All the Leaves Are Brown; MCA) Continental Co-ets -- Let's Live for the Present (IGL Dance Jamboree '66; Arf! Arf!) Curtiss A -- Pearls of Wisdom (Just Because We're Not Together Doesn't Mean I Don't Love You) (A Scarlet Letter; Twin/Tone) Morells -- I'm a Hog for You Baby (self-titled; Slewfoot) Ronnie Self -- You're So Right for Me (Ain't I'm a Dog; Columbia/Epic/Legacy) Andre Williams and Ronnie Spector -- It's Gonna Work Out Fine (Bait & Switch; Norton) Blue Mountain -- Mountain Girl (Dog Days; Roadrunner) Byrds -- She Has a Way (The Preflyte Sessions; Sundazed) Buddy & Julie Miller -- Keep Your Distance (self-titled; HighTone) Aqua Velvets -- Bravado (Radio Waves; Milan) Sir Finks -- Steel Pier (Guitars Don't Argue 7" EP; Wildebeest) Die Sputniks -- Sputniks Thema (Surfbeat Behind the Iron Curtain; AIP) Pharos -- Pintor (Pulp Surfin'; Del-Fi) Black Knights -- Rock & Roll Party Man (20 Years of Highlights and Blackouts; Enviken) "Groovey" Joe Poovey -- Move Around (The Big "D" Jamboree Live, Vols. 1 & 2; Dragon Street) String Kings -- Bloodshot (Bloodshot!: The Gaity Records Story, Vol. 1; Norton) Johnny Cash and the Tennessee Two -- Leave That Junk Alone (Roads Less Travelled; Varese Sarabande) And that was that. Stay tune in two weeks for the "Big Beat Badger Blowout" -- a show's worth of prime Sixties rock'n'roll and rockabilly -- all from Wisconsin. ________________ RADIO RUMPUS ROOM: An unholy mix of surf, hot rod, rockabilly, '60s garage, psychedelia, primal pop and traditional and alt.country KFAI 90.3 FM (Minneapolis) and 106.7 FM (St. Paul) Noisily streaming live in RealAudio every Friday 9-10:30 p.m. CDT Recent archived shows in RealAudio, playlists and much more at: http://www2.bitstream.net/~rumpus2/ ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 7 Jan 2002 09:19:37 EST From: Moparlary@aol.com Subject: Re: bass & guitar when it comes to amazing bass all I can say are two words.... Headless Horseman!!! Peter Stuart plays the greatest bass - like a good drum fill. It fits in the parameters of the song. It creeps up on you, doesn't overwhem you or the rest of the band. But when you notice it, you are knocked on you ass!!!! I'd nominate the Buzzcocks for some great bass work as well and locally, Ken Fox of the Fleshtones and Tom Jorgeson of the Swingin' Neckbreakers. And in a larger note, (Sir) Paul McCartney doesn't get half the props he deserves for the seemingly simple bass lines he plays.

Tim ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 7 Jan 2002 10:20:39 EST From: Sknoof@aol.com Subject: Re: 7-inchers Ugh. Bad memories! (Sort of.....) I recorded some stuff on 4-track in 1979.....finally scraped together enough $ (it was $500, I think) to get some singles pressed--a full year later, in July 1980. With no idea, of course, what I was gonna do with 'em. There was an ad in the back of the Village Voice for this "studio" which happened to be in the Beacon Hotel, next door to the Beacon Theatre in NYC. Went up there, with a CrO2 cassette with two songs on it (that's right...this was BEFORE metal tape....!) gave it to the guy......scratched out a label "design" with a black Sharpie...... Got a call from him the next day......he told me there was a problem. With both songs being in the six-minute range (yeah, yeah, I know....I hadn't learned any self-control yet!) he couldn't fit them on a 45 RPM. So I, of course, dazzled him with my knowledge of exactly how many 6,7,8, and almost 9-minute songs I had at home on singles......to no avail. He said the pressing plant that he uses couldn't do it. But they COULD do it at 33 1/3 RPM......... Well, okay, I sighed. Stupidly. I shoulda looked around more. But I went up there and amended my label-design to include the correct speed in VERY LARGE numbers. Picked 'em up a week later, on a 98-degree weekday evening, with my girlfriend in tow.......NYC folks, I'm sure you know just exactly how far you have to park from the Beacon Theatre!......finally got all ten boxes (500 pieces total) in the trunk and, drenched with sweat, headed straight down to Bleecker Bob's to "celebrate." And that, really, is all you need to know about ME.... :) .....we didn't go to a bar, we went THERE! (The "old" location, on McDougal, just off 8th street.) I mention this last part only because I, of course, gave the guy behind the counter a copy so we could HEAR it.......he really liked the B-side, as I recall......and also because I, of course, picked up a whole lot more stuff than I had $$ to pay for. The punch line is: Bleecker Bob was so thoroughly smitten with my girlfriend that he accepted her personal check. It must have been snowing in hell that night....... (Sidebar: does anybody remember the name of the counter-guy I'm talking about? This was like, 1980 thru 81.....he was ALWAYS there. Any time you went in, seemingly, but definitely every afternoon. Looked a little bit like Peter Tork, had a similar speaking voice also. No, it WASN'T Peter....!) Anyway--I didn't realize till I got home that, in pressing those at 33 instead of 45, I had effectively and thoroughly aced myself completely out of any jukebox play. What an idiot. And also, a lot of people who got the record (after Cub Koda's glowing review, which I sure wish I could find now) played it at the wrong speed, despite what it said on the label. Oh well!

I honestly don't remember if any Ramones tunes were used in it--at any rate, none are listed on the soundtrack. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 7 Jan 2002 11:54:58 -0700 (MST) From: Zac Subject: Re: 7" vinyl: yes or no? I generally buy fell lengths if i'm impressed with a band quite a bit. HOwever if the band seem like good folks and mildly entertain me I'll certainly buy a 7". So I think in that sense they definitely are worth putting out. - -Zac On Sun, 6 Jan 2002 Moparlary@aol.com wrote: > > the pros and cons: > when my old band put out out first 45's it was the affordable way to go > (especially since I was bankrolling it) 5 bills bumper to taillight.

I just looked at one of those Sonys yesterday. Yep, $99 at Best Buy. I've got a Technics belt-driven turntable in the shop right now. Had it for about seven years and the motor finally burned out on me. So it's costing me $151 to get fixed ($38 of that I've already paid), so the remainder of what I owe will be around $113. Not bad, considering Best Buy also had the very same model for $150. So it was a toss-up, but I decided since I'd already paid the repair shop the $38 for diagnostics that I'd go ahead and have 'em fix it. But man, I've been without that turntable now since mid-December and I'm goin' through some major vinyl withdrawal!! Gotta admit, though, that CDs are a helluva lot more convenient for doing a radio show than spinnin' vinyl (and unfortunately vinyl releases get spun a lot less frequently than CDs because of it). Cueing up songs on vinyl can be quite a pain in the ass, especially if there's little or no space between songs. And ya feel like a real dope when ya start a 45 off at 33rpm (or vice-versa). Or how 'bout those occasional 12"s pressed at 45rpm? The Hentchmen's "Hentch-Forth" on Italy Records comes to mind). God, if I had a dime for every time I've done that! The worst is when 7"s are recorded at 33rpm (or when the speed can't be found on 'em anywhere). When I see a 7" I immediately think 45. So yeah, a coupla sets worth of back-to-back vinyl and I'm ready to call it a night! > 45s and 7" eps are always the best way for a young band to start out. You >can just concentrate that way on perfecting your best couple of tunes >instead of forcing half assed stuff that you and eveybody else is gonna hate >in a coupla years or just have forgotten, just to fill up space on some cd. True, but vinyl is also a bit more costly to produce than a demo CDR these days (not to mention harder to sell at your gigs). Especially if you wanna press an LP on vinyl. Usually ya have to order so many of 'em to reduce the per-unit cost that you end up with more copies than you'll EVER be able to sell.
