“I
Come Along On Saturday Morning Greeting Everybody With A Smile” Kicking things
off this week I have two Helsinki bands; one old, one new. First up its Smack
with a classic from their debut album “On You”. Secondly it’s 69 Eyes with a
new track from their soon to be released “Universal Monsters” CD. A couple of
shows ago I played some Pure Hell, well I play some more but this time it’s a
track from their unreleased “Black Box” album that Lemmy helped produce and
indeed added vocals to the song in question. Shooting back over to Scandinavia
and new music I play you a track from“Seal The Deal & Let’s Boogie” LP byVolbeat.
I only own the debut album by Flotsam and Jetsam subsequently I’ve forgotten
what they sound like, having not played in in 25 plus years. However their new
self-title album I’m really enjoying. I’m not sure if it’s just me but I’m
hearing, apart from some great Thrash drumming, hints of Progness. More
Queensrÿche than Dream Theater I think. Obviously I play a track for your
consideration. Gustav Wremer guitarist with Grande Royale contacted me with a
“Check out my band” e-mail, so I did and was mightily impressed, with
NickeAndersson at the production helm of their soon to be recorded third album,
but it’s a track from their second album that I air. Pledge Music time and
Brijitte West &The Desperate Hopefuls have just ventured down this route
for album number two. Brijitte kindly sent me a track from said album which I
of course play. Joining the former NY Loose vocalist in the Desperate Hopefuls
are Richie Hudson, Keef Gibbs and Robin Guy from the Fiascos, although Robin
can normally be found sitting on Sham 69’s drum stool. Following straight on
afterwards is the title track from The Breakdowns new single “Charity Case”.
The WitchDoktors new album “Voodoo Eye” and first since
2008s “$3 Hooker” is all set for release with a gig to launch it at The Alley
Cat in Denmark Street on June 2nd and to whet your appetite I play a
song from it. As promised on last week’s show I play a track from Desert
Rockers the Mojave Lords album “Unfuckwithable”. Zen Motel make a much welcomed
return to The Paranoid Squirrel with a track from their just released “Choking
On The Chrome (Part 1) ep. Looking forward to part 2 if part 1 is anything to go
by. A new, previously unheard live gig from Sonic’s Rendezvous Band recorded in
April 1976 is just about to be officially released by Easy Action Records.
Joining Fred “Sonic” Smith, Scott “Rock Action” Asheton and Scott Morgan on
this recording is original bassist WR Cooke. Finishing things off this week its
Vice Squad and a track from the Sophie Lancaster Foundation Charity CD which is
due for release this Summer.
