Ollie & the Nightingales "Stax 68-71: Ollie & The Nightingales"

This Memphis group included some excellent vocalists, although they didn't enjoy as much success as some other Stax artists. Ollie Nightingale (born Ollie Hoskins), Quincy Clifton Billops, Jr., Nelson Lesure, Bill Davis, and Rochester Neal were the original members. Billops had been in the Mad Lads. Their biggest single was "I Got a Sure Thing" in 1968, which made the R&B Top 20. It was also their lone hit. Nightingale left in 1970 and was replaced by Sir Mack Rice. Neal, Billops, and Davis became the Ovations in 1972. ~ Ron Wynn, All Music GuideAppetizing Southern soul by Ollie & the Nightingales, one of Stax Records' many poorly promoted vocal groups. These 19 tracks (from 1968-1971) come from the pens of some of Stax's most renowned songwriters, including Eddie Floyd, Isaac Hayes, David Porter, Booker T. Jones, Al Bell, Homer Banks, and Mack Rice. Every singer that came through Memphis, TN, chomped a bit from Ollie Haskins' expressive style. A lilting rendition of "I've Never Found a Girl (To Love Me Like You Do)" pricks nerves that are normally dormant; "I'll Be Your Everything" is quintessential Southern soul; they share a mic with Mack Rice on "Don't Let a Good Thing Go"; and "I Don't Want to Be Like My Daddy" (written by Haskins) puts some family business in the streets. While not a complete overview of Ollie & the Nightingales' career ("I Got a Sure Thing," their first and most popular Stax recording, isn't among the 19 tracks), it's a helluva start. (Andrew Hamilton, All Music Guide)

"Kennedy’s Blues" - African-American Blues and Gospel Songs on JFK

Here's A Really Great R&B and Blues Compilation! Some Really Passionate & Raw R&B from The 60's.Guido van Rijn presents a compilation and analysis of the many blues and gospel songs written about the inspirational president.
Kennedy's Blues: African American Blues and Gospel Songs on JFK collects in a single volume the blues and gospel songs written by African Americans about the presidency of John F. Kennedy and offers a close analysis of Kennedy's hold upon the African American imagination. These blues and gospel songs have never been transcribed and analyzed in a systematic way, so this volume provides a hitherto untapped source on the perception of one of the most intriguing American presidents.
After eight years of Republican rule the young Democratic president received a warm welcome from African Americans. However, with the Cold War military draft and the slow pace of civil rights measures, inspiration temporarily gave way to impatience.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Medgar Evers, the March on Washington, the groundbreaking civil rights bill--all found their way into blues and gospel songs. The many blues numbers devoted to the assassination and the president's legacy are evidence of JFK's near-canonization by African Americans. Blues historian Guido van Rijn shows that John F. Kennedy became a mythical hero to blues songwriters despite what was left unaccomplished.
Twenty-eight of the songs discussed in the text are available on a CD produced by Agram Blues (ABCD 2019) to accompany this book. Digitally remastered and featuring full liner notes by the author, the CD is a unique historical document of the Kennedy presidency.

"RED WITH PURPLE FLASHES" Vol 2 VA - LP

"I ain't no Mod, but Mod Music I dig! Such a sampler is very exciting because there aren't many Mod comps around...... You find bits and pieces of this swinging beat here, there and everywhere, but hardly ever a whole platter devoted to it (got to mention the awesome Doin' The Mod Vol 1 CD at this point, you need that!). Although this sampler is not really 100% Mod guaranteed, it's close enough. More than half of the bands are from the UK, but you also got recordings made in the US of A, Sweden, the Netherlands, Spain, France and Israel (the only weak cut here, a cover of the American Breed's "Cool It").
Strangely the first two cuts are the least Mod of the bunch. Wishful Thinking's "Step By Step" is a nice bubblegumish number, while Act Of Creation's "Yesterday Noon Time" is more in Pop-Psych territory. But a lot of the Mod spectrum is to be found within the other sides. Johnny Deen's awesome cover of "Shotgun" stands somewhere between the Creation and the Artwoods. The other Wishful Thinking number ("Is She A Woman Now") is actually ala The Creation, while Jean-Pierre Messiera's exploitation style instrumental steals bits and pieces from the Artwoods' version of "I Feel Good". Patterson's People make me think of John Mayall '65 (before he became a blues wanker), and Action fans will probably dig the Groove's "Play That Song".
The Who are not forgotten with a pretty neat version of "Call Me Lightning" by the Good Vibrations and the Travel Agency tough popster "Come To Me". No Small Faces wannabees, but you'll find a bit of Trogg in the acid freakbeat "No-one" by Legay, some Easybeat among the Summerset's "What Are You Gonna Do" and one of the most fantastic - though the shortest ever - Yardbird style rave-up in the killer "Drollery" by the Fun Of It. My fave track is the classic " I'm On My Way " by the Lee Kings, but I guess everybody knows that one already. A pretty neat sampler indeed." - Laurent Bigot (Originally published in Ugly Things #19, 2001)traxfromwax:

One from the latest album and another from the latest EP (Hands Down). The only bands on this CD that I've never heard of before Viva Death and Rocket from the Crypt.

"JERK! SHAKE! AND VIBRATE!" VA

Ultra dancers on this fab 60's soul, boogaloo & R&B comp.Given the hot little groovers on here, it's hard not to jerk, shake, and vibrate when listening to this set -- as the collection's stuffed with loads of funky soul tunes! The package dips into the far end of the 60s indie scene -- going for obscure 45s issued on small labels that mostly never got proper distribution -- with a sound that's informed by the harder and deeper soul artists of the time, but carried off with a lot more energy and pure raw power than the acts that ever made it on the radio! CD version features 24 tracks in all -- with titles that include "I Do The Jerk" by Bil Pinkney, "The James Brown Bougelou" by Little Genie Brooks, "Mister CC" by Jim Pipkins & The Boss Five, "Let's Monkey Again" by The Persians, "Thread The Needle" by Al White & The Hi-Liters, and "Funky Funky Horse" by Lester Young & The California Playboys (Dusty Groove)

Billy Strange "Strange Country" 1966

"Hi Ryp, here's an odd one for you: Billy Strange, "Strange Country". It's a fantastic mix of lounge, country with a twang of surf thrown in for good measure. I have the liner notes for those that are interested, but my scanner has packed up so I won't be able to get them to you until later. In the meantime, hope you enjoy this CD! Cheers" - RussHerein lies one of the most aptly titled records to ever come out of Nash Vegas. Billy Strange's Strange Country is full of all sorts of sounds that would make producers on the underground tip go wild today. When it came out back in the '60s, no one knew quite to make of it, with its layers of 6-, 12- and even 8-string guitars, banjos, tambourines, maracas, and what not. Whether it was Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright," or Barry McGuire's "Green Green," or even "Stranger in Your Town," these tunes were plucked, picked, strummed, and beaten out of acoustic guitars and other strings; mandolins played a role too, primarily as percussion instruments. This baby is psychedelic without meaning to be and is a bona fide weirdo classic. ~ Thom Jurek
Recorded in the 1960s (the liner notes do not specify the exact date), this was a sessionman supersession of sorts, also featuring Joe Maphis on banjo, Tommy Tedesco on second guitar, Jimmy Bond on bass, and Earl Palmer on drums. Strange offers fluid, crisp instrumental interpretations of a mixed bag of folk and pop tunes, including not only "Don't Think Twice It's Alright" and "Green, Green," but also compositions by Lee Hazlewood, Jimmy Bond, and Rod McKuen. It's like a marriage of bluegrass picking with pop arrangements, and as of the late '90s was the most readily available recording of Strange's vintage work. ~ Richie Unterberger

ROBOCOP KRAUS "BLUNDERS & MISTAKES" 2007

I stumbled upon a previous album these guys created and enjoyed it enough to pick up this one. There isn't a single track that I dislike. I hope they come stateside in the near future! If you're looking for something different, give these guys (and this album) a try! - By Stephen Milner (Raleigh, NC)Endlich da, das neue Album der einzigen aktuellen fränkischen Indieband von Weltruf. Nach dem zweiten einschneidenden Besetzungswechsel - diesmal am Bass - war es sicher nicht besonders einfach, die Truppe auf ein neues Album einzuschwören. Producer Tobias Levin hat aber vielleicht gerade deswegen hier hervorragende Arbeit geleistet und den Robos zu einem echten Sprung nach Vorn, zu einer echten musikalischen Weiterentwicklung verholfen. Wo man früher vielleicht noch unbeholfen klang, klingt man heute ausgefeilt, wo man früher vielleicht überdreht war, ist man heute filigran und verspielt. Man hört ein klares Plus an Harmonie, an Virtuosität und Emotionenvielfalt. "Blunders & Mistakes" lässt die eher vierschrötige LP "They think they are The Robocop Kraus" vergessen, geht einen Schritt zurück zum Ideenreichtum von "Living with other people" und bewegt sich zwei Schritte in Sachen Professionalität und Pop-Appeal nach vorne. Obwohl man reinrassige Hymnen und Tanzflurbomben vermisst, hat dieses Album mit dem Titeltrack, "Blood on the pullover" und "Snake" doch drei hochkarätige Hits in sich und darüber hinaus mit "Ease the pain" und "Gibraltar" auch balladeske, ruhig bis nachdenkliche Stücke aufzuweisen, die man in dieser Qualität von den Jungs nicht unbedingt erwartet hätte. Good job, fake boys! - Von Mr.Fonk (Offenbach/Main)
German - English translation:
Finally, there, the new album of the only actual Frankish Indieband of world-wide reputation. After the second drastic occupation change - this time in the bass - it was not certainly especially easy to swear the troop to a new album. However, Producer Tobias Levin has performed maybe just so here excellent work and has helped the Robos to a real jump after In front, to a real musical advancement. Where one still sounded clumsy earlier maybe, today one sounds polished where one was maybe overwound earlier, today one is filigree and gambled away. One hears a clear plus in harmony, in virtuosity and emotion variety." Blunders & Mistakes" lets forget the rather square-built LP "They think they are The Robocop Kraus", goes for 1 step back to the wealth of ideas of "Living with other people" and moves two steps in the matter of professionalism and Pop-Appeal forwards. Although one misses pedigree hymns and dance hall bombs, nevertheless, this album with the title track, "Blood on the pullover" and "Snake" has to show three high-carat hits in itself and, in addition, with "Ease the pain" and "Gibraltar" also balladeske, quietly to the pensive pieces which one would not necessarily have expected in this quality from the boys.

The Rolling Stones "Between The Buttons" 1967 (Mono Edition)

The Rolling Stones' 1967 recordings are a matter of some controversy; many critics felt that they were compromising their raw, rootsy power with trendy emulations of the Beatles, Kinks, Dylan, and psychedelic music. Approach this album with an open mind, though, and you'll find it to be one of their strongest, most eclectic LPs, with many fine songs that remain unknown to all but Stones devotees. The lyrics are getting better (if more savage), and the arrangements more creative, on brooding near-classics like "All Sold Out," "My Obsession," and "Yesterday's Papers." "She Smiled Sweetly" shows their hidden romantic side at its best, while "Connection" is one of the record's few slabs of conventionally driving rock. But the best tracks were the two songs that gave the group a double-sided number one in early 1967: the lustful "Let's Spend the Night Together" and the beautiful, melancholy "Ruby Tuesday," which is as melodic as anything Mick Jagger and Keith Richards would ever write. - Richie Unterberger, AMG

Zeke "Death Alley" 2001

Blazing riffs, machine-gun drumming, screaming mad vocals... everything a truely great punk record should be made of. Tracks such as "Nightrider" and "Crossroads" show Zeke as a progressive outfit exploring new grounds with speed-metalish melodies and solos, whereas "Live Wire", "Eyes of Satan", and "Mountain Man" (among others) are reminiscent of the devastatingly headbangable likes of earlier Zeke albums.
Only two minor complaints: 1) Zeke really need to make longer albums, and 2) I liked Blind Marky's more raspy tone of voice he had on "Dirty Sanchez". He takes a slightly smoother approach here.
This isn't to say the album doesn't render weakling wannabe punk groups like Blink 182 and Good Charlotte utterly worthless, because it does. Buy it and rock on. - By Thgew (CA)trax:

REDD KROSS "PHASESHIFTER" 1993

On Phaseshifter, Redd Kross has stripped away many of the '60s and '70s pop-culture trappings that figured prominently on earlier recordings (covers of Brady Bunch and Charles Manson songs, for instance).... As a result, the band (basically brothers Jeffrey and Steven McDonald) have brought their strong melodic sense, psychedelic punk/metal mix, and fine harmonies to the fore on standout tracks like "Lady in the Front Row" and "Monolith." The brothers' '70s-TV obsession certainly hasn't disappeared, though, as evidenced by songs like "After School Special" and the Partridge Family-inspired cut "Dumb Angel" (Susan Dey being replaced here by keyboardist Gere Fennelly); but they seem more bent on cutting straightforward and driving, power pop/rock anthems than going in for their '80s-style, HR Pufnstuf form of garage psychedelia, and even the paisley is conspicuously missing, replaced by t-shirts and jeans. Is the shift due in part to the pervasive influence of grunge and Nirvana? Maybe. But one should remember that, as early as 1980, Redd Kross was incorporating the same Black Flag, hardcore stylings that Cobain and company were admittedly inspired by. It doesn't really matter, though, since this album stands on it own just fine, especially considering the inclusion of one of the band's best rockers ("Crazy World") and most rewarding pop tunes ("Pay for Love"). For some great Redd Kross music, get both Phaseshifter and the band's 1997 release, Show World. (by Stephen Cook, All Music Guide)trax:

Die Wiederauferstehung von RADIO BIRDMAN, STOOGES und MC5 ereignete sich in Toulouse! Aber warum kennt die keiner? Die JERRY SPIDER GANG jedenfalls steckt 90% aller Skandinavier in die Tasche, hat ohne Ende Groove und einen Gitarrensound, der so abgrundtieg dreckig klingt, dass man die Gedanken dessen, der sie spielt, gar nicht kennen will.

Lime Spiders "Slave Girl" 1985 12'/33rpm + Lime Spiders "Weirdo Libido" 1986 7'/45rpm

And then my mind split open... "The Lime Spiders", another great band from Sidney!Lime Spider frontman Mick Blood is offended by the term ‘garage music’. An intriguing notion since the Lime Spiders have forever been linked with 60s ‘Nuggets’ style music and referred to as a garage band. Indeed, they were instrumental in helping the paisley rise from the underground on the back of a thumpin’ slice of flower punk called ‘Slave Girl’ – one of the biggest selling independent singles in Australia’s rock history. After 6 months of gigging the band took another break and Jakimyszyn went to play for a while with the Celibate Rifles. He returned in March as the Lime Spiders went to the studio to record their second single, "Slave Girl" with "Beyond The Fringe". The eighth single released by Citadel Records, "Slave Girl" was the number one indie single in Australia for 1984 with over 5,000 copies sold...a staggering quantity for a country with such a small population. The single A side features a simple, brutal riff played over and over until the listener is completely overpowered, and with Mick's throat-demolishing vocal on top of it, the result is about as barbaric as anyone could ask for. The flip is more uptempo and also excellent, though certainly not the signature piece that "Slave Girl" is.
After the single came out, the band added guitarist Gerard Corbin, also formerly of the Most. The addition of Corbin to complement Jakimyszyn gave the Lime Spiders one of the toughest twin guitar sounds since Radio Birdman, and their popularity rose dramatically on the strength of the band's improved playing and the notoriety provided by "Slave Girl". This in turn led to the overseas release of a 12" mini-lp that compiled all 6 of their recorded songs under the "Slave Girl" title. This release seemed to break open the floodgates of international underground acceptance, and articles about the band began to appear in hip fanzines worldwide. The Lime Spiders were becoming a big name in indie circles.Lime Spiders:
Mick Blood: voc / Richard Jakimyszyn: guitar / Daryl Mather: guitar / Dave Guest: bass / Steve Rawles: drums / Tony Bambach: bass, voc / Richard Lawson: drums, voc / Gerard Corben: guitar / Warwick Gilbert: bass / Bruce Tatham: keyb / Bill Gibson: voc
