Bungi - Numbers

We came here to turn you one, so we're gonna sing our song!

Total bone head rocker with no real redeeming value but to make you shake your ass and chug your tall boys.

Party the fuck on!

Bungi - Numberi

The Werks - I Got The Feeling

Another little known heavy rock 45. Sort of like a heavy Bloodrock or Vanilla Fudge. Great fuzzy guitar riff and a killer wha wha solo and organ spiced throughout. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

The Werks - I Got The Feeling

Spider Kelly - Infatuation

I had a complete and total computer failure after 10 years of filling it up with music and pictures and pretty much lost everything. Fresh start i guess. Still way bummed out but the wife bought me an early 50th birthday present. Yeah, I will be fucking 50 this year. Fuck me.... I NEVER thought i'd live this long but i am glad i did. So here is the 1st post on the new computer. A 45 i just picked up online. I knew nothing about this and had never seen it, but how can you go wrong with a dude named "Spider Kelly" and a song called "Infatuation" on "Criminal Records"? Don't know the year and anything else really. It's a good thud / bone head rocker, which is where my head is at these daze.... Enjoy!

Spider Kelly - Infatuation

Clockwork - Cybernaut / Mean Lady

A great heavy prog instrumental on the A side which for my money ends to soon and abrupt. Seems like they start start really cooking and then they were like "shit that's all that is going to fit on the 45!" and end the jam suddenly. Too bad really, because like most proggy goodness i could listen to these stoners ramble semi aimlessly for hours. Side B is more of a crunchy rocker with a great fuzzed out solo. Reminds me of maybe Stepson or Kin Ping Meh a bit. Ace 45.

Dynamite Butch - Freedom Song

I'm back!

Hitting you with a heavy riff rocker with a killer guitar solo and some weird/wild synth action from Dynamite Butch circa 1974.

Thanks to the wife for fixing my broken shit!

Bill Monroe And His Blue Grass Boys - Cheyenne

Pretty killer country instrumental that's very reminiscent of Hank Williams Kaw-Liga.

Autumn People - See It Through - Never See The Sun

The Charmaines - Keep On Seachin ' / Smile

To those out there that think social media is a total waste of time, let me present this 45 to you. While I agree a lot of social media is a dump for the self absorbed, occasionally it can have positive results. In this case, it provided me with this 45 on the cheap, from a relative stranger, a person who I follow on instagram. I knew nothing about this 45 (and still don't) but the person who i follow (not gonna mention any names unless dude tell me otherwise and is cool with it) posted this 45 w/ a sound clip saying he picked up 2 copies on the cheap. i made a low offer half kidding and he upped it by a slight margin. A couple of days later and it showed up in my mail box. Sweet. Just goes to show that there are still cool folks out there in the world. Now enjoy this great soulful funky 45 from 1969 on the Minit Record label by The Charmaines. Cheers!

St. Steven - Ay-Aye-Poe-Day

Promo single from the pretty great 1969 album by St. Steven on Probe Records. I own the reissue of the self-titled album. One of these days i will track down an OG copy, but the prices these days are a bit more than my pocket can handle at the moment. Anyone holding and wants to part at a "bro price" let me know! For now, this OG 45 will have to hold me over. Great fuzz guitar.

Pookah - Merlin's Party

Moody organ psych from 1969 by Pookah w/ a slightly evil tinge. I've never heard the full length album. Anyone know how the album stands up to this song?

Pookah - Merlin's Party

The Young Ones - No, No Don't Make Me Cry

I don't know the year on this but it's some soulful doo-wop so i'm guessing late in the game. Maybe 1963/64, but that is just a guess.... (while writing this i found out they formed in 1963 so my hunch was just about spot on) What little i could find out about the group was that they were of "Hispanic extraction".... The White Doo-Wop Collector has a nice little write up on the group.

The Young Ones - No, No Don't Make Me Cry

Human Beinz - I've Got To Keep On Pushin'

Someday the light will shine on me....

Andy Doll - Hey Ba Ba Re Bop - Rollin Rhythm

Early morning coffee and some rare rockabilly from 1958 on Ad Records. 7 men playing 17 instruments... Huh?

Chuck Bene With Johnny Dentz's Hillrockers - Come Back Baby

Eddie Ford - The Drag

Rockin' little instrumental with some fine guitar work from 1959 or 1960? from Eddie Ford and his orchestra on the Sabrina Records label. Other than that, i got nothing....


Eddie Ford - The Drag

Steel Wool - Hold On, I'm Comin'

Rare cover tune of the famous Sam & Dave track by Steel Wool from 1970. This 45 has seen better days but it's a pretty cool cut with some fine guitar work & vocals. I got this in a deal where i bought some punk rock records and dude threw in some pretty trashed soul 45's. So please excuse the pop and hiss. Get past that and enjoy some fuzzy ax work and strong funky vocals.

Steel Wool - Hold On, I'm Comin'

The Palisades - This Is The Nite - Relic Rock

Cool little record on a cool little label. Front side is a doo wopper and this being from 1964 they must have been hanging on to that sound for dear life, as that was the beggining of the end for that style w/ the British invasion and all. The back side is a soulful instrumental stroller. Nothing amazing but pretty neat.

Joe Clay - Duck Tails / Sixteen Chicks

Rockabilly from 1956 from Joe Clay on the Vik label.

Joe Clay (b. Claiborne Joseph Cheramie, 1939) is an American rockabilly musician from Gretna, Louisiana.
Clay first began performing at age 12 in a country band, who were offered a spot performing on local radio station WWEZ. RCA subsidiary Vik Records signed him a few years later, while he was still in his teens; he recorded in New York with guitarists Mickey Baker and Skeeter Best, bassist Leonard Gaskin, and drummers Bobby Donaldson and Joe Marshall. In 1956, he appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show, a few months before Elvis Presley played there, and played a cover of The Platters' hit "Only You". Clay would later play guitar on some of Elvis's recordings, but his manager would not let him tour outside the New Orleans area, and he never scored a hit.
After being dropped from RCA, he continued performing in New Orleans for over 30 years. In the 1980s, the rockabilly revival in Europe resulted in renewed interest in Clay; he then toured England in 1986.
Further info about Joe Clay is from source LP 'Ducktail' in 1986; Bear Family Records BFX 15224 (made in West Germany).
Drove a school bus for 15 yrs. in the New Orleans area (reported on the back LP cover in 1986 from Bear Records)
LP back cover "During 1955 his local reputation enabled him to play the prestigious Louisiana Hayride out of Shreveport where he shared billing with the newly emerging Elvis Presley." It also mentions he even filled in as a drummer for Elvis when he played Pontchartrain Amusement Park in New Orleans and D.J. Fontana could not make the gig.
Joe Clay's parents encouraged an early interest in country music and at the age of 12, he was already a competent drummer, later also learning rhythm guitar & electric bass.
The LP "Ducktail" back cover article was written by Ian Wallis, June 1986.
In 2008, Joe Clay appeared in an award-winning Canadian documentary entitled Rockabilly 514 directed by Patricia Chica and Mike Wafer. He speaks about his early beginnings as a rockabilly musician in the 1950s and his fascination for the new generation of rockabilly kids. He's also seen performing live his single Sixteen Chicks among an enthusiastic crowd of young rockabilly fans.
