music in the shed

Another rockin' foot tapper for ya, from those leather clad lovelies, the Cycle Sluts From Hell with Wish You Were A Beer. There's a Singing In The Rain riff part way through, enjoy !

If you enjoy a bit of rockabilly/psychobilly, then here's The Cramps with Bikini Girls With Machine Guns. What's not to like, it's the Cramps fer fuck's sake !!

And this delicate little number from the Butthole Surfers titled Who Was In My Room Last Night. Love the trippy video. Turn the volume up & get this down yer ear's !!
 
Poison Ivy, remarkable in all her forms. Lux the companion at home and on stage. The video of "Do the twist, sans cloths... a fav.

Highly gifted, Johnette Napolitano, Bloodletting live, yes.... think i will post, too good to let history silence...

 
So here's a lively little tune that you can sing to your cherished pride & joy, as you do your thing down a favourite stretch of road, or having a blast round a race track. Another one from Aussie band Spiderbait & this is called Fucken Awesome. Turn it up & enjoy !!

Swell Maps , good man !!
I have been a fan of their music since the 80's. They were a fave indie/punk/garage band of John Peel.
Best 2 albums by far were A Trip To Marineville & International Rescue. If you get the CD albums there are extra tracks for your listening pleasure.

Some more good stuff to get down yer ears. These little beauties are from a rockin' bunch of lads known as Ten Benson. Give them a listen.
First off is Black Snow.

This is I Don't Buy It.

And here's a fave of John Peel's that you might've heard on the radio from back in the day, The Claw.
 
Actual motorcycle connection... In 1982 I was in a bar in Ramsay, IOM where I encountered
"Johnny and the Roccos" performing "Stompin with the Wildcats". Bring out your drainies
and brothel creepers !! Those guys energy at the time is not done justice by the YouTube
videos of the boys from 2015...but you get the message. Thank God in those magic days
of the British discovering,embellishing and gloriously introducing Rockabilly to the new
generation. Thank God for the Big Ocean separating the UK and N. America and the two
musical cultures existing separately and the English can certainly be thanked for North
Americans being re-introduced to their homegrown Blues culture and music. Still on the
fence about "The Rockin' Vicars" though....

Well said mate. Saw a couple of rockabilly bands over there as well. The Polecats and Matchbox memorably, although there were others at local pub venues I can’t remember. We’ve always kept that spirit alive in the UK. Another Scottish band from those days to check out are The Shakin Pyramids who had a short career before splitting. Not much available of them live but I remember seeing them on Pebble Mill, a UK lunchtime programme from the era. Lonnie Donnegan performed with them on the show too. They only released two albums. The first, Skin ‘em Up, from 1981 is great.
Steve.

No video but just watched Neil’s Youngs set at Glastonbury over the weekend - absolute legend - great songs from a real rocker - hopefully it might appear on YouTube - he’s approaching 80 and played like a young thing with tenderness where required acoustically and with a rock menace on electric with his band the chrome hearts 😉
