Everyone knows I love a good theme, and this brand new idea came earlier this month when I was playing the remastered version of Slim Dunlap’s “Loud Loud Loud Loud Guitars” on the new release episode. How about a show devoted to nothing but songs about guitars? Or even songs that mention guitars in the lyrics? This seemed to be an easy-peasy idea. But I wanted some input from my friends, especially for the songs that fit the theme that may not have the word “guitar” in the title. So I put up a post on Facebook, and the results greatly helped tonight’s show. Thank you to everybody who contributed to that post. As I was filling up the folder for this show, though, I quickly discovered that I had way more songs than I needed. This means that tonight’s show is part one of a two part series. Due to the March new release episodes, though, part two will not happen until the second half of the month. But I promise that episode will be as fabulous as tonight’s was. Do you have any songs to consider for the future episode? Which tracks did you enjoy the most this […]

While the Nuggets sets may get all the praise (and deservedly so), I actually prefer the Back From The Grave series. It’s just that much more noisy, full of snarled vocals and fuzztone guitars. Just listen to the opening track of tonight’s show, the Swamp Rats version of “Psycho”, a song mostly known for the legendary take by The Sonics. Nothing against that original version, as The Sonics’ version does indeed blast away at a ferocity that influenced punk and garage bands for the past 60 years. But the Swamp Rats go a step further. No, make it two steps further. This is a truly unhinged take, and sets the stage for the next two hours of tonight’s broadcast. I was inspired to do this show simply because I decided at the beginning of the week to listen to all ten volumes this week. It’s been 60s rock and roll heaven for me, as these tunes truly do represent the vast majority of music I have listened to all of my life. Weirdly, though, I didn’t realize this fact for a long, long time as I never had these compilations until they appeared on CD in the early 90s! What […]
