Danny & the Dressmakers - Please Don't Make Another Bass Guitar, Mr Rickenbacker?

We didn't get much UK distro & I tried dropping some off at Piccadilly years ago, but they weren't interested. The 1979 recordings on Auricle is also really cool long/zonked out jams.

Nice. Yeah, I wanna order some for our shop.

GAM (Gunter Schickert)- Eiszeit LP - 70's Krautrock Underground German kosmic rock band GAM recorded their sole record, Eisziet, in 1978 and then shelved it after the master tape disappeared....

We put out this GAM lp back 2015 & it didn't get much hype so it took ages for people to learn about, but we are down to our last copies & it won't be repressed. So if you dig Krautrock, Ash Ra, or AR & the Machines, order now or cry later when it's expensive.

the drills - no more beer YouTube video by dirtyknobby

Drills - No More Beer. As someone who thinks hardcore should be as tuneless as possible, I was pumped to discover early 80s outsider Seattle HC band, the Drills, and we put out their 7" in 2007. They had a bunch of demo songs and we picked our fav/most damaged songs.

Bill Dixon and University of the Streets Orchestra - 1968-XX-XX, New York, NY YouTube video by Vintage Music Experience

Bill Dixon - live in '68. A lot of heavies on this one including an early (first recorded?) appearance by Arthur Doyle.

Frankenstein was also an early version of the Dead Boys.

RIP Günter Schickert. Truly one of the great unsung heroes of the underground German music scene.

HARDWARE - UNTITLED LP, 1979 Formed in 1977, the Cheltenham-based band Hardware drew inspiration from proto-punk, Krautrock, the CBGBs scene, Pere Ubu, and the more adventurous...

If you are still looking for a gift for that Messthetics/70s UK post-punk fan in your life, may I suggest our awesome Hardware retrospective? Pairs well w/ the Homosexuals, Reptile Ranch, pragVEC, Normil Hawaiians, Glaxo Babies, Happy Refugees, etc.

TIL that Hans Reichel & Achim Knispel had a late 60s underground German avant-rock band called Horizon Cee who, according to Crack in the Cosmic Egg guy, did sorta Cream/Plastic Ono/psych jazz jams

That & Closer are my fav Bley records...probably because they both include Ida.

Double-O - Discography (1981-1983) YouTube video by The Hardcore\Punk Archive

Surprised Dischord or some other enterprising label hasn't done a Double O retrospective.

Pink Floyd (minus Syd) & Blue Cheer is a killer pairing. Seattle, 1968.

Modern English - Gathering Dust YouTube video by richardhell73

Like a lot of folks of a certain age, I only knew Modern English from "Melt With You" and never bothered to check out their earlier stuff & that's a shame cuz they were quite solid. This song sound like a post-punk band channeling Hawkwind. youtu.be/C3FJ9vFFnjo?...

Killer!
