    Hey wait just a second here! I could’ve sworn I’ve seen this video before but I watched it while standing on my head! LoL! Loved the PuffnStuff clip and the ska track about Michael the RudeBoy playing over it! Dig that Suzi Quatro LP! That guy that looks like Lemmy doing a Big Chug on the cover is actually her husband if ai remember right. Stumblin’ In is def a departure from Suzi’s usually glam stomping rock When I was a kid that song got played on the radio constantly!
    Killer Yardbirds pick up! That album has eluded me forever!
    I rather like that Nazz LP. It does have a poppiness to it but man there are some great tracks on it Open My Eyes is a great pop psych song! Seems like people either love Todd Rundgren or hate him I think he’s super talented I mean the guy def has an ear for cool music as a producer and he was a brilliant songwriter and artist as well! Here’s a little known fact about Todd He was actually in a version of The Cars in the early 2000’s It was a short lived project that also included Prairie Prince from The Tubes on drums and 2 original members of The Cars. Pretty Wild right?
    Very cool vid Glad you scored some goodies with your gift card! Love your channel George! You always show such interesting content! Oh I almost forgot! I paid tribute to you in my last video by wearing the same kind of hat you wear in your vids! LoL! Peace ✨✌️👽✨

      Hahaha, I love HR puff n stuff and all the Sid and Marty Croft stuff. I actually wanted to put in a clip of the slee staks from land of the last but couldn’t find a clip of them dancing!! I have a feeling you’d like that rude boy track! Thanks for watching it a second time and putting up with technical difficulties!

    I love We Are The One, but how much for an original? 😮 Saw a reformed Avengers live in Glasgow a couple of years ago and they were brilliant.
    Art Attacks were cartoonist Savage Pencil's band.
    I got that Roger the Engineer reissue too - excellent!

      500 bucks for an original of we are the one! I will have to check out savage pencils work, Iv been slowly building up a collection of mostly graphic design but also some illustration books but figure no one would be interested in seeing them. Really been enjoying your channel, thanks for watching!

    Nice haul George, that Cramps 7 inch looks great. I have that album you showed, the recording is fine on mine. Maybe loss of quality on later copies? Why do you stop and wave at the camera? 😂

      Hey Mike! The cramps 45 is awesome, it’s one of those ones that’s been bootlegged since the mid 80s. Haha the waving is my signal to myself to edit a part out and I must have missed it! It probably made me look like an idiot but who cares haha

    Nice opening with Randoms, sounds pretty cool. I have a Cramps bootleg with Hurricane Fighter Plane on it. What a great song, though I do prefer the version by Red Krayola. Too bad the Cramps never did a studio recording of it. Suzi Quatro was big when I was in high school, that's a really good album, and you're right about her going soft on later albums, I prefer her glam sound. Nice Cramps boot, I have that one and I think it sounds pretty good, plus great picture of Ivy on the front! I had a CD of the Iggy Pop mix of Raw Power, I think it's OK, but I prefer the Bowie mix over Iggy's, either way, it's a great album. Love that Yardbirds album, Happenings... is my favorite track on that. If you happen to come across a Yardbirds album called Over Under Sideways Down, you might want to skip it, because it's just the US version of the one you showed with the same songs. Nice haul George, thanks for sharing and take care.

    Hi George, great video - what was that dance sequence from while playing The Cowboys record? Never seen that before. Nice Cramps bootlegs. I saw Suzi Quatro live back in the day probably 1974 when that album came out, they were superb. Suzi looked great in the black leather jump suit. I think Chris Spedding borrowed it from her when he played live.
    Cheers, Paul

      The dance clip is from a late 60s American kids show called H. R. Puff n Stuff. It’s very weird and psychadelic. It was made by two brothers, Sid and Marty Kroft, who did a lot of very bizarre children’s show in the late 60s early 70s. Check out Land of the lost, Sigmund and the sea monster, the bugaloos and the lost saucer. It’s some my favorite American pop culture from that era, very kitschy. So cool you got to see Suzi! Thanks for watching Paul!

      @@block-head2982 There were many suoerb British (some 'pyschedelic') children's TV programmes back in the day - The Clangers, Rhubard and Custard, Mr Ben and Trumptonl to name a few. Thankfully all still on UA-cam.
