Nice thread. I think I bought all the Roy Loney albums back in the day at Moby Disc in Sherman Oaks. It was the record store used in Spinal Tap. Many a time, my wife and I would drive through the Hollywood Hills listening to a homemade tape of the Phantom Movers. Good times.
Well, you nailed it, Mazzy. A very enjoyable video. I haven't seen any of these shown before and some really choice cuts, too. The Loney and Ginsberg were top drawer. Thanks for jumping on board.
The original Telstar deserves an episode to itself, recorded as it was in Joe Meek's flat over a leather goods shop in London's Holloway Rd. His whole life was an incredibly bizarre one culminating in a tragic ending
Cool Stuff! I actually have The Spitballs(Full LP version), and the 2 Little Roger singles. Little Roger is my cousin-in-law. I remember seeing Roy Loney and the Phantom Movers perform live. I remember hearing that Contractions single and also that Ginsburg 45, maybe on KSAN or maybe KFJC....Thanks for the memories!!
As a Midwesterner I didn't have access to those Bay area singles ... but I do have that Roy Loney 7", which is a treasured ep, which I pulled to play. Thanks for the prompt. And as a side note I dig the channel. Keep on truckin'.
I fondly remember Stairway To Gilligan's and Kennedy Girls. I think I heard Birdbrain back in the day and thought it was William S. Burroughs. Great stuff!
"Infamous" is an apt description. The Little Roger song was a staple on Barry Hansen's Dr. Demento show. As many know, Barry and Randy California were housemates in Topanga Canyon. Ironically, Robert Plant liked the parody. Thanks, Mazzy !
Thanks for playing The Contractions and Roy Loney, too! I used to know Cathy Peck, and I hope she's doing all right. Too bad you didn't get to "Head Cheese" or anything else by Psychotic Pineapple. The Readymades and J.D.Buhl would have been nice to hear, too.
Just saw Puddles Pity Party do "Stairway to Gilligan's Island" back in December at the venue in SW Virginia where I am the Box Office Manager. Great version. I remember the Spitballs record. Roy Loney records are all great.
Cool to hear you play records. Those are some cool singles. Contractions and Bird Brain were my favesl. Hopefully they're so obscure you don't get any copyright strikes.
well, I'm not from the Bay area but I am heavy into punk and I have never heard any of these. So thank you for opening my eyes and ears. Never heard of the Spitballs but I did throw many in grade school.
Aah! The 3 year old me, in 1962, went crazy whenever Telstar by The Tornados came on the radio! It was only the 2nd British single to go to Number 1 in the States, after Stranger On The Shore.
Rather Ripped! I had forgotten the name of that store. Bought some great stuff there. They had a poster on the wall "Residents For Presidents". Love it. I have that Contractions 45. There album was pretty good too.
I have the Artistic as Hell EP, great record. And I didn't know there was a Spitballs single but i do have the quite enjoyable LP. As for the Contractions, with Mary Kelly in the band, hopefully they don't cover Link Wray's Jack the Ripper !
Drivin' by Pearl Harbor and the Explosions on 415 Records, Rock & Roll Weirdos by Leila and the Snakes & The KYA 1969 Tom Cambell Interview with John Lennon. Nice to know that I have One LP that you don't have The Spitballs. Let me know next time your in Portland. Saw one Pearl Harbors first shows at the Keystone Plan Alto, the crowd wanted an encore, the band did not have any other songs so they repeated the opening song.
I do have the Leila & the Snakes Pearl Harbor 45 and saw them with the Tubes several times. I used to have that Tom Cambell Lennon recording, but not on vinyl. Thanks!!!
What you might call the Spitballs is a 'studio band' because it was made up Berserkly artists or who might have been around at the time. The formula wasn't new. Cameo-Parkway did it way back when. Allen Ginsberg. lol Many, if not all of his 'readings' couldn't be played on the radio. Definitely not a Rod McKuen.
Mazzy, I was recently given a box of 45s with plenty of songs I have never heard before. One was a local band from Tacoma called Chinook. Song, What's Your Name. ua-cam.com/video/HsGSrbH2YdI/v-deo.htmlsi=9NvhBncPHKFBSPvt Have you heard of this band before?
Records you never heard? LOL I bet I got hundreds of 45s very few people ever heard Mazzy.... I have 2 or 3 albums like that too. On the albums and some 45s I can't find any reference's to them anywhere on the internet. Not knowing anything about the band or album is a real pain in the ass for me. When my curiosity is piqued it has to be satisfied or it's an open sore for years. I gotta "find out" and I'm not shy about it either. I guess I'm like that about everything.... In that state I become annoying probably. LOL

Please, I beg you, ( I hate to beg), give us more 45 RPM single play sessions!
I fondly remember Stairway To Gilligan's and Kennedy Girls. I think I heard Birdbrain back in the day and thought it was William S. Burroughs. Great stuff!
I remember my Goldmine years fondly! Just pouring through each issue's listings as soon as it appeared in my mailbox. Different times, for sure.

I almost forgot the Tubes were also on that show with the Ramones and Little Roger.

You get the notice within 5 minutes if the songs are blocked or you can’t monetize. In this case I can revenue share Maybe because they are so indie
@ Thanks. That’s good to know.

Never heard of the Spitballs but I did throw many in grade school.
I saw Little Roger and the Goosebumps at Winterland, they opened for the Ramons.
Aah! The 3 year old me, in 1962, went crazy whenever Telstar by The Tornados came on the radio! It was only the 2nd British single to go to Number 1 in the States, after Stranger On The Shore.
Jesus Mazzy. You literally have everything! Kudos!!
Birdbrain seems apropos for the times we are living in. Lovely tune. Fav - Telstar.
Skeleton Or Something The Other is my favorite McCartney. That was 5 I’ve never heard before.
“Birdbrain” is brilliant!
Gonna have to hit the attic for my 7” schizzle
Great video! I love seeing 7"s as much as a drum kit. 😍
My local shop just got in a copy of the Little Roger Kinks Sides EP last week, but without the picture sleeve. That Allen Ginsberg cut is choice.
I while back someone but the Spitballs version of Telstar on a mix they Gave me! I think It was my friend Tyler! Thumbs up! Trish
Rather Ripped! I had forgotten the name of that store. Bought some great stuff there. They had a poster on the wall "Residents For Presidents". Love it.
I have that Contractions 45. There album was pretty good too.
Good shop 🌟
That was excellent.
I have the Artistic as Hell EP, great record. And I didn't know there was a Spitballs single but i do have the quite enjoyable LP. As for the Contractions, with Mary Kelly in the band, hopefully they don't cover Link Wray's Jack the Ripper !
That was an interesting!! Enjoyed
"Birdbrain" seems very appropriate today for 47....
Totally. Topical 👊🏻
You're right never heard of them
Birdbrain the National Anthem.

Mazzy , the one Kinks side record sound like Cinnamon Girl from Neil Young. What are they playing Cinnamon Girl or just sound like Cinnamon Girl?
@@Vinylclassicrecords you didn’t pay attention to my intro. Kennedy girls is not the Kinks Side. But it’s the same group group.
Hey I want to Live With A Kennedy Girl too

Love Birdbrain👍

Joe Meek the great madman though.
I like all of this music, really good. That Contractions had to be Blondie
@@RixVSpinner62 the Contractions were a great band but that record does sound a lot like Blondie
Hey Mazzy. Excellent! This is a cool challenge. Cheers
So many adverts in this video. Boo Tube!!!
Great video though ❤
