Gang War: Johnny Thunders: guitar & vocals / Wayne Kramer: guitar & vocals / Bobby Thomas: bass / John Morgan: drums.

"In late 1979 former New York Dolls guitarist Johnny Thunders teamed up with former MC5 guitarist Wayne Kramer (right after Wayne was released from jail) in a band called Gang War. Other members included John Morgan, Ron Cooke and Philippe Marcade. They recorded several demos and performed live several times. Gang War disbanded before releasing any actual LP, but there are a few bootleg recordings of their studio demos and live performances circulating; One semi-official live/studio vinyl only LP was released on Zodiac Records, credited to Thunders and Kramer and titled Gang War, it is easily available from specialist retailers."

"Gang War came about shortly after Johnny Thunders released his 'So Alone' album, and Wayne Kramer was not long out of jail after serving two years of a sentence of four for a coke bust. Arriving in Detroit with the Heartbreakers, Johnny met his teenage idol Wayne who jammed with them at the gig. Johnny stayed on, moving his family to Michigan and pledging his future to Gang War. They toured regularly and recorded a couple of demos with a view to getting a deal, but they couldn't get record company interest and after eight or nine months they split. Although Gang War released no records and at the time they got little attention, in retrospect the collaboration is looked on as a 'rock fantasy' supergroup. These live recordings bear testimony to this unique partnership between two renowned rock guitar icons. On the recordings, both contribute lead vocals and guitars on Thunders and Dolls tracks, songs familiar from Kramer and MC5 and fascinating cover versions."

"This cd is a mix of two seperate Gang War shows, and on the first show the band is in pretty good form and the sound is pretty good. It really does sound like a cross between The Heartbreakers and the MC5. Johnny's guitar is there in all it's buzzsaw glory, and every once in a while Wayne lets some wild acid drenched lines fly, and their styles really complement each other pretty well. However, the second show that starts with 'The Harder They Come' (which is the same material as on 'Live at the Channel Club') has Thunders completely out of it. By this point Johnny's wife has just left him, and, true to form, he immedietly started self destructing. So he spends half of these last 5 tracks berating the audience between and during the songs."

MICK FARREN (R.I.P.) - Vampires Stole My Lunch Money

MICK FARREN  Vampires Stole My Lunch Money  lp/cd  1978/2008

Trouble coming everyday / Half price drinks / I don't want to go this way / I want to drink* / Son of a millionaire / Zombie line* / Bela Lugosi / People call you crazy* / Fast Eddie / Let me in, damn you* / (I know from) Self destruction / Drunk in the morning.
Produced by Larry Wallis.

Mick Farren: lead vocals / Larry Wallis : guitars, backing vocals / Andy Colquhoun : bass, backing vocals / Wilko Johnson : guitar on* / Alan Powell : drums / Chrissie Hynde, Sonja Kristina, Maria, R2D2 & Susie : backing vocals / Will Stallybrass : harmonica / Chas Heatherington : the machine rented to the Pink Floyd(!) .

Mick Farren — journalist, science fiction novelist, author, singer, founding member of the (Social) Deviants and Pink Fairies, Motörhead songwriter — cut his first solo album with a nascent version of the Fairies immediately upon leaving the Deviants in 1969. After spending some years writing about, rather than making, music, he returned to that side in '77 with a four-song 7- inch on Stiff that has its moments but is hardly a milestone. The following year, however, the Englishman dived back into the deep end of rock with the harrowing "Vampires Stole My Lunch Money", showing the junior nihilists just how grim, serious and personal music could be. Released at the height of the punk wave but springing from a much deeper creative well, "Vampires Stole My Lunch Money" is Farren's solo masterwork. With musical assistance from Dr. Feelgood guitarist Wilko Johnson, Chrissie Hynde and others, he dishes out a harrowingly honest collection of songs about drinking, dissolution, depression, self-destruction and desperation. About as powerful as rock gets, this nakedly painful LP is most definitely not recommended to sissies, moralists and born-again Christians. TrouserPress

Mick Farren, lead singer for the Deviants, collapsed on stage last night (July 27) in London. He passed away shortly thereafter.
According to his Facebook page, Farren was making a rare live appearance with a new lineup of the Deviants for the Atomic Sunshine Festival at the Borderline Club in London when he collapsed on stage during his performance. He was later pronounced dead.

LONG SONG FOR ZELDA 

Je suis à la fenêtre 

Toi tu es dans la baignoire 

Tes pieds dépassent, je peux les voir 

Dans la glace de l’armoire 

Il y a ce disque idiot 

Qui est rayé au milieu 

Et; les tarots que je te tire 

Sur ton châle en camaïeu 

Il y a l’odeur d’encens 

Et les bougies ont fondu 

Tout est si vague 

Le fil des pensées s’est perdu 

Je ne sais même plus si je pense 

Je ne sais même plus si je pense 

Il y a une fille que j’ai aimée 

À la fin de la nuit 

J’étais à contempler les novas 

Les anneaux de Saturne 

Je veux dire… 

J’étais mon jean vide et mon blouson 

Qui flottait à un bâton d’os 

Les os friables de la came 

J’étais le singe du travelo 

Oui! J’étais vraiment lui 

Le cul rose sur le rebord du caniveau 

Le singe du travelo 

Et ce petit doigt noir 

Tu sais, qui caressait mon cul 

Comme je suis une plaie ouverte… 

Mon nez, je veux dire… 

Mon nez où s’engouffraient les autos 

Comme dans un tunnel… 

Mes narines avec leur tuyau d’échappement 

Des nuages d’héroïne 

Le cheval vapeur 

Horse Power, Horse Power 

À écouter un vieux jazz 

Devant un vieux bar 

Avec du papier Coltrane

Je veux dire, tu vois 

Dans les chiottes 

Quelque chose comme ça 

Et moi, devant 

Le cul dans le caniveau 

Et le flottement indécis 

D’un drapeau de trottoir 

Dont j’étais la hampe… 

Et des étoiles qui tournaient partout 

Tout autour de ma tête 

Ma cervelle de cave… 

Mes os friables qui un jour disparaîtraient aussi 

Dans l’eau du caniveau 

Avec mon reflet… 

Avec mon nez 

Mon nez brûlé reflété… 

Je suis celui qui a vu un bouledogue débouler 

Et qui bringuebalait tous les immeubles 

De la rue Delambre, derrière lui 

La laisse laissée trainer 

Que tu es beau bouledogue! 

Que j’aime ta couleur rouquine 

Wouah-Wouah 

Il a levé sa pine bleue pour pisser 

Wouah-Wouah-Wouah! 

Combien je t’aime 

Et au bout de la laisse, Zelda 

Un peu vieux, me fait-elle, votre procédé 

Détrompez-vous, 

C’est toujours efficace avec un chien 

Ce n’est pas à vous 

Que ce compliment était adressé 

Vous l’avez cru parce que vous êtes rousse aussi? 

C’est pour votre chien que mon cœur bat 

Hein! Non ,je veux dire 

Je disais ça comme ça 

Wouah-Wouah 

Les chiens Wouah, 

Les chiens Wouah dans la nuit 

La nuit Wouah 

Les chiens Wouah, et toi, et toi Wouah! 

Le jour se lève! I love you Zelda 

I love you Zelda 

Je chantais 

Je chantais avec le soleil, Zelda! 

Je suis à la fenêtre 

Toi tu es dans ma baignoire 

Tes pieds dépassent 

Je peux les voir dans la glace de l’armoire

YOU AM I - # 4 Record

YOU AM I  # 4 Record  CD  1998

CD 1: Junk / The Cream & The Crock / What I Don't Know 'Bout You / Fifteen / Top Of The Morn' & Slip Of The Day / Billy / Come Home Wit' Me / Heavy Heart / Rumble / Guys, Girls, Guitars / Plans / ... And Vandalism.

Produced by George Drakoulias

+ bonus CD 2 : Radio Settee (Live At Wireless): Live With Me / Looking For A Kiss / Berlin Chair / Heavy Heart / Junk / Billy / Trike / Fox On The Run / Mr. Milk.

You Am I: Tim Rogers: vocals, guitar / Andy Kent: bass / Russell Hopkinson: drums, percussion.

Centered around the prolific songwriting skills of singer/guitarist Tim Rogers, pop group You Am I is one of the most successful and internationally admired Australian bands of the '90s. At home, they've scored three number one albums, Sonic Youth and Soundgarden are counted among their admirers, and Silverchair even named themselves after a You Am I song. Their influences combine the Who, the Small Faces, the Jam, the Clash, and the Replacements.

It took a full year to appear -- old label Warner Bros. decided not to release this LP, after having sent advance CDs to press types, duhhhh -- but #4 Record is worth the wait. The even better news is that power trio You Am I finally makes some headway toward matching its vicious, chaotic live intensity. Yet they retain the gratifying, masterful blend of timeless pop/rock & roll styles that made their previous LP such an ultimately distinct pleasure. To start, the mid-period Replacements influence is readily detectable. Press reactions have tended more toward Jam comparisons, a brilliant band that singer/writer/guitarist Tim Rogers actually dislikes! But what he does rate is the bands the Jam were weaned on, the '60s Who and Small Faces, as well as the older black R&B/soul and crackling '50s rock & roll combos that inspired those British mods. Add in a decided flavor of Big Star -- the LP title must be a sop to Alex Chilton's early-'70s power pop marvel #1 Record -- and you have an LP that beguiles, teases, sweetens, and often throbs in popcraft. It also blasts in fits and starts of harsh edge, chops, infectious attitude, and, when it suits them, abandon. If these crackerjack Aussies are carrying on 30 years worth of heritage with intelligence and spit, then #4 Record is their Radio City to Hourly, Daily's #1 Record, their Setting Sons or Sound Affects to All Mod Cons, their Pleased to Meet Me to Tim. That is, it's more scattershot, more sprawling, less cohesive, and yet, somehow more surprising and doggedly unique. Like some of the above, more obtuse LPs, #4 Record requires more time to get the full joy of its lovely to cranky to happy to sorrowful to explosive twists and turns, but the payoff is big. Source

This is the 2 cd version which contains a radio session recorded live at Wireless including covers of The New York Dolls (Looking For A Kiss), The Stones (Live With Me), Sweet (Fox On The Run) etc

THE FLAMIN' GROOVIES - Now & Jumpin' In The Night (Japanese Edition)

THE FLAMIN' GROOVIES  Now & Jumpin' In The Night CD Japanese Edition 1997

In 1997 Warner Japan released "Now" [WPCR-1708] and "Jumpin' In the Night" [WPCR-1709] in cd format.

The Flamin' Groovies are an American rock music band, whose peak was in the 1960s and 1970s. They began in San Francisco in 1965, founded by Ron Greco, Cyril Jordan and Roy Loney.They are perhaps best known for their song "Shake Some Action", which was later featured in the 1995 movie Clueless. They are also well known for their song "Whiskey Woman" which was featured in Joe Sexton's part of Videograss' film The Darkside (2012). The group have been called one of the forerunners of punk rock, and they also had a major influence on the power pop genre.

Their first album, 1969's "Supersnazz", featured Jordan (guitar, vocals), Loney (guitar, vocals), George Alexander (bass, harmonica, vocals), Tim Lynch (guitar, harmonica, vocals) and Danny Mihm (drums). It contained both re-creations of 1950s rock and roll and more melodic songs that anticipated the power pop movement of the 1970s—a genre to which the Flamin' Groovies would eventually contribute significant work. They then released their second album, 1970's "Flamingo". "Teenage Head" was released in 1971 and is listed in the 2006 book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.

In 1971, Loney left the band and was replaced by singer and guitarist Chris Wilson, who, along with Jordan, began to move the group in a more overtly power-pop direction. Between 1971 and 1976, very little was heard of the group except their 1972 anti-drug song "Slow Death" (co-written by Loney). In 1976, they teamed up with British producer Dave Edmunds, and recorded Shake Some Action.

In 1979, Roy Loney formed the Phantom Movers featuring original Groovies drummer Danny Mihm, former Groovie James Ferrell (guitar), as well as Larry Lea (guitar) and Maurice Tani (bass). The band released a number of well-received albums as well as a greatest hits CD ("A Hundred Miles an Hour 1978-1989" on the Raven label out of Australia). The Phantom Movers (Roy, Larry, and Maurice) continue to play currently, with the addition of John Moremen on drums.

After some re-recordings of their older material featuring only Jordan and Alexander from the original band, the Groovies disbanded in 1992.

The Flamin' Groovies headlined the Azkena rock festival in Mendizabala, Spain, on September 11, 2004. In 2005, Jordan founded a new band, Magic Christian who recorded two solid albums.

In 2008, Loney and Jordan reunited and embarked on a brief tour, backed by members of The A-Bones and Yo La Tengo.

Another larger-scale reunion appears on the recent Chris Wilson album "Love Over Money" (2010). Roy Loney, George Alexander, James Ferrell and Mike Wilhelm all appear on the CD, as does Procol Harum’s keyboard legend Matthew Fisher and Barracudas guitarist Robin Wills. The album is available on the French Rock Paradise label.

In 2013, the Jordan/Wilson/Alexander line-up played live for the first time since 1981 in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth as part of the Hoodoo Gurus' invitational Dig It Up. They also played a series of sold-out shows in Japan. Their show in San Francisco, at The Elbo Room on May 4, sold out in less than 24 hours. They are currently touring, with the addition of Victor Penalosa on drums. Source

THE FLAMIN' GROOVIES - Jumpin' In The Night (DBK Work)

THE FLAMIN' GROOVIES  Jumpin' In The Night  CD 2005

Jumpin' In The Night / Next One Crying / First Plane Home / In The U.S.A. / Down Down Down / Yes I Am / Werewolves Of London / It Won't Be Wrong / Please Please Me / Tell Me Again / Absolutely Sweet Marie / 5D / Lady Friend.
Produced By Cyril Jordan & Roger Bechirian.
Remastered By Gary Hobish.
The Flamin' Groovies:  Cyril Jordan: guitar, vocals / Chris Wilson: guitar, vocals / Georges Alexander : bass / Mike Wilhelm: guitar / David Wright: drums.

The third and last of the Flamin' Groovies late-'70s albums for Sire, Jumpin' in the Night storms out of the gate with the title song, a top-shelf rocker that brings the muscle of the Flamingo-era lineup of the Groovies to the more style-conscious British Invasion sonics of Cyril Jordan's version. Though Jumpin' in the Night never rocks that hard or that well again, it does sound decidedly tighter and tougher than 1978's Flamin' Groovies Now, and guitarist Mike Wilhelm, a new addition to the Now lineup, is much better integrated into their wall of guitars, with the Groovies sounding more solid than they did a year before. But while Jumpin' in the Night finds the Flamin' Groovies sounding better than ever, the material unfortunately lets them down. It's no wonder why the Flamin' Groovies loved the Byrds -- both were American bands who fell in love with the sounds of British rock and crafted their own variation on the style -- but three Byrds covers on this album is about two too many (especially given how clunky David Wright's drumming sounds on "5D"), and though having the Groovies tackle "Absolutely Sweet Marie" and "Please Please Me" sounds good on paper, the audible results are a bit underwhelming. (On the other hand, their cover of "Werewolves of London" is better than anyone had a right to expect.) The production and engineering by Roger Bechirian is crisp and flattering to the guitars, but lacks the resonance of Dave Edmunds' more layered approach on Shake Some Action and Now. A great band, the Flamin' Groovies often seemed to have a hard time reconciling their best qualities with the record-making process, and Jumpin' in the Night is probably the best example of this dilemma, though it has more than enough worthwhile moments to compensate.

The Flamin' Groovies: Cyril Jordan: guitar, vocals / Chris Wilson: guitar, vocals / Georges Alexander : bass / Mike Wilhelm: guitar / David Wright: drums.

While it took a long and torturous five years for the Flamin' Groovies to find their way back to an American record deal with Shake Some Action, a year and a half later the band had a follow-up ready, and while 1978's Flamin' Groovies Now isn't quite as cohesive as the album that preceded it, in many respects the band sounds at once tighter and more relaxed, with some time on the road firming up the rhythm section while giving the songs a bit more room to swing (which wasn't one of the strong suits of the British Invasion bands that provided their aural template). The band lost guitarist James Ferrell during the post-Shake Some Action tour, but former Charlatans picker Mike Wilhelm proved to be a more than simpatico replacement on these sessions, and while leader Cyril Jordan didn't come up with another new song as transcendent as "Shake Some Action," "All I Wanted" comes pretty close. But it's significant that most of the songs on Flamin' Groovies Now are covers, and while all of them are played with love, enthusiasm, and the right period flair (especially the Beatles' "There's a Place," Paul Revere & the Raiders' "Ups and Downs," and "Move It," an early U.K. hit for Cliff Richard), they give the album a feeling of being padded, and just because covering the Rolling Stones rarity "Blue Turns to Grey" was a good idea didn't mean the Flamin' Groovies had any business tackling "Paint It Black." All in all, Flamin' Groovies Now is a terrific-sounding record that captures a fine band when it was in great form, but it also makes clear that the gremlins that often dogged the Groovies in the studio (namely their inability to make a 100 percent satisfying album) hadn't gone away.

Flamin' Groovies fans can be forgiven if they greeted At Full Speed: Complete Sire Recordings with slightly less than the whole-heartedly enthusiastic reception it deserved when this double-disc set from Rhino UK appeared late in the summer of 2006. Just a few months prior, DBK Works boxed up the three expanded reissues of the Groovies' Sire records that they had released over the course of 2005, covering the same territory in nearly the same degree of completion as this set -- and since only 1976's Shake Some Action had been out on disc before, with 1978's Flamin' Groovies Now and 1979's Jumpin' in the Night making their CD debut from DBK, it's easy to assume that those hardcore fans already picked up the discs not just before the Rhino UK set, but before DBK's similarly titled Bust Out at Full Speed: The Sire Years hit the shelves, either. But for those faithful few who somehow held out in picking up the DBK issues -- or for those faithful few who just had to have everything the Groovies did (and everybody knows that accounts for a good chunk of their fan base) -- At Full Speed: Complete Sire Recordings is the set to get. Not only is it sleeker at two discs compared to the DBK three, it also contains more recordings: a handful of unreleased cuts that did not make it to the previous set. And for those who have yet to be introduced to the wonder of the Groovies at Sire, this is surely essential: the perfect cross between British Invasion pop, old-time rock & roll, nervy new wave style and garage rock spirit.
