I guess by now you know the format; it’s a live show. This week’s (and a studio show is on the horizon) live outing sees me up at The Borderline to witness the death of Jackdaw4, a band whose main man Willie Dowling has been in such bands as The Grip, The Wildhearts, Honeycrack, Sugarplum Fairies and The Celebrity Squares. This also perversely sees the commercial release of the bands swansong CD ‘Dissecticide’, so no touring to support it then? The band played two sets, the first was a stripped down 6 song affair with part 2 being a full on, amped up, rock ‘n’ roll show.

Love That Episode Episode 46 – Tom Waits – The Heart of Saturday’s Rain Dogs

June 12th, 2013

LoveThatAlbumE46.mp3Episode 46 of Love That Album is here with two albums up for discussion.

Having previously been graced with the company of Doctor Zom, I’m now honoured to be joined by the other half of the Silva and Gold team, Pickle Loaf (aka Alex Ladd) to talk about two vastly different Tom Waits records – 1974’s “The Heart of Saturday Night” and 1985’s “Rain Dogs”. They have superficial similarities: both are second albums (Heart for Asylum records, and Dogs for Island), and both are vastly different to what Waits’ contemporaries in the pop music world were doing. We discuss the songwriting, Charles Bukowski, Bette Midler, truck drivers, and a myriad of other things.

Eric Reanimator’s “Album I Love” segment returns featuring a focus on Simon Stokes’ album “Honky”. More good listening for your earholes from Eric.

NOTE: you can also download a special bonus companion LTA episode featuring an interview I had with Barney Hoskyns, author of “Lowside of the Road – A Life of Tom Waits”. He knows his Waits and gives a fascinating insight into Waits’ work.

You can download both of the podcasts at iTunes by searching for “love that album”. You can stream or download it at “http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com”.

The podcasts can also be listened to via Stitcher Radio. Download the app from stitcher.com, and listen to any episode streaming over your Android or Apple device after searching for “love that album”.

Send me any feedback at rrrkitchen@yahoo.com.au (written or mp3 voicemail) or join the Facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbum and answer the REAL question regarding the meaning of life. Tom Waits – early jazzier recordings or later experimental recordings?

The Paranoid Squirrel ep 319

This week it’s the debut live gig from The Crunch who sport Sulo on vocals and guitar from The Diamond Dogs, Mick Geggus on guitar from The Cockney Rejects, on bass it’s Dave Tregunna, Lords of The New Church, Sham 69 and The Tango Pirates and original Clash drummer, Razzle’s immediate replacement in Hanoi Rocks Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Terry Chimes. The band are also joined by Idde Schultz on keyboards. The set is exactly what you’d expect. The bands aren’t trying to reinvent the wheel, more a case of the wheel reinventing them. The band’s debut album “Busy Making Noise” is out in October on Legal Records. So put a note in your diary.

The Paranoid Squirrel ep 318

All right fellow Squirrels. It’s Wednesday, the middle of the week, it’s a peak not a trough. And to help you down the other side speeding towards the weekend we have The Sewergrooves and The Nomads recorded at The Kaffe 44 in Stockholm on the 20th April. I think it is probably safe to say that without The Nomads there wouldn’t have been the surge of Scandinavian Garage Rock in the 90’s and 00’s. No Nomads = No Hellacopters or Hives. The Sewergrooves were caught up in this ground swell and were bolstered early on by having one Robban Eriksson in their ranks. Robban has long gone (loser) but the band still produce quality albums and are in the throws of recording a 10” follow up to 2011’s “Trouble Station”. Enjoy and as it’s midweek…..It’s about an hour and forty-five minutes long. So settle down and revel in the music that is The Sewergrooves and The Nomads.
