70s Mayhem...

[Lee de Parade]

...mayhem or garage or grungy sounds made by outcasts or whatever.

Recently, a friend of mine on FB (who is also is a member of this forum and shall remain nameless until he chooses to undisclosed himself) shared a sound clip from youtube with a Dallas band called A New Hi. The platter was from 71 and sported some cool groovy garagey sounds with some farfisa and souly vocals. Lovely.

I replied with a question (to the one that shall remain nameless until he chooses otherwise) if he knew of any comps out there that focuses on this side of the garage palette.
Yet another person whose name I shall not reveal who I guess I think I might know who he is tipped me off about Michigan Meltdown.
Cool enough! (Sadly, that fucker is only out on vinyl and, as I revealed in another thread on this here fine forum, I gave my turntable away to my old man.)

What am I on about? I don't know! I guess..I'd like to put all these bad puppies next to each other and pet them.

Like, Magi on Pebbles 5. A highly influential comp otherwise completely flawless except for this turd in the punchbowl. Or is it a turd? Hmm, no - it is just mal placé! It is rather swinging track, that 'un!
Or Feel It, by It's All Meat! That is some pretty punishing sounds! Or the first three tracks that opens Brain Shadows Vol. 1 - scary shit!
Or Spontaneous Generation's Up In My Mind - devestating..
Or Pretty's Mustache In Your Face! That one gives me chills up and down my spine from my mind to my behind!

I've been psycho-ramblin about this before, I think. Now I am at it again.
So if you please - what is your favorite crushing sounds from the first part of the '70s?
And please up some mp3s and pics so I can go make a vinyl comp of the lot. I already got a name for it - Turds In The Punchbowl.

Spontaneous Generation "up In My Mind" is from late 1968.

Not 100% sure it will fit the bill for you but the Revells "I feel lonely" from Jackson, TN is pretty great. I don't have a way of loading it to you but someone recently sold one with a soundclip here.

I can't imagine being without at least one turntable. I don't know enough obscure early '70s to recommend anything assuming you already have Stooges, Groovies, Heartbreakers, Alice Cooper, Dolls and the other usual suspects.

Dang! I guess the ol' port did a number on my brain. But it sure is sweet to stand corrected by you again, MTM.

Yay! I think I have that somewhere in my files! I'm gonna give it a spin as soon as I wake up for real.
And the soundclips and pics was just me horsin around. I won't make a comp anytime soon.

Thanks Becca!
Life is livable without a turntable but it is not as well-sounding.

The unnamed one sez: You gave away your turntable? Tough luck buddy.

 

[Lee de Parade]

Ech, I get one back one day. I don't own a tv either. All I got is this huge dick of mine..

Here is one of my favourite 70s 45s

If you don't mind it being french... Rotomagus - Fightin' cock (c1971)

[Lee de Parade]

Oh, ROTOMAGUS! Love them! I'm not home right now, but you just wait till I uh..get..home. Yes.

 

[Mr.Segment]

Do you mean stuff like this?

I've been working on collecting similair 45s for a short while now. Damn hard to get, but I don't mind sharing via a forum comp of sorts once I get enough of the little buggers.

Got the Sky Blue Pink on Right Now a week'ish ago and it was, uh, primitive.

 

[depravedskippy66]

'70s Mayhem? The Electric Eels - 'Nuff said!

 

[Lee de Parade]

And don't forget Debris'!

Mr. Segment was pretty spot on the money. Lovely track! Pretty insane. It is all over the place, waiting to fall apart any second. Somehow the brothers pulled it through though..

There was a heavy rock fan who sometimes posted on the old forum. "Hammertime" or something like this.
He runs a cool site with early hard rock 45s. There's a lot of typical hard rock stuff, but some of it is 100% of what you're looking for, I'm sure. There were some tracks I found in that particular style, but unfortunately I didn't write down the names. The site has a rather large archive...

Good call on Debris. And don't forget Figures of Light.

Chris Stigliano, via Blog2Comm, has written about a band called Titfield Thunderbolt; apparently some sort of archival release is forthcoming, would could be pretty tasty indeed.

 

[Lee de Parade]

Slowness: Cool sounds! Man, I looove hippie intruments - I don't care what they say!

Skippy: Yeah and Simply Saucer and Creme Soda. Or The Clap, for that matter. But that is almost (I'm on thin ice here..) proto-punkish. That is almost 1st Gen Punk.

Axel: wow, thank you! That is just what I was looking for - I think!

Mister Doctor Segment: Uff, set 'em up! :)

 

[Laurent Bigot]

and of course Jack Ruby! (sorry for the self promo... not)

 

[mansson66]

The double LP w/ Rocket From The Tombs is one of my absolute faves
