[Lee de Parade]

And are you up to you knees in crap garage?

Check out my blog! It is for you! I shall post the essential, first layer garage punk that we don't really discuss here since we've heard it about 1,000 times.

Thanks for reminding myself why I´m doing this. It is necessary sometimes. And I wish more newbies would post on this forum. 95% of us do not bite.

Thanks Mister!

I had to check out the site, and I never made it past the first song. Why? Cause it's too good! I don't think that any other songs on the site can match "To Find Out"!

 

[Lee de Parade]

Hahahaha!

 

[Sancho Panza]

But really, the track is too much. I'm having a hard time puting my finger on what it is that makes the track. All I know is that if I ever find my girl cheating on me, I want this song blasting out of the speakers as I run out (crying....)

 

[Lee de Parade]

It is truly Deep Garage. Something for a Zen Master to understand and meditate upon.

very enjoyable foray into the primordial hullabaloo, nice selection of tracks Lee.

Thanks Tom!

When I'm making this blog I can't help to think "who'll read this stuff? who'll listen to this shit?"
Since I'm an old geezer now and shy away from all things teen, it's kinda hard to guess.

Imma just gonna love the crud I love and go down with the ship whether someone knows it or not.
I will blog til some kid mails me.

I still remember the first time I heard 'To Find Out'. The cat panicked and ran out of the room with ears glued back after a few bars of The Keggs. It was 1985. 1985 is further back in time now than 1966 was in 1985. Feels weird. In any case: music that make cats take notice has something extra going on.

Only a few weekends ago, I went to a "local" music event, started talking to a girl for an hour, only to then get totally cock blocked by her boyfriend who came on the scene an hour later, so in my head, I was thinking 'what the hell is this all about?'.... the guy looked like a cheese-ball fag, I felt totally kicked in the teeth.

During my drive home in the rain, I had a 'Back From The Grave' cd in my car... no word of a lie, 'To Find Out' was played on repeat until I got home, it was also played FULL BLAST.... at one point, in my anger, I had the windows down, despite the slight rain, at midnight driving through this town, full of squares with The Keggs at full blast, getting myself into the primordial primitive state of upset and frustration.


believe it or not, it helped me big time.


I did the same with The Rogues - The Next Guy, but instead of Frustration, I was in tears for the whole journey.

 

[Lee de Parade]

Hahahaaa!!

 

[Sancho Panza]

HAHA! (laughed so hard that I fell out of my chair)

 

[paul messis]

Guys... that's not even the worst story.

seriously, this music relates to my life.... as Lee said above, it's got a zen-like quality, in my own personal life, my world seems to have taken the shape of these records and has done for years, it's weird for sure, it's like by loving and listening to 60s garage sounds it's taken hold of my own life and the records are now MY LIFE.

I mean if Ophan Boy was real... that guys me, seriously!!!

 

[Lee de Parade]

Ugh, tough life brother. Call me when yer in town n I'll buy you a beer. Might even set you up with a chick.

BTW, if anyone like me to put a link on my blog to something that has anything with what my blog is about, feel free to ask me.

 

[paul messis]

haha... I've had enough of people setting me up with chicks, everyone sets me up with vampires.... I'll just enjoy freedom, before any other girls decide to turn high class on my ass.

"To Find Out" sums up every guys life on G45.

 

[Sancho Panza]

Got past "To Find Out" and thougt that I would start from the top to see what new songs you have added. Didn't get past "Optical Sound". Hate your site.

"To Find Out" sums up every guys life on G45.

That´s a pretty bold statement. Good luck to you though!
