Steve Darbishire - I Do Know Poison Ivy Lovers 2022-01-22 | This recording is totally out of its time, it is from 1966 and was published by the Decca label. The theme in question is quite close to the craziest and wildest rockabilly of the 50's. Steve Darbishire & The Yum Yum Band only recorded 5 singles, between '65 and '67. Their albums contain touches of psychedelia mixed with Elvis influences. Pete Dello, who would later be in Honeybus, composed many of the group's songs, and was a member of the band until its dissolution.Artist: Steve Darbishire Album: SingleSong: I Do Know Record company: Decca Record Release date: 1966https://poisonivylovers.com...
Carl Perkins - Lonely Heart ( Demo with femenine chords) Poison Ivy Lovers 2021-12-17 | From 1963, young British Rock & Roll artists such as The Beatles, The Searchers, The Swinging Blue Jeans, Les Curtis & The All Stars or King Size Taylor, to name some of the most relevant, vindicated the great American artists , which originally created Rock & Roll, and which in some cases, such as Carl Perkins, had been forgotten in their country of origin. Carl Perkins was not one of the best known American artists on the old continent, until these groups began to include his songs in their repertoires. This resulted in these great figures of early Rock & Roll being able to tour the United Kingdom and part of Europe. Carl Perkins specifically, made his first tour of Great Britain in 1964 with Chuck Berry, in fact the English promoter wanted Gene Vincent, who was quite famous in Great Britain and had already toured there before, but it could not be and at final hired Carl Perkins. Carl was not at all convinced of this tour, because he thought it would not be successful, but Chuck Berry explained that in Europe they were true idols of youth and that they awaited them with open arms. From May 9, 1964 to November 22 of that same year, Carl Perkins made a successful tour of the UK. In this tour, Perkins had two English bands as a backing group, in the first 24 dates of the tour he was backed by The Nashville Teens and in the next 30 by The Quotations. Perkins also passed through the BBC offering a live show and an interview. The tour was a resounding success and after his last concert on the tour, Perkins was invited to a private party at the home of singer Alma Cogan, where he sat on the floor, shared stories, played guitar and sang surrounded by The Beatles. Ringo Starr asked if he could record "Honey Don't" and Perkins replied, "Sure man, go ahead and do it." The Beatles not only recorded "Honey Don't", they also covered "Matchbox" and "Everybody's Trying to Be My Baby", previously in 1963 they had already recorded two versions of "Glad All Over". As a culmination of his stay in the UK, Carl Perkins left us a magnificent single for the Brunswick label with the songs "Big Bad Blues" and "Lonely Heart". In this single, Carl Perkins is accompanied by the British The Nashville Teens and it shows the good harmony he achieved with the British groups, the two songs are magnificent. The theme of this clip is a very different demo from the song that would later be published, the rhythm is frenetic and more wild with female voices in the backing vocals and a different guitar solo, I don't know which of the two I like better.Juanmy "The Hunter"

NRBQ - Stomp Poison Ivy Lovers 2021-10-13 | NRBQ met Slim Harpo in New Jersey in 1968, the bluesman loved the group and organized a concert in New York, in a place called The Scene, the commotion that was generated from this performance made musicians like Jimmy Hendrix and Jimmy Page were among the public of their first shows, both declared themselves fans of the band, this first performance also led them to obtain a contract with the Columbia label, so it would be their first LP. In 1969 the band debuted with their self-titled LP, on this album they made it very clear what their influences were, the LP opened its A-side with Eddie Cochran's “C'mon Everybody”, on this album we can find versions of Sun Ra, Bruce Channel , Carla Bley and Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, as well as her own songs that are now classics in her repertoire, such as "Stomp", "You Can't Hide" or "Mama Get Down Those Rock And Roll Shoes". The sales were moderate without great commercial repercussion, but the band began to have some unconditional fans, among which were many celebrities from the world of music, this caused a legend to be forged around them as a cult band. Music critics didn't quite understand the group's musical perspective, they didn't understand that scruffy hippie-looking dudes were claiming '50s Rockabilly,' 30s Jazz standards or '60s Pop, all played. with the virtuosity of jazz musicians, this caused critics to call them an unclassifiable band incapable of focusing on one genre and following a style; "Hippies don't like Rockabilly and greasers don't like long hair," you could read in a magazine of the time. The world was not ready for them in the early 70s!Artist: NRBQAlbum: NRBQSong: StompRecord company: ColumbiaRecord Release date:1969https://poisonivylovers.com...
NRBQ - Blues Stay away form me Poison Ivy Lovers 2021-10-11 | Why do I adore NRBQ and think they are one of the best Rock & Roll bands of all time? Well, because they are able to play any style of American music, Jazz, Doo Wop, Rockabilly, 60's Pop, Frat Rock, Country & Western, Soul, R&B, etc ... Any version of a classic of American music that belongs to In the 30's, 40's, 50's or 60's it can pass through your hands and become something personal and magnificent, without losing its essence. Because in their albums you can find influences from Eddie Cochran, Big Joe Turner, Sun Ra, Lovin 'Spoonful, The Beach Boys, The Everly Brothers, The Beatles, The Shaggs, Thelonius Monk, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, The Turtles, The Coasters, 60's girls groups, Surf music, New Orleans sound, Harry Nilsson and many more and everything takes on a coherence that very few groups would achieve. Because they recorded albums with legends like Skeeter Davis or Carl Perkins. Because Link and Doug Wray gave them backing vocals on their song "Get a Grip." Because they are one of the favorite bands of Dave Edmunds, Paul McCartney, Eddie Angel, Elvis Costello, Greg Townson, Carlene Carter, Keith Richard, Bonnie Raitt, Robyn Hitchcock, Dan Baird, Hendrik Röver, The Young Fresh Fellows, Earl Palmer, John Sebastian, Skeeter Davis or Carl Perkins, and if musicians like these adore them, they will be right. And last but not least, because any song performed by them, such as this version of The Delmore Brothers, makes my day and gives me an incredible good vibes. Groups like, The Skeletons, The Morells, Ben Vaughn, Webb Wilder, Southern Culture On The Skids, Marshall Crenshaw, The Del Lords, Los Lobos or NRBQ are the sacred trinity of American Rock & Roll, groups that from the tradition of Rock & Roll Roll and Pop do what they really want, without distorting any genre.Artist: NRBQAlbum: WorkshopSong: Blues Stay away form meRecord company: Kama SutraRecord Release date:1973https://poisonivylovers.com...

Commander Cody - Shout Bamalama Poison Ivy Lovers 2021-09-27 | George Frayne, also known as Commander Cody, has taken off his ship bound for another planet, never to return. Frayne, singer and pianist, founded his band Commander Cody And His Lost Planet Airmen in 1967, these were years when Psychedelia and Progressive Rock reigned among young Americans. Commander Cody vindicated the music of American roots like Western Swing, Cajun, Honky Tonk, Country Rock, etc; But the most interesting thing is that at the same time that they recreated Country music classics and their own compositions in their repertoire there were R&B, Boogie, Doo Wop, Rockabilly and 50's Rock & Roll, all in equal parts, this was not surprising since the band had participated in some of his last Gene Vincent albums. In the early 70's the band was a breath of fresh air between so much brainy Rock with songs of more than 10 minutes, the Commander Cody were a quite popular band, with many performances throughout the USA, their headquarters since 1969 It was San Francisco, it had to be quite a sight to see them play “Git It” by Gene Vincent, “Midnight Shift by Buddy Holly or“ 20 Flight Rock ”by Eddie Cochran in front of a congregation of hippies. The Commander Cody shared a lot of things in common with groups like Flamin´ Groovies, CCR and NRBQ, all of them true defenders of the original Rock & Roll between the late 60's and early 70's, but although they shared musical roots Commander Cody were a special band, much more purist than any of the aforementioned groups and very respectful of vintage sounds, you just have to listen to the versions of "20 Flight Rock", "Hot Rod Lincoln" and "Midnight Shift" or the original song of the group "Lost In The Ozone ”, belonging to their first LP, to realize that Commander Cody's link to 50's Rock & Roll / Rockabilly Country and Western Swing is very serious, on their albums they achieved a sound that totally separated them from the bands of The 70's, as if all this were not enough, the magnificent covers of many of his albums, the work of Chris Frayne, George's brother, which refer to the comics and sci-fi novels of the 50's, in addition to e The very name of the group makes Commander Cody a group with a strong connection to the 1950s. Commander Cody got a few hits on the charts, like their cover of the song "Hot Rod Lincoln," and a well-deserved reputation as a live band. In 1976 the band was dissolved, but George Frayne continued his career with different formations that included some musicians from the original band, under different names such as; Commander Cody And His Modern Day Airmen, Commander Cody And His Western Airmen, Commander Cody Band, making excellent records and maintaining their reputation as a great bar band. The singer and guitarist Bill Kirchen, nicknamed "The Titan of The Telecaster", who among others has collaborated and accompanied Gene Vincent, Link Wray, Nick Lowe, Elvis Costello or Marti Brom is perhaps the member of the band that has achieved the most recognition. , with a flawless solo career.My first Commander Cody album, I bought it when I was 16 years old and it was his 1971 LP "Lost In The Ozone". From that moment on I have bought all the George Frayne albums, and his different Commander Cody bands, which have been within my grasp, becoming one of my musical heroes of the 70's.

Commander Cody vindicated the music of American roots like Western Swing, Cajun, Honky Tonk, Country Rock, etc; But the most interesting thing is that at the same time that they recreated Country music classics and their own compositions in their repertoire there were R&B, Boogie, Doo Wop, Rockabilly and 50's Rock & Roll, all in equal parts, this was not surprising since the band had participated in some of his last Gene Vincent albums. In the early 70's the band was a breath of fresh air between so much brainy Rock with songs of more than 10 minutes, the Commander Cody were a quite popular band, with many performances throughout the USA, their headquarters since 1969 It was San Francisco, it had to be quite a sight to see them play “Git It” by Gene Vincent, “Midnight Shift by Buddy Holly or“ 20 Flight Rock ”by Eddie Cochran in front of a congregation of hippies. The Commander Cody shared a lot of things in common with groups like Flamin´ Groovies, CCR and NRBQ, all of them true defenders of the original Rock & Roll between the late 60's and early 70's, but although they shared musical roots Commander Cody were a special band, much more purist than any of the aforementioned groups and very respectful of vintage sounds, you just have to listen to the versions of "20 Flight Rock", "Hot Rod Lincoln" and "Midnight Shift" or the original song of the group "Lost In The Ozone ”, belonging to their first LP, to realize that Commander Cody's link to 50's Rock & Roll / Rockabilly Country and Western Swing is very serious, on their albums they achieved a sound that totally separated them from the bands of The 70's, as if all this were not enough, the magnificent covers of many of his albums, the work of Chris Frayne, George's brother, which refer to the comics and sci-fi novels of the 50's, in addition to e The very name of the group makes Commander Cody a group with a strong connection to the 1950s. Commander Cody got a few hits on the charts, like their cover of the song "Hot Rod Lincoln," and a well-deserved reputation as a live band. In 1976 the band was dissolved, but George Frayne continued his career with different formations that included some musicians from the original band, under different names such as; Commander Cody And His Modern Day Airmen, Commander Cody And His Western Airmen, Commander Cody Band, making excellent records and maintaining their reputation as a great bar band. The singer and guitarist Bill Kirchen, nicknamed "The Titan of The Telecaster", who among others has collaborated and accompanied Gene Vincent, Link Wray, Nick Lowe, Elvis Costello or Marti Brom is perhaps the member of the band that has achieved the most recognition. , with a flawless solo career.My first Commander Cody album, I bought it when I was 16 years old and it was his 1971 LP "Lost In The Ozone". From that moment on I have bought all the George Frayne albums, and his different Commander Cody bands, which have been within my grasp, becoming one of my musical heroes of the 70's.

Danny & The Fat Boys (With The Clovers)- American Music Poison Ivy Lovers 2021-09-10 | Danny Gatton "the world's greatest unknown guitarist" was part of this group. Danny & The Fat Boys was a super band formed in the early 70's by Billy Hancock (bass and vocals), Danny Gatton (guitar) and Dave Elliott (drums). "American Music" was the title of his only album, and its title already makes it clear that it is a declaration of principles, said album appeared in 1975 and was released by the legendary Aladdin label. The album is a journey through all the great genres of American music, in which we find Rockabilly, Blues, Western Swing, Jazz or this great Doo Wop style song, which gives the LP its title, the song is original by Billy Hancock. and is backed by one of the best vocal groups of the 50s, The Clovers, the interpreters of "Love Potion Number 9". The song sounds like it belongs in the 1950s repertoire of The Clovers and the sound and production are excellent. If I remember correctly, I think it's Danny Gatton's only foray into Doo Wop.

Alan Cassaro - Why Dont You Ever Think Of My Poison Ivy Lovers 2021-09-08 | This song deserved number 1 on the charts! Alan Cassaro recorded this song in 1964 on the Integrity Records label, which was one of Cleveland's first independent labels. Created by Alan Cassaro and Bob Scherl. The Integrity Records label started with a couple of Alan Cassaro singles, and the song in this clip was one of them. Key garage groups from the 60s, like Missing Lynx or Human Benz (famous for their hit "Nobody But Me") went through Integrity Records. Human Benz's first LP includes several songs composed by Alan. The theme of this clip is composed by Alan Cassaro, and the accompanying band are Tom King & The Starfires, who soon after would change their name to The Outsiders and record their hit "Time Won't Let Me", a true garage classic. from the 60s. Alan is a wonderful person, very close and generous, he gave me a large part of his discography, and thanks to him I have been able to edit this clip. I take this opportunity to recommend his latest album, "Tangled in Time", a great work that you can listen to and buy on his bandcamp: alanleatherwood.bandcamp.com/album/tangled-in-timeArtist: Alan CassaroAlbum: single Song: Why Don't You Ever Think Of MyRecord company: IntegrityRecord Release date:1964https://poisonivylovers.com...
The Wagoneers - Live 2018 (Full concert) Poison Ivy Lovers 2021-09-07 | Between the late 70's and early 90's, in Texas, a series of very interesting groups appeared, The Leroi Brothers, Ted & The Talltops, The Tailgators, Rick Broussard's Two Hoot and a Holler, The Commandos or The Wagoneers were some of them. The latter were led by the great Mount Warden, and were directly influenced from the music of his countryman Buddy Holly and the Texan Honky Tonk. They only recorded 2 LP's, but what 2 albums!

I recommend you the first solo LP of Monte Warden from 1993, it is a marvel in the purest Bobby Fuller style. This video belongs to one of the periodic meetings of The Wagoneers that almost every year meets themselfs and celebrates some concerts to the delight of their fans and friends this belongs to the year 2018 in the Saxon Pub. The musicians who appear in this concert except for the drums, they are all original members of the group; Monte Warden on rhythm guitar and lead vocals, Brent Wilson lead guitar and vocals, Craig Allan Pettigrew bass and Massimo Palermo drums (Massimo was the drummer for Kelly Willis's band, on his early albums).
