The debut track from The Flamin' Groovies' forthcoming studio album (out 2016 in celebration of their 50th anniversary) marks the first Cyril Jordan/Chris Wilson-penned song released since 1979!

Having completed successful tours of Japan, Australia, London and the U.S. over the last two years, THE FLAMIN' GROOVIES are hitting the road again in full force for their 2015 North American Tour. The Cyril Jordan, Chris Wilson,George Alexander line-up that rocked the UK, Europe and the US from 1971 - 1980 are back in action. With the addition of Victor Penalosa on drums, they continue to present their own unique and infectious style of rock n roll with such cult classics as "Slow Death," "Shake Some Action" and "You Tore Me Down."

Little Scratch--Captain Beefheart

An off-the-cuff spontaneous improvisation by Don Van Vliet recorded in Gary Lucas' apartment in the West Village of Manhattan the night after Don's second appearance on the David Letterman Show in July 1982.

Subjects deal with Reagan's then Secretary of the Interior James Watt... the shoddy/shady mysteries of the water works of NYC... alopecia ariata and Don's resemblance to a "de-jeweled Korla Pondit"...

and the song "Hearts Aren't That Casual"...

Zusammen mit Frank Zappa begann Captain Beefheart seine Musikkarriere schon Ende der 50er Jahre. Knapp zehn Jahre später folgten die ersten Alben. Im Intravinyl hörten wir zwei Stunden Musik des amerikanischen Künstlers. Die ganze Sendung zum Nachhören findest du hier:

Mylene Farmer - Fuck Them All (Sako Isoyan Remix)

Recorded for a CD produced for John Peel's 60th (?) birthday - the CD was organised by his then producer Louise and only one was ever made. From what I can remember the band took an age putting this track together because of their love of Peel and Beefheart. Both of whom it seems are now no longer with us.
