......About using staight razors. Does any one use these besides real barbers? Ive owned a couple but have always sold them or traded them for fireworks and other non sense. Now i need to find me a real cool one with lotsa western style to it....
Last Thursday i played on a show called "Live From Cleveland". Its a weekly show every Thursday from 10pm to 11pm. It features a variety of local and national bands. I played a full set and some some records afterwards. You can catch the show on 91.1 cleveland or stream it on WRUW.org .
I havent really found anything that ive been looking for lately. The only records ive been wanting are on foreign labels and the shops around here rarley get em.....so i had to resort to some ebay purchases as well as some local finds.
Hank Mizell-Jungle Rock some raw ol rockabilly stomper! only 50 cents!
Movie Star Junkies- Melville..... cool, kinda Nick Cave meets a bloozy version of the cramps, and more twangy at the same time?!
CockSparrer- Best of.....Cool double Lp on TAANG Records....has all the early hits
Johnny Paycheck -Country Soul....not as good as his other Little Darlin labeled records, but decent enuff. i think its mostly , if not all covers on here.
Little Jimmy Dickens- The Collection.....all the hits and more. I think hes the oldest living member of the Grand Ole Opry. ......and hes from West Virginia. That means ill like him more just for that reason.
The Sadist has been in my top 5 favorite movies of all time. Im mostly into horror but this one somehow creeped in. I dont know if its just that im a huge fan of Arch Hall JR.(both musically and as an actor).
Three people are on there way to a baseball game when they start to have car troubles. They soon come across a roadside junkyard. So they pull in to see about getting their car fixed....and thats where the real trouble begins.
Theyre soon greeted by Charlie and Judy, who take them hostage. The film is supposedly loosely based on the Charles Starkweather story. To me this movie always seems so cool. Its has a bit of a cheesy feeling, but its way better played out than most movies of its time. I think the acting really fits into what you would feel fits the personality of a psychopath.It really gives a good feeling of the late 50's.
Its way better than some of Arch Hall Jr's other flicks, like EEGAH!. I guess it could fit in with early horror, but passes better as a thriller.
..........yet another ruthless biker flick! I still cant get enough of em either. Ive been wanting to see this for a couple of years. I first saw a trailer for it on the internet a while back and just found it about 2 weeks ago.
Anchor, and his gang of ruffians stop by a local desert diner, and what do they do? Terrorize, of course! The Satan's Sadists hold every one hostage, and it didnt get too out hand until they found out one of the victims was an off duty cop. Then the madness starts.....murder! Torture! More Kidnapping!
Two of the Victims escape into the desert after killing two of the Sadist's members. Afraid that the victims will get to the police they decide to trek on after them. Its pretty much the basic cat and mouse game for the rest of the film with another kidnapping of some campers.Wait, there is some suicide too. Cant forget that!
< The whole plan to catch the run away victims fails, as the gang breaks up, bike breakdowns and everyone turning on the leader of the pack.
The story wasnt played out that good, but had a good basic plot. It also had all the great early biker movie staples: fuzzy music, swastikas, chicks, nudity, and tons of blood.
its just as rockin as all their other releases. to me this is some great straight forward caveman garage. not too much punk and not too sissy. plus they wear bones around their necks! Wish they'd come to the states and stop by cleveland.
