Courtesy of Rockalain where you can hear some great Hillbilly, Rockabilly, Rock and Roll and more.
This cover brings to mind those little propeller submarines I played with as a kid in the bathtub. I think I bought them from the back of a comic book or something.
#4 in a cool series of jazz compilations put out by the Dawn label. All with great covers, this is the best though. What style! The classic Lambretta, the babe, the tight pants and low cut top! The music is equally good and deserving of the hip sleeve. The roster includes Paul Quinichette, Nat Pierce, Gene Roland, Ed Thigpen and Earl May.
“She’s a Bad Motorcycle” by The Risers. Imperial Records.
On a personal note, my buddy Scott provided me with the unique opportunity to DJ the opening party of The Motorcycle Show at the Guggenheim Museum a few years ago. Of course I played only “biker” music, but I also set myself up behind a display of covers like this one for maximum effect. Dennis Hopper was there, the place was packed and the music was loud.
Outsider musical hero Ron Schmeck. “Easy Living The American Way” featuring my personal favorite “I’m Proud to Own a Mobile Home”. Maybe some day I really will.
My new favorite car the Ford Corsair (1963 – 1970)
This ep was issued in Hong Kong for release in South East Asia in the mid-sixties. Guitar instrumentals as played by The Corsairs, one of the top Hong Kong bands showcasing the “beat” sound of the time around Asia.
