Hey Plague when are we gonna see "The Plague's guide to DIY records from a garage fanatic perspective" or a top 100 list or something. I think it would be interesting.

I wouldn't want to start a new thread but as long as people are mentioning their blogs, I'll do it here. The Stingrays, two live tracks from 1983. Scroll down in the first post and you'll find them.

thanks for those songs John.
this is a pretty funny clip of the Sting-Rays, i doubt many of the crowd had heard the original Emperors `I Want My Woman. this band seemed more into their garage than other psychobily bands of which Alec Paloa(Ace Records) was a member.

Stingrays were never pure psychobilly. The gig those songs were from included 7 or 8 garage covers and only 2 or 3 rockabilly covers. It was early so they only had about 8 original songs, and those came out sounding more punk. But because of the quiffs and the stand-up bass, well.... WHen I first saw them I thought they sounded exactly like the Clash playing the Cramps' set list using the Stray Cats' instruments...

I'll post more tomorrow. It's late...I'm on allergy meds and Spammy needs his beauty sleep.
(Quite frankly, he needs a beauty coma, after getting fat lips from an allergic reaction...oh, he's a pretty boy, alright!)

You know, Plague...I really don't know who's behind the comps. I found them somewhere on Soulseek. They came with original sleeves of the EPs and 7"s, but no actual "Compilation Album" art.
So I decided to take matters into my own hands and create them myself.
Thanks for the good words to my (otherwise dubious) artistic abilities.
Yeah, only my upper lip resembles Ms. Love. Hopefully by the end of the week, I'll have Kurt's lips again.
