Fanatics, Space IS the place! It is tonight at least. A bit of a concept going on here. All of our tracks tonight deal in some way with space, either by content or title. I have wanted to do this show for awhile. I started working on this one weeks ago. I nailed down the final draft earlier in the week and it was done. One of the interesting tracks tonight is from Suicide. An alternate version of Frankie Teardrop! I have had this one tape for many years now but never wanted to play it because Suicide had not released it officially and I didn’t want talk out of class as they say. Finally, this track came out on a 10” on Blast First and for a very limited time, on a promo CD. That’s what we’re listening to tonight. So cool to finally be able to play this one. There’s more unreleased tracks from the first album but I will wait until the band releases them first before I play it. I know we are playing The Cramps two times in two consecutive broadcasts but I didn’t think you would mind. I don’t know if we have ever played anything from Coltrane’s Interstellar Space album. It’s a great one. I would like to know what Coltrane had on his mind when he went into these sessions. It’s one of his more interesting albums. Coltrane is one of those artists—you need to hear it all at least once. The men from Buck Gooter said they sent their new album but I have not had the chance to go through the mail yet. When I get their new on logged and listened to, I will bring in a track. I always look forward to new Goot and am very glad they are so prolific.
Primary Colours but I am finding myself heading towards the Space jams, hence tonight’s show as well as longer pieces in general. I have been checking a lot of Amon Duul, Kawabata Makoto, Acid Mothers Temple, Ash Ra Tempel. As well, I have been checking out a lot of Weasel Walter’s different projects and all kinds of interesting stuff I have been downloading from the Mutant Sounds site.
