Here is a mix of garage, surf, trash, exotica, freakbeat, soul and whatever else, with a kitschy b movie vibe running through it . . .It’s the kind of music you can hear at my favourite club here in Perth, Deville’s pad, which is not only kitted out in the coolest possible manner with go go dancers and regular good surf bands, but it has my favourite rule of any club so far – It’s over 25s only. Therefore it’s not full of the wank off students who would love it probably even more than I do. It’s apparently owned by the same people who run the famous ‘Las Vegas Grind’ night in Vegas, and the even more famous series of compilation records of the same name. I might be having my wedding reception there . . .
Anyway, here is the mix, I’ve called it ‘Voodoo beach party on the planet of the cannibal she-wolf’ in keeping with the Devilles pad aesthetic, hope you enjoy . . .

ReplyDeleteMassive Link Wray fan here, I paid stupid money a couple of years ago to get his entire Polydor back catalogue. had to get it imported from Germany. fuckin quality though.
good mix Tulley
Nice purchase steely, The guy is a legend, fully got me into the old instrumental surf rock type shit, him and man . . .or astroman?. Ive got a poster of him that says THINK LINK above it. Glad yous enjoy the mix . . .
ReplyDeleteBrilliant. In fact, was there any club nights that played stuff like that? Would be amazin.
ReplyDeleteHave you managed to get hold of bummer?
I think the closest you got in Glasgow was club noir, maybe some nights in sleazies . . .It's this kind of music every week at Devilles, the nights all have great names like 'horror monster beach party', 'satanic soul'and 'peek-a-boo revue'and it's interspersed with live bands, gogo and burlesque dancers, sword swallowers, magicians and all kinds of good shit. Last time I was there I saw a hammond organ surf band called 'Johnny popadom and the nan-breads' who played the best version of apache I've ever heard. I'm gutted cos Bob Log is playing the morra night and I canny go. Their cocktails rule anaw, all mad green rum hings with eyeballs floating in them and names like 'damnation libation'. Such a good club man.
ReplyDeleteaye and naw I hunvnae got a hold of 'bummer' but judging by that trailer sample it sounds amazin. . .although all those films sound great from the trailers . . .
