Stampede, The Scarlets (1959)
Not to be confused with the R&B vocal group of the same name, or the 1960s band from Denmark, or the glam-punk band from Australia, this was an instrumental group with Peter Antonio, (aka Pete Antell) and John Sanzone on guitars. Originally titled Dragstrip, Stampede was the theme to the movie Dragstrip Girl. From Billboard’s Music Popularity Charts Sep. 28 1959: “A fine instrumental blues with lots of echo. Side makes use of a downward progression of notes as one of its base themes. Plenty of raucous guitar and sax sound here (Atlantic, BMI).”

Saturday Matinee – Oz Noy (w/ Amitai Pariente), Ghalia Volt & Joanne Shaw Taylor

Oz Noy / guitar, Amitai Pariente / bass and (?)/ drums, with their version of Pee Wee Ellis’ The Chicken. The Utoobage lists the drummer as “Omer Punk” but that appears to be an alias.

Belgian guitarist (and occasional one-woman band) Ghalia Volt scored the number three slot on the Billboard Top Blues Albums Chart in 2019.

Joanne Shaw Taylor kicks the hoodoo loose all the way from the UK.

Batteries have been running low for the past few days, but I’ll be up at the crack of noon tomorrow. See you then.

The Toddlyrz – Live at The Grunge Garage

This has been circulating on the TwitX, so click it first:

I wanted to suss out the song, so I stripped the audio, slowed it down,  increased the volume, then pasted it back into the video. Sounds like two teens blasted out of their minds.

All the Parts: The Tetris Challenge

“When Zurich police published a photo of their mass of equipment laid out next to their patrol car on September 1 [2019] they had no idea that they were starting a viral challenge that would spread around the continent.

But for the past two weeks, police, ambulance and fire services have taken up what is being called the ‘Tetris Challenge’, highlighting the huge amount of equipment that they need to do their jobs – and how it fits into their often relatively small vehicles.”
