Saturday Matinee – Country Dick Montana Tribute, The Blasters, Levi & The Rockats, The Reverend Horton Heat, Johnny Carroll & His Hot Rocks
Nice tribute to the late Country Dick Montana at The Belly Up in Solana Beach, CA, November 2010. From the Utoobage:
Dave Alvin sings the song “Beat Generation“, and is joined by members of the Beat Farmers, Candy Kane, Peter Case, Mojo Nixon, Cindy Lee Berryhill, and others…
Here’s Dave Alvin & The Blasters with “Marie Marie.” I saw them at the Whiskey in 1980.
Another band from the punkabilly scene: Levi & The Rockats on the Mike Douglas Show, 1979. (That hepcat on bass is hilarious.)
Reverend Horton Heat’s “Psychobilly Freakout.” [Don’t watch if you’re epileptic…]
Johnny Carroll & His Hot Rocks “Rockin’ Maybelle” is the real deal from about 1957.
Too hot to handle and too cold to hold. Those should keep you jumpin’ jivin’ and wailin’ for a while. See you back here tomorrow.

WTF is a Fire Duck?
Yep. That’s a WTF Duck Sled for sure, and it’s a bonafide Babe Magnet. I want a fleet of ’em. [More photos here.]
Illuminated Marbles
Bunkarina took that photo 4 July 2011. I like it.
The kid’s name is Finnley. He was amused that Bunkarina was lurking underneath the playground slide.

Saturday Matinee – The Starwars Zone, Keith Richards, Chuck Berry, Johnny Johnson, Silvan Zingg & Johnny Winter
[Found here.]
Poor Keith. Just couldn’t follow directions. Johnny Johnson‘s blank stares are great.
Here’s Johnny Johnson’s version of Meade Lux Lewis‘ “Honky Tonk Train Blues.”
Here I was thinking that Pinetop Smith wrote HTTB, and the wiki proved me wrong just in time. Unfortunately there are no videos of Pinetop Smith in action, but Silvan Zingg is awesome. From Switzerland, here’s “Pinetop’s Boogie Woogie.”
Now how to wrap this up…
Yep, Johnny Winter‘s “Mojo Boogie” does it. Have a great weekend, folks and be back here for more fun tomorrow.
