Monday, 6 April 2020Saturday Matinee – Germs and You, The First Edition, Gunhild Carling & Elvin Bishop
Saturday, 28 March 2020
Yankovic tweeted this out recently as a public service announcement.
The First Edition (featuring Kenny Rogers on bass & vocals) had their first big hit in 1968.
Gunhild Carling is amazing. According to Wiki, she plays trombone, bagpipes, trumpet, recorder, string instruments (such as banjo, ukulele and harp) and can also play three trumpets simultaneously.
So where do we go from here? Oh wait. I got it.
Haven’t heard that song since high school. Elvin Bishop had a few minor hits, but never got the recognition he deserved despite touring with the Allman Bros. (According to the comments on the Utoobage, I wasn’t the only one who thought the other guitar was Dickie Betts – it was Johnny ‘V’ Vernazza.)
Have a great weekend, folks. If you decide to go out, hoard me some, too.

In case that image puzzles some of you, it’s a reference to the greatest paranoia/spy TV show ever.

Saturday Matinee – Rats & Star, Oh!Sharels & Shelly Trip Realize
Saturday, 8 February 2020
Rats & Star (ラッツ&スター, Rattsu ando Sutā), formerly called Chanels, was a Japanese pop group that specialized in R&B & soul music… in blackface. Good stuff otherwise. {Had to update the vid. Original was sent to the YouTube gulag.]
Oh!Sharels is also Japanese and also do some nice retro covers, like this 1959 hit by the Flamingos (which was a cover of the song from 1934).
How ’bout some Japanese rockabilly? Not sure just what to make of Shelly (aka Shelly Trip Realize, aka Tinc), but the band rocks.
Have a great weekend or something. See you back here tomorrow for stuff.
