Florida Rocks Again! #39

Hosts: Mal Thursday and Jeff Lemlich

Jeff’s Moody Monsters

Mal Thursday is joined by Florida Rocks Again! music guru Jeff Lemlich to bring you some of the finest examples of downbeat teen balladry to emerge from Florida in the mid-’60s. A perfect complement to a long, hot summer’s day, this double-wide episode is crammed with adolescent angst, minor chord misery, and woebegone rarities. Featuring such ace mid-’60s combos as the Shaggs, Painted Faces, We The People, the Tropics, and the Nightcrawlers (you can get Cracking the Egg: The Untold Story of the Nightcrawlers on DVD, as well as Jeff’s book, Savage Lost: Florida Garage Bands, the ’60s and Beyond at the Florida Rocks Again! Online Superstore). Produced by JM Dobies and Jeff Lemlich in Living Monophonic Sound.

Hanging on for Mercy #27

Host: Dixiegrrl

Ruby Red Mercy!

Giddy from birthday joy, Gretchen cuddles up with the Cattanooga Cats to celebrate the ruby anniversary of her birth… She skitters dangerously close to the edge of acceptable garage punkness with Penelope Houston, Barbara Manning, and Kelly Hogan accompanied by the venerable Greg Smalley… someday they’ll write a book about that boy, tragic tale that he was… first “Walk a Mile” with Holly Golightly and stroll along that “Dixie Peach Promenade” with Skip Spence, that legendary axeman… and if ya wanna get hot, go sit on the heater! Play loud if you wanna make sure you ain’t no zero on the rock-o-meter! Cha cha cha!
