Renny G (host)
The Pearl Harbour album that is.

1:29 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
The band on this album comprised members of the Blockheads, The Rumour (Graham Parker's band), Dr. Feelgood & the Clash.

Haven't listened to this Pearl Harbour LP in years, thanx for jogging my memory about how great it is. And thanx for spinning some Running From Daylight.

1:43 PM, January 17th, 2024

Neil and the Dancing LABRADOR
Bam!! Drake the Dancing Labrador right out of his nap and cut a couple of moves in the kitchen immediately. Pearl Harbour is freaking awesome, Renny. I used to love bin diving and still do on occasion. No feeling like striking gold baby!!

1:43 PM, January 17th, 2024

Frankie
Great opening set. Among my favs, the bands you mentioned above. I concur with their feelings about the dentist. Any idea who the vocalist is Renny?

1:46 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
Too true. My first taste of Dr. Feelgood was from a delete bin, it's my favourite Dr. Feelgood album to this day. "Case of the Shakes".

1:48 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
Pearl Harbour. I don't know what her real name was, I forgot. I can look it up for you. She was half German, half Filipino . She also went by another pseudonym, Pearl. E. Gates or something like that.

1:52 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
She and Paul Simeon of the Clash were an item.

1:52 PM, January 17th, 2024

Frankie
I remember finding the Stooges' Raw Power album in a delete bin at Treble Clef, only about a year after it first came out. Does anyone remember Treble Clef?

1:54 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
I do. Then it became Super Clef, at Merivale Road near Baseline.

1:56 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
The delete bins often had much better albums than what was at the top of the charts at the time.

1:56 PM, January 17th, 2024

Frankie
Yes quite true. I also found Link Wray's "Bullshot" album in those delete bins. The only drawback was the punched hole thru the album covers.

2:02 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
Ditto. with the "Bullshot" album. Christ, I'd pay $1.99 just to hear "Switchblade".

2:04 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
And the Woolco stores all had the cheap Italian rock and jazz compilations,

2:06 PM, January 17th, 2024

Frankie
I missed the Woolco stuff Renny, darn. Yes that Bullshot album was like finding the mother lode.

2:12 PM, January 17th, 2024

Steve Kirkland
Just tuning in now... Woolco? What did I miss? I used to buy 7-inch singles at Woolco in Toronto (Weston) as a kid! Never got any picture sleeves when you bought 'em in Department Stores... and I never had enough money to buy albums, so wouldn't have bothered even looking at them.

2:19 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
La Grande Storia Del Rock and I Giganti Del Jazz

2:23 PM, January 17th, 2024

IanJ
La Grande Storia Del Rock and I Giganti Del Jazz. I definitely have a few of those!

2:26 PM, January 17th, 2024

SK
ah, yes, always thought those were the ugliest LP covers ever...

2:27 PM, January 17th, 2024

whatwave dave
Thanx for playing that Corb Lund track.....I had no idea he did anything like that!!

2:30 PM, January 17th, 2024

Frankie
I wonder now, were there any "Goblin" tracks on those Italian comp. abums?

2:35 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
He's got a great motorcycle song on that album as well.

2:36 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
Oddly enough Frankie, it wasn't Italian bands on the collections.

2:38 PM, January 17th, 2024

I hung @ Sam's...TO. Not, A&A! He lived @ the front door...gotcha comin in & going out... him & Ed Mirvish & Mel Lastman were smartest hustlers in Canada!;-)

WHAT A GREAT PLAY LIST! Love the energy. Day off from school because of the snow today! Listening from the Cowichan Valley, Vancouver Island!

2:50 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
I thought the snow was on the mountains in Lotus Land, Daragh.....

2:52 PM, January 17th, 2024

Frankie
Yes, Sam's was the holy grail

2:54 PM, January 17th, 2024

Benoît
Hey, Rotten Renny! It's written as "Pear Harbor" in every song credit! Late to the show! Will demand it!

2:56 PM, January 17th, 2024

Benoît
Sorry, as "Pear Herbour" with a u. Still needs an el...

2:57 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
Where is Johnny Loan? He would have dug today's show.

2:57 PM, January 17th, 2024

b
Okay, no more typos! IT's written as "Pear Harbour", without that el. sheesh

2:58 PM, January 17th, 2024

Frankie
No need for lyrics here, Walter's harp will say it all.

2:59 PM, January 17th, 2024

Frankie
Ha ha , I saw that Benoit.

3:00 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
Thanks Benoît. I put the "L" on her name.

3:00 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
This is for hillbilly of course.

3:01 PM, January 17th, 2024

IanJ
Pearl had to add the "u' in Harbour when she got signed to a UK label.

3:07 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny
I refuse to drop the "u" from harbour, neighbour nor favourite. It's an American ploy. Before you know it we'll be calling the last letter "zee" instead of "zed".

3:16 PM, January 17th, 2024

Johnny Loan
Another great show

3:21 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
So glad you heard it Johnny.

3:25 PM, January 17th, 2024

Renny G (host)
Thank you all for listening and for posting.

3:26 PM, January 17th, 2024

Frankie
Great show, thanks.

3:26 PM, January 17th, 2024

Merci! been playin along lots today!;-)

3:27 PM, January 17th, 2024

Sonny Terry could talk through his harp, "I want my mama".

3:29 PM, January 17th, 2024

God;-)
Hillbilly is mine!
