FRANK ZAPPA 1978! - STATUS LEGENDARY FOR THIS POUGHKEEPSIE SHOW THAT IS A SHEER HORROR

Remember Dweezil & siblings, Father Frank is watching. There are many reasons this 1978 show in Puoghkeepsie NY (where, on a quick sidebar I went to boarding school in 7th grade but still can't spell or pronounce the name of the city properly) is owned by all serious collectors and considered a necessary addition to your Zappa live collection. The crowd's response when he first comes out sets the tone right off for a great show. The combo of Bobby Brown to Conehead to Mo's Vacation is flat out dope. If you've never partaken of the Poughkeepsie '78 waters, then dive in, set list, sbd Rating A-

"I SAILED TO TAHIHI WITH AN ALL-GIRL CREW"! - WELL NOTHING ELSE TO DO AFTER HOLIDAY - THE HORROR!

For those of us that remember a thing called UHF with channels like 53 and 56, I respectfully submit
one of the rarest of all 60's B-flicks to come by. Only available in bootleg form taped from TV, this hidden gem is high camp 60's drive-in fare at it's best. Two goofball captains bet each other on a race with one housing an all-girl crew supposedly considered a handicap but of course there within lies all the fun, jokes and gags. Get ready to enjoy a real....The Horror!! Pinewoods Rating System - Two & 3/4 Pinewoods

LEE QUINN: He Sailed to Tahiti With an All-Girl Crew

Sailors of a certain age will remember seeing this B-movie title in TV listings for certain low-budget UHF stations back in the day: I Sailed To Tahiti With an All-Girl Crew.

I SAILED TO TAHITI WITH AN ALL GIRL CREW, 1968 DVD: modcinema*

It's silliness on the high seas as two sneaky sailors race across the South Pacific in this fast-paced and campy comedy. The fun begins when one bets the other $20,000 that he, with an all girl crew, be the first to Tahiti in a sailboat race.


THE HORROR!!

THE ABSOLUTE HORROR!!

CELEBRATING USA WITH THE HALL & OATES LIBERTY CONCERT! - H2O MEGA-POST YA DIG? THE HORROR!!

Holy crap, check out that electric piano. - This concert holds a special place in my heart. Prior to it's being shown on HBO in '86, I knew very little about them but after seeing this concert the rest of the 80's would find me enamored with them. When it hit HBO it was in heavy rotation for a good 4 months or so. Even after watching it many times, I still landed up being two hours late for a recording session with my band as it came on while I was getting ready. A great slice of Americana and one of the most iconic concerts ever, enjoy the H2O megapost.....The Horror!!
Now if you want to see another outstanding H2O show, then the "Rock N Soul Live" VHS is an absolute must-have. A show in Toronto on the H2O album tour in front of a packed house at the peak of their career, great concert!

FIVE H20 SONGS YOU PROBABLY NEVER HEARD....THE HORROR
Kerry - Side 1 closer from Bigger Than Both Of Us album
H2O slams it out of the park with this cover and their harmonies, simply bliss!
Ahhhh, getting clever now, a Tommy fav from Private Eyes ALBUM
The song itself was scrapped from the album with it's name for some weird reason but appeared on the next album, Beauty On A Back Street.
This pick's for the 4th, an outstanding track on an album comprised of nothing but outstanding tracks. 
THE SHEER & UTTER HORROR!!

After having already posted all the Wizardo Renaissance Minstrels in the KO series, I decided to add this one as well and not wait until later. The blue & black edition with the red 'Rare Old Stuff' label seems to be one of the rarer Wizardo titles.

READING BETWEEN THE GROOVES BLOG PRESENTS "A GEORGE MARTIN PRODUCTION"! - THE HORROR!!

Greetings folks - TGIF, rite? Recommended blog Reading Between The Grooves has recently completed a great series of 7 posts celebrating the production work of this recently passed genius of sound, the fifth Beatle, George Martin. Couple of links below, check him out, great blog by a professor of music Gold & Platinum awarded....The Horror!!

Reading between the Grooves

Day four of our look at the production work of George Martin with a cut from guitarist Jeff Beck's instrumental album "Blow by Blow." This LP was a departure for Beck and moved him into more of a jazz vein. "Blow by Blow" was the second album that credited him as a solo act - the first being 1968's "Truth."

Reading between the Grooves

While George Martin had produced numerous #1 hits with The Beatles and others, he had a drought between 1970 and 1975. His final top charting song with The Beatles was his production on the "Let it Be" single.

Reading between the Grooves

Formed in 1976, American Flyer was considered to be the newest folk-rock super group; however, it was difficult, despite their quasi-famous lineup, to live up to the reputation. The band consisted of Craig Fuller of the Pure Prairie League; Eric Kaz ex the Blues Magoos; Steve Katz formerly of Blood, Sweat, & Tears; and Doug Yule previously with the Velvet Underground.

Reading between the Grooves

I couldn't end out my tribute to George Martin without featuring one of his most famous and involved recordings: The Beatles' "A Day in the Life." This final cut on the "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" album took a total of 34 hours to record and the sessions comprised four days in January and February 1967.

THE HORROR KNOWN AS "TERROR IN THE JUNGLE'! - 1968 SUSPENSE AND TERROR BEYOND BELIEF...NOT!

The Sheer Horror! Phew...P-UUU, this one has all of my favorite story components yet fails to deliver on any level. I actually had to abandon ship on this one at approximately the 45 min mark. This movie is so bad it could not qualify for any Pinewoods but instead receives an exclusive award, The Pinewood Fell Over On My House And Owes Me 45 Minutes Award.....The Horror!!

Terror In The Jungle (1968)

The Haunted Closet: Terror In the Jungle (1967)

UPDATE: THE AWESOME MUSICAL INTERLUDE "SOFT LIPS" NOW ON YOU-TUBE (VIDEO EMBEDDED BELOW) I happened upon a movie recently that was so awful, but in the most wonderful ways, that it instantly became my new favorite bad movie. It's a film that exists in the fever-dream funhouse where sheer incompetence collides with accidental genius.

Chris Alexander SHOCK TREATMENT: Why 1968's TERROR IN THE JUNGLE is the (cough) Greatest Movie Ever Made! - Shock Till You Drop

Wanna see something strange? I mean, something really, really weird? Something off and wonderfully odd? A movie so perversely ridiculous and herky-jerk that watching it achieves some swooning-state of astral projection in the delirious viewer? Well then, dear readers, may I randomly present to you the most insane film I've ever seen.
