FLORIDA ROCKS AGAIN! #44: Even More of the Ones That Got Away

malthursday@yahoo.com (JM Dobies) — Wed, 02 Feb 2011 17:30:00 PST

Host: Mal Thursday

"Even More of the Ones That Got Away"

Another installment featuring some great 45s that for whatever reason, we hadn't gotten around to playing in the previous 43 episodes. You'd think that after more than 40 episodes, there wouldn't be very many great Florida garage records that haven't already been heard on this series. You would be wrong. Witness the selection of Floridian teenbeat genius in the first two sets. There's also some smokin' South Florida soul and some '67-era greatness from the Kollektion and Blues Image.

Written and produced by J.M. Dobies, co-produced by Jeff Lemlich. Presented in Living Monophonic Sound.

Anywhere But Here

Host: Mal Thursday

This eclectic episode is sort of a companion piece to Florida Rocks Again! #20. Unlike that show, where all of the songs were about Florida, all of these songs are about other places.

Featuring Hour Glass, Wayne Cochran, Charlie Pickett & the Eggs, Sammy Ambrose, and many more.

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!

Hurricane!

Host: Mal Thursday

Once again, it’s hurricane season in the Sunshine State, and this episode is all about the tropical storms that heap abuse upon Floridians every year around this time. So here’s a collection of garage, rock ‘n’ roll, deep soul, and country-rock nuggets all about the stormy weather that is an unfortunate fact of life in Florida. Batten down the hatches, and turn it up so you can hear it over the howling wind. Produced by JM Dobies and Jeff Lemlich in Living Monophonic Sound.

Miami: Where the Action Is!

Host: Mal Thursday

Florida Rocks Again! returns to the Miami (see episode #10 for the first installment) area for this most rocking episode, in honor of “Geezerpalooza 2008,” a concert which featured some of the top South Florida bands of the ’60s: the Birdwatchers, the Montells, Dr. T & the Undertakers, the Dead End Kids, Geekus, and special guest star Steve Alaimo. The event, held Saturday August 9, 2008 at the Fort Lauderdale War Memorial and MC’d by Miami radio legend Rick Shaw, was a rousing success. All of the above make appearances in this groovy installment of the long-running series, produced by JM Dobies and Jeff Lemlich in Living Monophonic Sound.

Rockabilly Riot!

Host: Mal Thursday

It’s a Rockabilly Riot as Mal Thursday presents an episode full o’ swingin’ sides from the Sunshine State circa the ’50s and early ’60s, waxed up by such three-chord geniuses as Johnny Red, Tracy Pendarvis, Benny Joy, and others. Edited down from its original form as an installment of Florida Rocks Again’s original broadcast run on WSOS/St. Augustine, this down-and-dirty, short-but-sweet set will make you hop, bop, and boogie.

Night and Day

Host: Mal Thursday

In perhaps the most rockin’ episode yet of the long-running series, every song has the word “Night” or “Day” in the title, or both, as in the opening number by the Razor’s Edge out of West Palm Beach. Although the episode starts with a Cole Porter song, it quickly segues into garage greatness with rare cuts by some of the grooviest groups to ever emerge from the swamps, beaches, and backwaters of F-L-A, as well as two different 45s from the legendary Paris Tower label. Produced by JM Dobies and Jeff Lemlich in living mono.

Featuring 21 weepin' wailers from such artists as Benny Joy, Mouse & the Boys, the Montells, and a set of Daytona-area music presented by the great Lee Hazen.

Host: Mal Thursday

Starring the All-Time Greats from the Sunshine State, rocking the usual garage sounds, plus some tasty fuzz pop, folk blues, deep soul, and heavy rock flavors.

Orlando Rocks Again!

Host: Mal Thursday

Mal Thursday takes you on a trip back in time to Orlando in the ’60s and early ’70s, before the Mouse came to town, when top teen combos kicked out the jams at the youth centers and armories of Central Florida. Featuring exclusive interviews with Wayne Proctor of We The People and members of Tin House, whose bands topped the bill at the Orlando Reunion Concert on September 16th, 2006, hosted by Mal himself. To get We The People’s genius 2-disc anthology Mirror of Our Minds, go to sundazed.com. To get Tin House’s 1971 Rick Derringer-produced LP on Epic, be prepared to spend big bucks on eBay, or you’ll get outbid by Malaysian record collectors.

Hey, Man!

Host: Mal Thursday

The latest installment of Florida Rocks Again! is an eclectic mix of ’60s sounds from the Sunshine State. The first half of the program features songs with the word “Man” in the title, while the latter half features songs with “woman,” “lady,” or “girl” in the title. There are primitive garage classics from We The People, the Dark Horsemen, and Billy Sandlin & the Interns (thanks to BossHoss for that one), plus Florida-born legends Gram Parsons, Fred Neil, and Tampa Red, not to mention the first appearance in the series of the infamous Blowfly, performing “Hole Man.” Produced by JM Dobies and Jeff Lemlich in living monophonic sound.

Sunshine State Garage

Host: Mal Thursday

This installment of Florida Rocks Again! is the purest expression of the show’s garage underbelly, with many great cuts from 1965 to 1968, but most from 1966. Together with “Sunshine State Garage Revisited” (episode #5 & 7) this episode makes the case for Florida’s garage greatness. Featuring We The People, the Allman Joys, Beaver Patrol, and many, many more. All the bleeps in the last set are a tribute to the genius of the Montells and the late Morton “Doc” Downey. Hope y’all don’t mind ‘em too much. An earlier version of this episode was part of the original 2004-2005 broadcast run on Oldies WSOS in NE Fla. — I had to bleep “shit,” “piss,” and even “ass,” but was allowed to air the words “poontang” and “beaver” from the Vandals’ “I Saw Her in a Mustang.”Produced by JM Dobies and Jeff Lemlich in living mono.
