Side A - Catch A Ride

Side B - In My Life

 

This copy is a re-issue from Feb 1967 from the original Nov 66 release on the 5-D label.

Their 1965 single "Catch A Ride" stakes a claim as possessing one of the heaviest Fuzztone sounds of that year, months ahead of what was happening in New York, San Francisco or London.

The Grifs were an American garage rock band from Charlotte, North Carolina, who were active in the 1960s. Their song, "Catch a Ride" became the number one hit in Charlotte and did well in markets around the Carolinas, and reached number one in Birmingham, Alabama. The group was able to secure airplay in northern markets, such as in Lansing, Michigan, where it reached number one, as well as in the Detroit area and parts of Canada. They were invited to open for the Amboy Dukes in Detroit, where they began to play frequent engagements in the Michigan region, and recorded their second single, "Keep Dreaming", in Detroit. Just when the Grifs prospects looked hopeful, drummer Roy Skinner departed and guitarist Mike Wingate received a draft notice to go to Vietnam. By early 1968, the group folded. Their work is now highly regarded by garage rock enthusiasts and several of their songs have appeared on compilations.

Some of my guitar pedals. Top row is for fuzzes, second row is for distortions and overdrives, third row is for modulation effects (chorus, flanger etc.) and bottom row is for tonal effects.

The Cramps, ‘Off The Bone’. A 1983 compilation housing the band’s singles thus far. With a 3D cover (3D glasses included). I love The Cramps. The bastard children of Elvis from the Swamp. Voodoo stomp drums, rockabilly guitar, twang, Sun echo, Lux Interior’s demented vocals and schlock lyrics celebrating sex, drugs and rock n roll. ‘Human Fly’ slow and buzzing. ‘The Way I Walk’ a riff stroll with screams. ‘Domino’ twin guitar dementia and hiccuped vocal. ‘Surfin’ Bird’ more deranged than the Trashmen’s version. ‘Lonesome Town’ slooow and reverbed. ‘Garbageman’ filthy riff. ‘Fever’ like Peggy Lee on bad drugs. ‘Drug Train’ a joyous stomp. ‘Love Me’ stop/start riff and crazed vocal. ‘I Can’t Hardly Stand It’ slow and sleazy. ‘Goo Goo Muck’ a shimmy shake. ‘She Said’ truly wired madness. ‘The Crusher’ a hard, dirty, rockin’ blast. ‘Save It’ B-movie horror dynamics and slashing axe. ‘New Kind of Kick’ fuzztone and primal beat. The Cramps. Screamin’…

Boo! Twelve years ago this month, I unleashed my very first podcast full of tacky Halloween humor, dumb audio clips and crazed ghoul-adjacent rock 'n' roll. The podcast quickly evolved into The Big Big Enchilada, and the Spooktacular became an annual monstrous tradition of terror.

 

Remember, The Big Enchilada still is officially listed in the iTunes store. So go subscribe, if you haven't already (and please, gentle listeners, give me a five-star rating and review if you're so inclined.) Thanks.

What the sound of heavily distorted electric guitar looks like...

What to say about the legendary Rudi Protrudi, the king of ´80s garage rock? I first met Rudi in New York in the 80´s. I have quite a few photos of Rudi here on the website in the 80´s New York and Club 57 categories. I met Rudi at Club 57 along with Deb O´Nair. They had just terminated their new wave band Tina Peel and formed a band called The Fuzztones. I went to see them play many times throughout the years and was always blown away by their raw and real garage kick ass performances. They have gone on to have a legendary status among rock fans. After spending many years in New York Rudi moved to Los Angeles and reformed the Fuzztones to test the waters out. After playing abroad in Europe they soon shook L.A. rock realities and were the premier garage band on the scene. I should mention that Rudi formed Link Protrudi and The Jaymen, an instrumental tribute to Link Wray. They ended up recording several albums and successfully toured Europe and North America. Rudi has played with legends such as Screaming Jay Hawkins, Sky Saxon and lots more. He also appears in the Screaming Jay Hawkins documentary. I remember him playing in the fun heavy metal band that Ann Magnuson formed called Vulcan Death Grip.

  

Flash forward to somewhere around the year 2000: Rudi went to a concert to see the legendary The Bonniwell Music Machine in Los Angeles. He then saw Lana Loveland playing her Hammond organ on stage with them and was entranced. At their last concert in 2002, Rudi finally approached Lana and asked her to join the Fuzztones. It took some time, but they soon found themselves whisked off their feet and living together in Berlin doing various creative collaborations together.

 

I should also mention that Rudi is a prolific artist and… Hell! There really is too much write, so let me conclude with this, the important thing is: The Fuzztones still live! It is their 30th anniversary this year and they plan to tour again. I am also happy to say that we plan to make a film documentary about the Fuzztones where we are going to capture the rawness and madness of The Fuzztones from their origins to the present time. We hope to capture the Fuzztone reality without holding anything back and to make it a real rock and roll viewing experience.
