Caesar’s Palace, “Jerk It Out” from "Love for the Streets" 2002

This track is utterly, totally derivative of #60s early psychedelia, and utterly, totally perfect, from the swirling #Farfisa #organ out front to those shakers chasing and spicing the beat.

You may know this Swedish band as #Caesars but they originally recorded under the name Caesar’s Palace (with a couple of US releases as The Twelve Caesars).

This track first appeared on their 2002 release Love for the Streets, and they wisely included it on the rebranded band’s ‘debut’ album “Paper Tigers” in 2005, where it’s most widely available (albeit not on the sole vinyl release, nor the Swedish CD).

I knew them first from Paper Tigers, #PowerPop that makes it hard to sit still, with some of their earlier, grittier #GarageRock feel still intact. Whatever the name, wherever you find them, these guys get the job done.

This one might hit weird at first, but if you like fuzzy, weird psych-pop rock, just keep listening. It'll hook you. These SONGS, man. BEYOND catchy earworms.

I've talked about King Dick on here before, which is the project of brilliant Belgian multi-instrumentalist and singer Wim De Busser. He's been releasing singles from an upcoming LP that should be coming later this year, and the singles are great, but most of his older recordings are a bit rough. So thankfully he re-recorded some of his older songs and released this fucking KILLER record with them on it in 2021 -- Hit Box 21.

Help, can't stop listening. 😂 I listen to this DAILY, no joke, at least once. Literally. These are some wild psych-pop songs. Whew. And I still hear new things every time I listen. FFO maybe Velvet Underground, Beatles, Zombies, etc.

Get in on that King Dick action.

THE REMAINS ON PBS

We had nothing quite like The Remains until this band came along. Widely known for loudness - loudest band I ever heard was a common expression - The Remains ought to be at least as well known for tightness. One of the bootlegs had a track that, no doubt, was not intended for the public to hear. Vern's bass started out too loud, Barry's vocal was a little tentative. It sounded to me like a song they had just reworked and they recorded it promptly to get the arrangement down for reference in future sessions. Then they came to the refrain and the four just hammered it in really close formation. They transformed instantly from four guys working out a song to THE REMAINS ready to take on the world. It was a terrific thing to hear. Some of the available film footage shows a young Vern Miller characteristically hopping about on stage and Barry answering with hops of his own. "Remains Nights" at the early-1960s incarnation of The Rat were where Boston's highly productive rock scene got its start. When Chip Damiani left the band in the lead-up to the Beatles tour, The Remains added a remarkable drummer, ND Smart II. ND was subsequently in a John Hall group, Kangaroo; and then he was in one of my all-time favorite bands, The Great Speckled Bird with Ian and Sylvia. Chip is the drummer The Remains wanted but the band, nonetheless, aced the percussion position with ND, easily one of the very best drummers I ever heard live. Bill Briggs, as The Remains tech guy, was a big part of the band's success. The best equipment and knowing stage set-up were fundamental to what made these four musicians The Remains. This was a highly professional, focused band with what Nancy Neon calls "garage spirit." "Ticket To Ride" by Barry Tashian is one of New England rock history's essential books. A music store in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, displayed a collage made up of various newspaper headlines and notices, each in its own way speaking of The Remains blowing The Beatles off stage. It was great! RiP Chip Damiani.

Super fun one for this week's #MusicWomenWednesday. The 5.6.7.8s just put out this cool 'Best hits of' compilation. Gotta love these gals. Kinda 60s, kinda surfy, garagey, unhinged/cute vocals. You may recognize the song 'Woo Hoo' from Kill Bill, which is included here. Also, they have a song about Mothra. You can't go wrong with that.
