There's a link just below that you can and should subscribe to, and it will change and contain the latest selections each week. Below that is the permanent playlist for episode 9. You can find all previous episodes / playlists by exploring the previous posts on this blog.
I think you have to click through to the Spotify app to listen to the songs in full. Underneath all that are my notes from this episode.
(Here is a link to the playlist that you need to subscribe to for the new episode each week )
- Shirley Knott
Rough Rider by Substratum from Permission to Rock (2018) As classic as it gets and I love them so much.
Demonize by Demonscar from Demonscar II (or Demonscar Deluxe) (2018) Again a recent release and a recent Bandcamp discovery. The music is very varied, from punk to classic metal via Doctor Feelgood. Two EPS are listed on Spotify; Demonscar and Demonscar II. You can buy a 'Deluxe' album on Bandcamp for $7 or more, which consists of all the songs from these two EPs. The first EP is probably more punky, second more classic and rock 'n' roll.
Throne of Games by Machinae Supremacy from Phantom Shadow (2014) The album sounds like a concept album, possibly with a story based around technology or games.
You Won't See me Comin' by Billy Morris and the Sunset Strip from Holdin' all the Aces (2018) dirty rock 'n' roll. Does it remind anyone else of Thin Lizzy? (Track later.)
Buried and Dead by White Coast Rebels from Hangin' with the Bad Boys (2013) More upbeat party-style rock. If this isn't a tribute to Cinderella then I'll be surprised.
Bad Seamstress Blues / Fallin' Apart At The Seams by Cinderella from Long Cold Winter (1988) The last track made me want to listen to this one, I think the Long Cold Winter album is their best (though it's not on Spotify as far as I can see, so this is from a greatest hits album).
Girlschool by Britny Fox from Britny Fox (1988) The connection here is that the band was formed with two former members of Cinderella - guitarist Michael Kelly Smith and drummer Tony Destra.
Please Don't Touch by Girlschool and Motörhead from the 'HeadGirl' St Valentine's Day Massacre EP (1980) A very obvious connection. The collaboration between Girlschool and Motörhead came about because of drummer Phil Taylor breaking his neck. Resulting in a classic EP.
Shine by Motörhead from Another Perfect Day (1983) Just Motorhead and a different sound thanks to guitarist Brian Johnson. The vinyl album featured a strip cartoon showing Brian plugging in and starting to play and Lemmy commenting "a bit musical, ain't he?"
Jailbreak by Thin Lizzy from Jailbreak (1976) Before Motorhead, Brian Johnson had played guitar with Thin Lizzy. That's a varied C.V.
Stand Up And Shout by Dio from Holy Diver (1983) The connection is guitarist Vivian Campbell who had served time in Thin Lizzy and was an early member of Dio
Dirty Women by Black Sabbath from Technical Ecstasy (1976) A late Ozzy-era Sabbath album and a particular favourite of mine. I was so chuffed when they chose to include this track on their final tour.
That's the list for this week.
