Classic Rerun: Florida Rocks Again! #21

The all-time greats from the Sunshine State return to the GaragePunk Podcast to emote for the ages with a three-hankie, five-star episode where all of the songs are all about shedding many bitter tears. Sometimes the singers are talking about making someone else cry, but more often than not, it’s the singers themselves who are the ones doing the crying. 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.

Produced by JM Dobies and Jeff Lemlich in Living Monophonic Sound.

Classic Reruns: The Mal Thursday Show #5 / Florida Rocks Again! #25

This weekend, it's a double shot of classic reruns from the GaragePunk.com Podcast Archives:


Live recordings of rock ‘n’ roll bands from the mid-’60s are often a mixed bag of out-of-tune guitars, screaming girls, and questionable mic placement. Witness the Rolling Stones’ Got Live If You Want It and The Kinks’ Live at Kelvin Hall, to name but two. Then there are the fake live records, where audience noise is dubbed on to studio recordings, usually with underwhelming results.

Here, originally posted 5/5/08, is the most popular episode of The Mal Thursday Show to date, "Live 'n Wild," featuring some excellent live garage records, drawn from 45s, radio and TV broadcasts, demo tapes, and even a Hawaiian “Battle of the Bands” LP.

Presented in Living Monophonic Sound.

The other classic rerun is Florida Rocks Again! #25, "Girls, Girls, Girls," a rockin’ roll call of delightful dolls and delectable dames as the all-time greats from the Sunshine State sing songs with girls’ names in the title. Featuring a mess of fine Florida garage 45s, as well as some deep soul, psych, rockabilly, and crispy, crunchy country rock, with added bonus cuts by the Champions and Papa Don Schroeder.

Classic Rerun: Florida Rocks Again! #23


Classic Rerun: FLORIDA ROCKS AGAIN! #23: Night and Day

In one of the most rockin' episodes of the long-running series starring the all-time greats from the Sunshine State, 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 moves into the garage 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. Actually, this episode should have had three Paris Tower 45s on it. How could we forget the Missing Links' "Where Were You Last Night"?
