Florida Rocks Again! #43: What's in a Name?

After a lengthy hiatus, Mal Thursday returns to Florida to dig up another treasure chest full of rare nuggets by the all-time greats from the Sunshine State.

Featuring music from the Belles, the Allman Joys, We The People, the Royal Guardsmen, Charlie Pickett, Betty Wright, and many more. Dedicated to the memory of the late, great King Coleman and Montells/Evil drummer Jeff Allen.

Classic Rerun: Florida Rocks Again! #12

Florida Rocks Again! #12: All About You!

This installment of Florida Rocks Again!, originally posted in February of 2006, features songs with the word “You” in the title. In addition to the usual assortment of mid-’60s garage bands, this episode also contains a set of smokin’ southern soul, and, in honor of Bike Week (held every March in Daytona Beach), a set of early ’70s hard rock and boogie. Starring Conlon & the Crawlers, the Montells, BOOT — the later, “heavier” incarnation of the Split Ends (”Rich With Nothing”) — and many more. Hosted by Mal Thursday, produced by JM Dobies and Jeff Lemlich, and presented in Living Mono. Special thanks to BossHoss for the Crawlers and Canadian Rogues tracks. Hope you all dig it!

Florida Rocks Again! in the Pensacola News-Journal

Troy Moon has written a feature article in today's Pensacola News-Journal about the local music scene of the '60s, inspired by the most recent episode of Florida Rocks Again!, "Jeff's Panhandle Party Platter."

Pictured above is the Sandpipers, backed up by Daytona Beach legends the Allman Joys at the Sahara Club in 1966. Charlyne Kilpatrick of the Sandpipers remembers that the Allmans were "skinny and ugly."
