SONG OF THE DAY Dick Campbell – Like the Wind That’s Free
Oh WOW!!! Hold tight for this one!! This song should come with a warning!!! It’s sooooooooo dreamy, so you may just need to anchor yourself for this or its destination floaty-land!!! Yesterday I discovered a collection of albums released by … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY The Dragons – Elephant Stomp
If the groove to this little slinker doesn’t get you, I don’t know what will! This hot little surf-rock stomper is such an ear butterfly!! Released on Capitol Records in 1964, Elephant Stomp was the b-side to its equally ear-bending … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY John Paul Jones – Kalani Honey
There has been some speculation as to whether the John Paul Jones behind this record was, indeed, the future bass guitarist for Led Zeppelin, but I don’t think that this is the case?.. Kalani Honey was a rather refined surf … Continue reading

SONG OF THE DAY Los Pirañas – Lambada de Oceania, Africa y America (eran un solo continente)
Described as “retro-futurism at its finest”, Columbia’s Los Pirañas are a band who are not afraid to experiment, in fact, they simply thrive on it! Fusing South American rhythms and sonics (including cumbia, champeta, tropicalia, salsa, and more) with Avant … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY Les Talismans – L’interplanetaire
With so many bands revisiting old and retro sounds, it’s sometimes hard to date music these days; such was the case with today’s song. At first I thought it may be a new band dishing out this tremendous Tarantino/Dick Dale-esque … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY The Caribs – Taboo
With hints of early ska, reggae, surf and exotica all carefully blended into this intensely dreamy and deliciously sublime fusion of sound, there’s a little bit for everyone in this sonic delight! Issued on Island Records in 1960, Taboo was … Continue reading
SONG OF THE DAY Los Saicos – Come On
Considered one of the most original and influential Latin American bands of the 1960’s, Los Saicos were a pioneering Peruvian Garage/Proto Punk band from Lima, Peru. When they first emerged there were many groups trying to imitate the style and … Continue reading
