Booker T. & The MG’s: Hip Hug-Her
The Moontrekkers - Night Of The Vampire
Joe Meek was obsessed with the occult and the idea of “the other side”. He would set up tape machines in graveyards in a vain attempt to record voices from beyond the grave, in one instance capturing the meows of a cat he claimed was speaking in human tones, asking for help. In particular, he had an obsession with Buddy Holly (claiming the late American rocker had communicated with him in dreams) and other dead rock and roll musicians. His professional efforts were often hindered by his paranoia (Meek was convinced that Decca Records would put hidden microphones behind his wallpaper in order to steal his ideas), drug use and attacks of rage or depression. Upon receiving an apparently innocent phone call from Phil Spector, Meek immediately accused Spector of stealing his ideas before hanging up angrily. Meek’s homosexuality - illegal in the UK at the time - put him under further pressure; he had been charged with “importuning for immoral purposes” in 1963 and was consequently subjected to blackmail. In January of 1967, police in Tattingstone, Suffolk, discovered a suitcase containing the mutilated body of Bernard Oliver, an alleged rent boy who had previously associated with Meek. According to some accounts, Meek became concerned that he would be implicated in the murder investigation when the Metropolitan police stated that they would be interviewing all known homosexuals in the city. In the meantime, the hits had dried up and as Meek’s financial position became increasingly desperate, his depression deepened. On 3 February 1967, the eighth anniversary of Buddy Holly’s death, Meek killed his landlady Violet Shenton and then himself with a single barreled shotgun that he had confiscated from his protegé, former Tornados bassist and solo star Heinz Burt at his Holloway Road home/studio. Meek had flown into a rage and taken the gun from Burt when he informed Meek that he used it while on tour to shoot birds. Meek had kept the gun under his bed, along with some cartridges. As the shotgun had been registered to Burt, he was questioned intensively by police, before being eliminated from their enquiries.

Al Casey - Surfin' Hootenanny
Love this track's guitar licks, galloping beat, and exuberant vocal shouts from The K-C-Ettes.
More than just a surf tune, it feels like a beach party meets a country jam session—playful, rhythmic, and packed with charm.
I already posted it last year, but it deserves more love!

Surf Bunny is wild, sharp, and endlessly fun
Surf rock at its absolute finest.
Time for another spin!

There’s something wild yet strangely beautiful about I See the Light.
One Way Street channels teen angst through a wall of fuzz and desperation.
