Being Canadian, in our country French is considered by law to be our Second Language, so despite my geographical location "out west", Oui Oui’s tune was mostly understandable. Heck, in Quebec, Montreal is referred to as “La Ville”! Good to hear Bo DIddley (The Originator) in an album that was the followup to “Bo Diddley is a Gunslinger” and yes he was looing good!

Johnny Switchblade

Thanks Captain! I see you are catching up on some older shows. I'm glad you liked that Funky French tune, and I'm sure you understood far more of it than I did! But I love the groove. Rock on....

PINK  FLOYD LADY  M.T. Martini

the Les Elgart orchestra . famous for the American bandstand theme . Bo diddley is always a pleasure to hear.

Johnny Switchblade

Cheers, PF Lady! Thanks for the informational tit-bit! And rock on....

This is a ridiculously busy week for me. The week leading up to Halloween always is! ;)
But this is exactly what I needed to get my day/week started! Thanks, Switchblade! 😎
Also. . . I LOVED Love and Rockets, Cab Calloway, Sterolab, John Cooper Clarke, Pylon,
The Jesters, Motörhead, Shonen Knife, AWOL One & Mascaria, & Leadbelly! RIP Ace! 🖤

Johnny Switchblade

Thanks RLC! Well, I hope you have a howling good Halloween! 🧛‍♀️🎃 I'm glad you found so much to like on this show. I love how John Cooper Clarke introduces 'Spilt Beans': ""Split peas!" casual man, casual..." lol. 😎Rave on...

Johnny Switchblade

Thanks DJ Craig T!

Ferd T. Elvin

Highlights for me: "La Ville" by Oui Oui, Cab Calloway, Leadbelly, Shonen Knife. I don't have my usual detailed comments, but nonetheless, I urge you to "rock on."

Johnny Switchblade

Thanks, Ferd, I'm just glad you enjoyed it! Look out for those Fish Eyes, and have a great weekend, moign. Rock on....

CaptManiac

Rockin' as usual! Now is it me, or did the singer for Love and Rockets sound a bit like Mick Jagger? That was my first impression when I heard the tune on your show, until I later realized it wasn't the Stones at all. Good show, as they say in the UK!

Johnny Switchblade

Thanks Mon Kapitan! Love And Rockets singer Daniel Ash does sound a bit Jaggerish, although I think Gaz Coombes of Supergrass sounds even more like Mick. Of course, I played the actual Jagger last week, lol. Have a great weekend!
