Love That Album - The Compilation Series: Episode 11 – A Real Cool Pop




Love That Album show

Summary: <br> Happy New Year everyone. Love That Album podcast is back<br> again for 2015. We here at LTA headquarters will strive to continue to bring<br> you great music discussion.<br> <br> We start the year off with an episode of LTA: The<br> Compilation Series hosted by Eric Reanimator…..and he’s bringing you a high<br> dose of energetic punk and garage sounds via two fantastic compilations.<br> <br> First of all, Eric discusses an Australian compilation Do<br> The Pop!: The Australian Garage Rock Sound 1976-1987. Eric’s passion for Radio<br> Birdman was the starting point for him picking up on this brilliant 2 CD set,<br> but there’s a treasure trove of material here from the likes of the Hoodoo<br> Gurus, The Eastern Dark, The Saints, The Sunnyboys and a plethora of other<br> bands, mixing and influenced by the punk, garage and pop sounds of the 60s and 70s.<br> This corner of the world was making essential music all northern hemisphere<br> music fans of these genres need to pick up on. [As an adjunct, I’m hoping to<br> get an interview for a future LTA with the man who put this anthology together –<br> stay tuned].<br> <br> Then, Eric goes to Sweden to tells us about the virtues of A<br> Real Cool Time Revisited: Swedish Punk, Pop and garage Rock 1982-1989.<br> Essentially, the Swedish equivalent of Do The Pop, it features bands like The Nomads,<br> The Crimson Shadows, The Bottle Ups, and The Creeps. Like the Australian bands,<br> the Swedes put out excellent material in a scene worked independently of the<br> Americans and the British. This is another terrific compilation worthy of your<br> attention.<br> <br> Once again, Eric delivers the goods with intelligent music<br> discussion about music you truly need to hear.
