Oooooh spooky, can’t wait.

My "Bad News" podcast #4 for September streams for another week at https://gtf.club/stream/instrumental/
Tuesdays @ 3am, Thursdays @ 5pm, and Sundays @ 11am, all times PDT.

Also can be heard 24/7 on SoundCloud here: https://soundcloud.com/user-542309562/john-blair-bad-news-podcast-4-september-2021

All 1st Wave vinyl surf and hot-rod records. The podcast for October debuts on GTF, Sunday 10/3 at 11 am, PST (and will be available on Soundcloud later that day).

October's podcast will be a little spooky!!! There'll be some screaming and cackling, and a bit of reverb kicking. In curating this special podcast, it occurred to me that a great deal of reverb kicking on 1st Wave records was mostly on Halloween/horror/spooky titles (and not all of them were released in the fall). Listen to the October "Bad News" and you'll see. Or hear.

Here's the playlist for the current "Bad News" #4 (how many of these records are you familiar with?):
Ramrods "Night Ride"
Willie/Wheels "Skateboard Craze"
Challengers "Skinned Shins"
Floyd Robinson "Sidewalk Surfboard"
Titans "Summer Place"
Pixies Three "It's Summertime USA"
Tempos "See You In September"
Shades "Summer's Here"
Mermaids "Bunny Stomp"
Gene Gray/Stingerays "Surf Bunny"
Nodaens "Beach Girl"
Premiers "Daytona"
Revelers "426"
Rick/Ravens "Big Bucket T"
Mysterions "Ram Charger"
The Wanted "The Wanted"
Moptops "Moptop"
The Truants "The Truant"
The Valiants "The Valiant"
Emotions "Ebb Tide"
Strangers "Windy & Warm"
Countdowns "Lost Horizon"
Pageants "Enchanted Surf"

Subscribed! Liking it!

In believe 15 of the tunes I have in my collection on various medias like
record,cassette, or cd.

Looking forward to some vintage spooky rarities.
Thanks John
