V/A-Quagmire Volume 1: Sixties Punk Mysteries From the USA
2007-11-30 04:15:00
Still on my 60s kick, I apologize to any of you with musical tastes so narrow you might not be into it. Every once in a while, I'll completely stop listening to the 70s punk, hardcore, Oi, or whatever else heavy sub-genres of punk I'm usually spinning, and get back into the old stuff. It's like a musical enema and we all need them from time to time. As mentioned as a comment in the last post, there are dozens of compilations documenting 60s punk, garage, and psych. The world-famous Nuggets is easily the go-to for people getting into the rougher songs of the genres, and while it has some great songs, it includes quite a few misplaced duds, and barely scratches the surface of all the great singles that came out in the 60s. The 60s were a decade dominated by singles as opposed to LPs, both in the mainstream and the underground (and some damn good music charted on the Top 40 during those 10 years), and indies were starting to flex their muscle in regional scenes, exposing hundreds of...

Goldenbleu?s off white ?Tanya? wedge boots - perfect sixties style
2007-09-25 18:46:00
Goldenbleu?s off white ?Tanya? wedge boots - perfect sixties style I?m a sensible girl (usually) but I do have a few fanciful ideas, and one of those is that if I get the right outfit I will look like Emma Peel from the Avengers (that?s a young and gorgeous Dame Diana Rigg for anyone who hasn?t seen it). The chances of me running around in a catsuit are pretty slim but these off white wedge boots will fulfil all my Avengers fantasies ? they?re sixties-tastic! They?re the ?Tanya? from Goldenbleu but at US$725 I might be pushing my fantasy budget a bit far.

Sixties TV Dr Who Companions
2007-07-25 00:32:00
When Doctor Who was created, the dramatic structure of the program’s cast was rather different from the hero-and-sidekick pattern that emerged later. Initially, the character of the Doctor was almost an antihero, with uncertain motives and abilities. The protagonists were schoolteachers Ian Chesterton and Barbara Wright, who provided the audience’s point-of-view in stories set in ...

Sixties TV - The Twilight Zone
2007-07-16 06:22:00
One of television’s most rightly revered series, The Twilight Zone (CBS, 1959-64) stands as the role model for TV anthologies. Its trenchant sci-fi/fantasy parables explore humanity’s hopes, despairs, prides and prejudices in metaphoric ways conventional drama cannot. Creator Rod Serling wrote the majority of the scripts, and produced those of such now-legendary writers as Richard Matheson ...

But in the sixties, watching television was a separate activity. You scheduled time for it, and it was likely ...

Sixties pop star burns bailiff's car
2007-05-29 08:22:00
Sixties pop star Wayne Fontana, who arrived for his court hearing dressed as the Old Bailey's Lady of Justice, was remanded in custody today after he admitted setting fire to a debt collector's car. A judge called the former lead singer of the Mindbenders a "fool" after he turned up in court in fancy dress. Wearing a crown and home-made cape, the defendant, whose real name is Glyn Ellis, had to hand in his fake sword and scales to security guards before the hearing at Derby Crown Court. He kept his dark glasses on, however, claiming "justice is blind".
