1000 Nadelstiche | book (german)
1000 Nadelstiche
Biographien, Discografien, Cover und Fotos
new (3rd) issue of this essential 352 page book. Elvis, The Beatles, Roy Orbinson, Temptations, Wanda Jackson, and many more. They all have one in common: some thirty ot even forty years ago they produced german language 45s. Hundreds of lesser known artists tried to woo the german audience with the same tactic. Most of these 45s were quickly forgotten, but they have now become sought-after and very expensive collector's items. '1000 Nadelstiche' is the first documentation of this little known phenomen. Here are the ridiculous lyrics, highly questionable phonetic pronounciations and some hugely unknown songs exclusively written for the german market.
Book contains loads of cool pics.

PSYCHOTIC REACTION - the US 60s Garageexplosion
A Garage Rock Special

Sonics · Bay Area Garage · Count V · Flintstones · Gonn · Texas Garage · Garage in the Movies · Blues Magoos · Pleasure Seekers · Elastik Band · Standells · Rationals · Tampa Bay Garage · Davie Allan · We The People
These in-depth and exclusive features - from the pens of top pop writers, archivists and historians - cover a broad spectrum of North American bands who have come to define the term "garage". Loooooong hair, Vox guitars, Farfisa organs, Beatle boots, tight Levis and a ton of snot and attitude - these bands invented the punk ethic 10 years before the word 'punk' was even being used.
From New York (The Blues Magoos) down to Florida (We The People); from Texas (Zakary Thaks) up to the North West (The Sonics, The Wailers); this is the first US garage reader to hit the shelves to date. Nobody has covered the U.S. '60s garage band explosion with such dedication and know-how before.

Mick Jagger was a fan!), WE THE PEOPLE (From incessant '60s garage punk to psych whimsy and gnarly fuzz rock). All these articles first appeared in the out-of-print Volume 1 series of Shindig!

SHINDIG! issue15
Psych, Garage, Beat, Powerpop, Soul, Folk...for people who want more
Shindig 15 is like a reversable raincoat, you can wear it two different ways.
Featuring two groups at the polar opposite ends of pop music, The Hollies and Ramones, Shindig! has decided to put them both on the cover... at polar opposites. It’s a two-way cover which can be displayed either way up.



The Hollies
“We’re about as psychedelic as a pint of beer wit’ lads!”
By mid-1966 THE HOLLIES were riding high as one of the UK’s most popular and successful bands. ‘Bus Stop’ was the latest in an unbroken three-year run of hit singles at home. It topped the charts in Sweden and Canada, became a huge hit in Australia, Norway and Germany and – crucially – was the first Hollies single to go Top
Five in the states.
The next two years would see the band – one of the most inexplicably overlooked and underrated of the decade – ditch some of their showbiz trappings and embark on a brave journey of experimentation that saw them become world-class songwriters, sonic adventurers in the studio and, ultimately, a unit too eclectic to survive.
ANDY MORTEN talks to guitarist TONY HICKS and drummer BOBBY ELLIOTT about 'the flower power bit'.



The Ramones
“We’re too real for radio. They play safe stuff that won’t upset anybody.”
1-2-3-4! THE RAMONES were the "bubblegum band gone bad" that stripped pop down to its barest bones, fed it on caffeine and sugar, invented punk and laid down the template for legions of future garage bands.
KRIS NEEDS got to know the guys well after covering their July 4th, 1976 Roundhouse gig with The Flamin' Groovies. A friendship blossomed and, in the first part of our two-pronged feature, Kris remembers what made The Ramones so special.
In the second part of the feature, American writer LARRY JAFFEE's previously unpublished 1985 interview with JOEY and DEE DEE RAMONE, where the guys discuss their favourite ’60s music, Rock ’n’ Roll High School and why they could never be famous in the USA.

SHINDIG! issue16 | magazine (english)
SHINDIG! issue16
Psych, Garage, Beat, Powerpop, Soul, Folk...for people who want more
Once again, in the Shindigverse there's room for everything (well, nearly). From Northwest-go-big-time garage/pop stars the Raiders to the pastoral jazzy-prog/pop of Canterbury's finest musos Caravan to the DIY powerpop of Shoes, our array of cover stars offer nothing less than a variety of styles to suit all tastes. Add in Irish blues-rock/pop/psych (Granny's Intentions), Jim McCarty ('im from The Yardbirds), the enduring psych odyssey of Gary Ramon and Sun Dial, '60s teen greats The Lemon Drops, tons on exciting new acts including Dead Meadow and Old Californio, lots of wonderful reviews and some stunning photos and you have to admit Shindig! is certainly no one-trick pony.


PAUL REVERE and THE RAIDERS
These guys may be viewed by the rest of the world as another great garage band, but in the States they were one of '60s pop's biggest teeny-bopper sensations. On the eve of a 3-CD set containing all of their Columbia single sides BILL KOPP speaks to MARK LINDSAY, PHIL “FANG” VOLK and JIM VALLEY about both the fun and seriousness of being a Raider.


CARAVAN
Along with The Soft Machine, CARAVAN were accidentally responsible for the much-feted "Canterbury Sound". To mark the release of a 4-CD retrospective of their groundbreaking early years, MARCO ROSSI talks to founder members RICHARD SINCLAIR and RICHARD COUGHLAN
about their legacy and music.


SHOES
Powerpop didn't die in the mid-70s. As soon as successful first wave acts like The Raspberries and Badfinger were winding down, the chiming guitars and vocal harmonies of
the mid-60s enjoyed a less heralded renaissance via a multitude of bands untouched by the initial throes of punk. BRIAN GREENE speaks with JEFF MURPHY of seminal Chicago DIY pop heroes SHOES.


SUN DIAL
Adored by even the most ardent psych purists SUN DIAL's 1990 debut Other Way Out was one of those records that impressed all that heard it – and will continue to do so thanks to the new expanded re-issue coming out this month. Yet Sun Dial have endured for the past 20 years laying down a template for loud guitars/new music, and almost getting famous along the way. JOHN REED speaks with GARY RAMON and RUSSEL BARRETT about Black Sabbath, garage-punk, shoegazing and sticking at it.


THE LEMON DROPS
For Illinois' most notorious nearly-men, the path to fame, notoriety and success was one paved with enough ill-fated accidentals to derail the ambitions of lesser players. TOM SANDFORD takes us on a journey into the candy acid meltdown of THE LEMON DROPS; through death, disbandment and missing drums, to psychedelic hits of every kind, if ever there was a group who should have made it, they were it. Garage Gods forgotten!


JIM McCARTY
Yardbirds and Renaissance man JIM McCARTY remembers the good times with LENNY HELSING! “SO who was best? Clapton, Beck or Page?”


FRANK ZAPPA
MARCO ROSSI talks with legendary director TONY PALMER about working with Ringo, Moony and shooting a maelstrom of controversy in one take for the debauched 1971 Zappa fest 200 Motels.


NEW MUSIC, NEW NEWS
RICHARD S JONES talks with psych lord JASON SIMON about DEAD MEADOW's new album Three Kings, and introduces California's aptly titled golden sons OLD CALIFORNIO. RICK MENCK bids farewell to ALEX CHILTON whilst MIKE FORNATALE waves goodbye to LEE FREEMAN of STRAWBERRY ALARM CLOCKS. Festival news. Vivian Stanshall's STINKFOOT opera returns. Shindig! beer! Screaming Apple Records. Psychedelic Poster film. BRIAN GREENE tracks down forgotten soul/folk troubadour and man-of-the-people LOU BOND.
