Fanatic. As you might be already aware, Wayne Kramer from the MC5 has passed away. The MC5 were an inspiration to countless bands and people since they came roaring to life in the 1960s. All three of their albums are great, High Time is my personal favorite. The MC5 was a shared favorite amongst the ranks of Black Flag. 

A good read with a lot of info on the MC5.

Grit, Noise, and Revolution: The Birth of Detroit Rock 'n' Roll by David A. Carson

There’s a new Charles Moothart album Black Holes Don’t Choke. It’s really great.

https://cfmmusic.bandcamp.com/album/black-holes-dont-choke

Last night I spent a good bit of time going through the letters and faxes Wayne sent me over the years. We first got in contact in 1983. He had some amazing stories. 

I’m trying to get information on the very  cool Jaguar 777 12”. Before it was sent to me, I thought it was a two song 7” when it is in fact a 12”. It sounds great. I’m hoping the two tracks are just the start. We’ll get at the other song next and hopefully with more information than we’re able to provide right now. 

We’ve got a great show for you. Have a cool weekend and stay Fanatic.

Fanatic! I hope  you had a  great week and you liked last week’s show. I’ve listened to all these tracks as a mix tape and I think we’ve got a good show. 

I’m really liking the Perfect Whip album. Thanks to Michael Mulholland for the heads up.

It looks like the recordings of These Immortal Souls, featuring the great Rowland S. Howard. They’ve been out of print for years. We have to wait until April. 

https://mute.com/these-immortal-souls/announce-long-awaited-remastered-reissues

A live recording of Can is coming out at the end of February.

I just got my Perfect Whip vinyl and will play it later tonight. Over the last several months, a lot of 7” records have come in and I’ve been trying to put a dent in them. For many years it’s been my favorite mode of listening. Hopefully, I’ll be able to clear the deck by spring. 

Tonight’s show is a good mix tape that we’re hoping provides a great soundtrack for whenever you have a chance to tune in. We’re almost done with next week’s show, it’s going to be a great one. Thanks for checking out the show.

Have a great weekend, what’s left of it, and STAY FANATIC!!!

Fanatic! I hope you had a good week with lots of music listened to. Apparently, if you’re in North America, you’re going to be in for some heavy weather of some kind over the weekend and into the week. If you’re looking at a lot of snow, I hope you’ve prepared yourself. 

I’ve been working away on writing projects and other tasks that keep me desk bound for hours at a time but I’m still getting some good listening in. I’ve been checking out a lot of 7” records. It’s probably my favorite medium. All activity to required, the interaction with the media, it’s like listening manually. I’ve put together a small set up at my desk where I have a turntable on my left and speakers in front of me. I can take a stack of 7” records and listen to them as I get work done. It’s great. I got out all my Bikini Kill 7”s and played them two days ago. It had been awhile. They’re great. I think there’s a cool reissue series of some of their records, they look really cool. 

Tonight we’ve got what I think is a well balanced mix through both hours. I’ve played the tracks from start to finish twice and I’m liking it. 

I’m glad we’re heading into another year of music together, thanks so much for tuning in. 

Keep listening to music and STAY FANATIC!!!

Fanatic! Interesting new year! At the time of this writing, we’re only a few hours out from show time. Earlier today, I listened back to all the tracks for tonight’s show and I think we’ve got a good mix to start the year together. Right now, I’m listening to the tracks for next week’s show, which Engineer X and I put the final touches on yesterday. Engineer Am Rock has the tracks so she’s ready. And thus, 2024 goes lurching forward! 

I’ve heard some music that will be coming out this year and while I’m not at liberty to disclose the details, I can say we’ve got some great listening to look forward to. It never seems to end! Wellllllllll…. It never seems to end because WE aren’t letting it end. The bands, the listeners—we’re all in this together. If the bands didn’t make all this great music we wouldn’t have anything to listen to but if the bands don’t have anyone listening, what’s the point? 

Some cool bands to check out:

Thanks to our good pal and sonic ally in Melbourne, PBS FM Radio presenter Michael Mulholland https://www.pbsfm.org.au/program/junkyard, we’ve got two very sturdy suggestions.

Perfect Whip - Jive Bullshit

Fanatic! While I’m sure there are more festive things to do than listen to a radio show, we thank you nonetheless for tuning in. 

So, another year is finishing. On behalf of myself, Engineer X and Engineer Am Rock, I’d like to thank you for checking out the show week after week. Although it’s a lot of effort to put the show together and bring it to you every week, it’s well worth it to keep the great conversation going, get cool bands and artists heard and hopefully remain inspired in these complicated and trying times. 

If all goes according to plan, we’ll be back with you next year! 

Until then, have a great end of the year and STAY FANATIC!!!

Fanatic! I hope you’ve had a great week and getting some listening done. Here are some of the records I’ve been checking out. 

Keiji Haino and the Hardy Rocks

https://www.discogs.com/master/2774300-Haino-Keiji-The-Hardy-Rocks-Youre-Either-Standing-Facing-Me-Or-Next-To-Me

This is the completely uncompromising Keiji Haino doing covers of Rock songs. It has to be heard to be understood. It’s quite intense. We played a track on our 07-22-23 show. 

SPLLIT album Infinite Hatch is really cool. 

https://spllit.bandcamp.com/album/infinite-hatch

We’ve got a track from it on our show tonight. 

A band called Pinch Points made a good record called Process.

https://pinchpoints.bandcamp.com/album/process

Our good pal and sonic ally, Michael Mulholland who has a great radio show in Australia on PBS 106.7 FM called Junkyard recommended a band to me called the Drin. They made a cool record called Today My Friend You Drunk the Venom. https://thedrin.bandcamp.com

A lot of new music on the show tonight. If you find yourself curious to hear more, Bandcamp will show you the way. 

Have a great holiday season and STAY FANATIC!!!

Fanatic! A lot of new music tonight. I’ve been trying to put a dent in all the new records that have come in since I was on tour. It’s a great problem to have. I was just gifted the 4LP 50th anniversary edition of the Vagabonds Of The Western World album by Thin Lizzy. Eric Bell era Lizzy, looking forward to checking this out. 

The coolest record I listened to over the last couple of days is by this band Checkpoint. 

Checkpoint - Drift LP

https://erstetheketontraeger.bandcamp.com/album/ett-109-checkpoint-drift-lp

You can go on Bandcamp and check out tracks if you’re interested. There’s a cool write up on the band. 

The new 7” by Alicja-Pop is really cool. 

https://alicja-pop.bandcamp.com/album/im-here-im-there-not-gonna-be-dumb

Larry Hardy, he of In The Red Records and I are currently co-conspiring on yet another cool Punk Rock release slated for next year. We just got the cover art confirmed and over the weekend, I’ll be nailing down some other details. Once we have a release date, I’ll tell you all about it.  I can tell you now it’s going to be great and we’re both very stoked to be doing this. 

So, tonight, we’ve got a lot of new music or at least music that’s new to us. It’s a great time for music right now but if you’ve noticed, I’ve been saying that for the last several years. It’s true! Independent music is really good right now. So many cool records, so many shows to go to. 

All the bands on our show tonight most likely have Bandcamp addresses so you can investigate further. I hope you do. 

Listen to as much music as possible and STAY FANATIC!!!

Fanatic! Here we are in the month of December. I’ve gotten some good listening in over the last few days. Some highlights include:

Les Rallizes Dénudés – Citta' '93

It’s a 3LP set of extremely well recorded damaging guitar playing by Takashi Mizutani.

https://lesrallizesdenudes.bandcamp.com/album/citta-93

Cherry Cheeks

The new album is really good. 

https://totalpunkrecords.bandcamp.com/album/cclpii

New Marnie Stern LP

The Comeback Kid. After ten years of silence Marnie comes ripping back. 

https://marniestern.bandcamp.com/album/the-comeback-kid

Minor Threat 7”

Unreleased tracks tracks available now on Dischord. This record is really cool. The band sounds great. This record was in the works for quite awhile. I was told about it when the project started out and have been looking forward to finally seeing this one come out. Stoked about this one!

https://dischord.com/release/195/out-of-step-outtakes

A lot of records have come in since I was on the road. I’ve got a lot of listening to do. I’m looking forward to it. 

Tonight’s show is a good mix of new and old, hopefully you’ll find it a good early December soundtrack. 

I’ve been thinking about what would define a December soundtrack. I like listening to music any time of course but in the colder months, it’s challenging. For many years, I’ve associated cold weather listening with being on tour. Usually, when I’m on the road, I’m out until about the third week of December so I’m doing  lot of play back in less than warm rooms. Sitting here now, I wish I was still on the road. For the next few weeks, I’m going to put a good dent in the records that have come in over the last several months. I’ll start listing what I got up to in these notes so you can keep track of me if you want. 

We’ve completed work on next week’s show. A lot of new music. Lots to look forward to! 

Until then, have a great weekend and STAY FANATIC!!!

Fanatic! The tour is done. It started in March of last year and went until a few nights ago. 260 shows in 27 countries. I wish it was starting over again. 

I’ve been listening to a lot of vinyl since I got back. The new Upchuck album Bite The Hand That Feeds is so good on LP. The more I play it, the better it gets. 

https://upchuckatl.bandcamp.com/album/bite-the-hand-that-feeds

J. Zunz (aka Lore from Lorelle Meets The Obsolete) - Del Aire. This is a great record. It came out last year but it’s not to be missed. A real treat on vinyl.  

https://jzunz.bandcamp.com/album/del-aire

New Melenas album Ahora is really good. 

https://melenas.bandcamp.com/album/ahora

A great record by Helen, The Original Faces

https://grouper.bandcamp.com/album/the-original-faces

If you were at any of the shows, thank you so much. It was such a great time. For awhile there, I thought touring wasn’t coming back again. 

I’ve got a lot of records to listen to, so I’ll be keeping busy but I’d rather be out on the road. 

A great show we’ve got lined up for you. We hope you like it. 

Have an amazing weekend and STAY FANATIC!!!

Fanatic! Hello from Stuart, FL. The tour is four shows from ending. https://www.henryrollins.com/tour

I’m not looking forward to it. I wish we were starting the entire tour, all 260 shows of it, over again. It’s been a great time and I’m sorry it’s coming to an end. I’m looking forward to getting some records listened to and catching up on some sleep but past that, I’d rather be out here. 

Rather than bore you with a bunch of internet addresses, I’m going to assume you know your way around and any of the bands you find interesting on tonight’s show, you’ll know to check them out on Bandcamp or otherwise to get more information. That being said, there’s at least a few albums we’re not pulling a track from that I thought I should bring to your attention. 

New Dion Lunadon album - Systems Edge

https://dionlunadon.bandcamp.com/album/systems-edge

New Split System album - Vol. 2

https://splitsystem.bandcamp.com/album/vol-2

I haven’t heard this one yet but I preordered as soon as I got the heads up. The first album was great and I’m looking forward to hearing this one. 

The Subsonics is a band I’d never heard of but I checked them out and got their records. Looking forward to digging in. https://subsonics.bandcamp.com/album/subsonics-good-violence

As far as our show tonight. A mix of new and old you’ll hopefully find to your liking. I thought starting with Einstürzende Neubauten’s Sehnsucht into Scott Walker would be a cool way to wade into the sonic fray. 

We’ve got next week’s show all ready to go, so we’ll check in with you then. Until next week, have a great Saturday night and STAY FANATIC!!!

Fanatic! 53F in Cheyenne, WY. The shows have been going well. We just wrapped out of the California shows and they were a great time. We’re over fifty shows into this leg of the tour. https://www.henryrollins.com/tour

We’ve got a great show lined up for you tonight. It’s a lot of music! I thought the mixtape concept would be good for the show. 

I hope you’ve been getting a lot of listening done this month. I’ve been trying but before a show, it’s not always easy to concentrate on music when I have a show looming but still I’ve been getting some good listening sessions in. I’ve got a lot of records waiting to get spinning when I get done with the shows later this month. I wish we could start the whole tour over again. It’s a drag when it all stops. 

Have a great weekend and STAY FANATIC!!!

Fanatic! Today we’re in sunny California. 76F currently, much different than when I last wrote you last week. 

Hard to take the tour is winding down. https://www.henryrollins.com/tour

The shows have been going well and the audiences have been great, which will make it hard to stop in a few weeks. 

I’ve been listening to the tracks for tonight’s show at the gym over the last couple of days. I think it’s a cool mix. Bandcamp has a lot of this music if  you find yourself curious to hear more. 

Soundcheck is looming. Have a great weekend and STAY FANATIC!!!

Fanatic! Hello from Chicago. Tonight I jump out of my tour and onto someone else’s. David Sedaris asked me to open his show here and of course I said yes. I’m going onstage for 40 minutes and then he’ll do the same. I have no idea what his audience is like and there’s a good chance I’ll bomb but I’ll give it my best. 

This is the tour I’m on. 

https://www.henryrollins.com/tour

TV Smith has one more night on his US swing

https://tvsmith.co.uk/gigs

Fanatic, tonight is a very special show. It’s Lux Interior’s birthday and we’re going to listen to not only a lot of Cramps music but also music that inspired the Cramps.

The first hour is dominated by the original mixes for the band’s first album Songs The Lord Taught Us. As a fan, I much prefer these mixes to the ones we got on the store bought LP. I hope you’ll like them.

Selfishly, my favorite part of the show is in our second hour. I found audio of the first time I ever saw the Cramps. It’s as great as I remember. 

I’m so glad Lux’s birthday landed on a Saturday so we could do this. 

I’ve seen a lot of great bands but getting to go to Cramps shows, I’ve never recovered. I wouldn’t trade those nights for anything. 

We hope you dig the show. 

Enjoy October and STAY FANATIC!!!

Fanatic! I’m in Virginia Beach, VA. It feels like it’s going to be a hot and humid day. Last night we were in Baltimore, MD, which was great. I’ve had so many good times there. Ian MacKaye and Joe Lally were there. 

We’re over 100 shows into the year and so far, things seem to be going well. I was hoping for more autumn weather but I think now that we’re heading south, it’s back to the heat. It was good while it lasted.

We have a great October mix tape for you tonight. We start both hours with the Damned. I think I’m going to have to put this play list into my phone and drag it to the gym with me today.

Birthday Girl. I’m glad this happened. There’s a new band in Washington, DC called Birthday Girl. I got their music several weeks ago. I just found out they’ve put the tracks on Bandcamp. Cool band.

Fanatic! A warm and overcast Saturday afternoon in Rutland, VT. The venue has a washing machine and dryer, so we’re all on laundry duty today. Road Manager Ward has a small turntable onboard, which affords us playback. We’re listening to a 1973 Don Cherry album he found today called Don Cherry & The Jazz Composer's Orchestra – Relativity Suite. I’ve never heard much 1970s Don Cherry, so this is great. 

Shows have been going well. We’re five in, I think. 

https://www.henryrollins.com/tour

I had an interesting listening experience yesterday preshow. I played one of those strange albums The Fall released in 1996 comprised out alternate mixes, outtakes and live tracks. They were Sinister Waltz, Fiend With A Violin and Oswald Defence Lawyer. All of them were released on Receiver Records. I wonder if it was Mark E Smith just handing over a bunch of unused tracks to Receiver and the label making the best of it. I haven’t heard these in a long time. I put on Fiend yesterday and rediscovered how cool it is. I’m going to have to check out one of the other two tonight. Recommended. 

For years, I’ve wanted to check out this ridiculous box set Robert Fripp released of King Crimson music years ago called The Road To Red. You can check out the contents here. 

https://www.discogs.com/master/628354-King-Crimson-The-Road-To-Red It’s several hours of live shows from 1974. I have a lot of them on bootleg CDs and LP but the official versions are bound to be quite an upgrade. I’m going to listen to a show a day. I’m four in so far and it’s been great. It’s pretty much the same set over and over but there’s a lot of improv happening and it’s King Crimson, so that’s good enough for me. 

The new Screensaver album Decent Shapes is really cool.

https://screensaver.bandcamp.com

Marnie Stern’s album The Comeback Kid isn’t out until November. It’s a long wait but will be worth it. I got an advance of the vinyl and it’s great. 

https://marniestern.bandcamp.com/album/the-comeback-kid

New Dion Lunadon coming soon. Systems Edge on In The Red

https://intheredrecords.com/products/dion-lunadon-systems-edge-lp?_pos=2&_sid=35079bf0a&_ss=r

There’s lots to look forward to. At this moment, I’m looking forward to a show at 1930 hrs. Into it!

We’ve got a great show lined up for you tonight. Details below. 

Have a great week and STAY FANATIC!!!
