Mal-One was one of the OG English punks in 1976-77. He wasn't a musician, he was a fan. And an artist. A gallery artist that did punk art. He did well. Recently he has become a musician. Singing (talking really) about what he witnessed in 76-77. youtu.be/L9jjJ3bx2AU?...

Rod Stewart is doing a "One Last Time" tour. Well, he is 81. He's doing a rock set of his hits on the tour, not the Great American Songbook stuff. Shame, kinda, his last album of standards made with Jools Holland was cool. Sentimental Journey, Ain't Misbehavin'... youtu.be/1wBkra2Q8Mc?...

The Shitdels play garage rock/punk with some gnarly guitar that would not be allowed in the mid-sixties. I reviewed Where's Your Head with barely any views because I was not careful enough with the YouTube curse word restrictions. I had to hear this on Bandcamp. youtu.be/h76d7CjZBng?...

The Rolling Stones slapped Elon Musk a touch on their fine song "Mr. Charm" on their new album Foreign Tongues, "Mad Mogul Mr. Musk," as Mick put it. I wish we all could be so vital at 80+. Damn good record. My favs are In The Stars, Hit Me In The Head and Mr. Charm. youtu.be/C1omLV_PiPw?...

Vampire Bats are an all-female psychobilly band from Japan. There is a touch of fifties b-movie horror punk as well, hence the band name. The originals are great like Witch Stomp. But I really like the two covers, Please Give Me Something and the Batman sixties TV theme. youtu.be/0iAnyrEDmnU?...
