UGLY THINGS #46
This time: THE EQUALS, the dynamic multi-racial London group famous for songs like “Baby Come Back” and “Police on My Back,” but whose catalogue runs much deeper, as their lengthy interview with lead singer DERV GORDON explains.
Also featured this issue, Curt Boettcher’s innovative folk-pop group THE GOLDEBRIARS, Southern California biker rock badass SIMON STOKES, THE BYRDS, THE BALLOON FARM (A Question of Temperature), pre-Dictators ‘70s rockers TOTAL CRUDD, Harvey Kubernik’s examination of BOB DYLAN’s John Wesley Harding album (which turns 50 in December), occult rocker GEOF CROZIER, Texas-to-California garage rockers THE VISIONS, New Jersey’s MODS and the mysterious Revelation VII label, and a mad interview with the late, great CAPTAIN BEEFHEART.
Also they reveal the 12 “rejected” tracks from Lenny Kaye’s original NUGGETS compilation, plus the FLAMIN’ GROOVIES saga continues into the “Shake Some Action” years and, of course, there’s their acclaimed, info-packed reissue and book review sections. (152 pages)
