The Grindhouse Mix

Todays mix is heavy in violence… heavy in sex… heavy in gore… just plain heavy! No, not really, but it does rock! It contains music from the Grindhouse double feature Planet Terror/Death Proof. Excellent film, if I do say so myself. If you haven’t seen it, rent it now! It harkens back to the days of 70’s “grindhouse” double feature “B” movies, churned out at a relentless pace for not a lot of dough. It also has some tunage from other Quentin Tanantino/Robert Rodriguez films. See if you can figure out which films they come from. So today I give you a new PunkRick Production ~ The Grindhouse Mix.

Tracklist:

1. Jack Nitzsche – The Last Race

2. Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Titch – Hold Tight

3. T Rex – Jeepster

5. Willy DeVille – It’s So Easy

6. Eddie Floyd – Good Love, Bad Love

7. Smith – Baby, It’s You

8. April March – Chick Habit

9. Pacific Gas & Electric – Staggolee

10. Joe Tex – The Love You Save (May Be Your Own)

11. Eddie Beram – Riot in Thunder Alley

12. Tito & Tarantula – After Dark

13. The Tornadoes – Bustin’ Surfboards

14. Tito & Tarantula – Angry Cockroaches

15. Link Wray & His Ray Men – Jack the Ripper

16. Tito & Tarantula – Strange Face of Love

17. Dire Straits – Six Blade Knife

Enjoy.

When The Going Gets Weird…

     … The weird turn Pro. So spoketh the man I named my son after. Hunter S. Thompson. Gonzo Journalist and flavored just slightly over the edge of the abyss. THE role-model of youth everywhere, or at least those growing up in the Dark Ages (also known as the 70’s). This mix is inspired by the Good Doctor, as he was affectionatley known. It runs the gamut from Rock to Soul and ends appropriately enough with a dirge-like rendition of Home on the Range. Today, PunkRick Productions present… It Never Got Weird Enough For Me.

Have fun with it and post your album cover.

High School Dance

I have my good friend Donna to thank for being my muse for this mix. I went through high school in the early-mid 80’s. It was a weird time to be a teenager. The last vestiges of disco were almost gone, New Wave was big and Hair bands were on the uprise. My high school dances left something to be desired. I was just a goofy kid that really had no sense of timing when it came to dancing. I did have alot of fun, though. This is a tribute to all those crazy high school dances that I went to, oh so long ago. PunkRick Productions presents… Remember When… 80’s Dance Hits, Class of ‘86.

Requiem

     Most recently my friend Any Major Dude  did a series on all of the forms of Love. As I perused that series, it reminded me of my youth, and all that Love entailed. So I started thinking of the women from that time that had a major impact on my life, both good and bad. Our shared experiences make us who we are, for better or worse. I like to think that I came through that time on the upside. Todays mix is a tribute to then, a time when none of us really knows what we want. Requiem for a feeling long past its’ time…
