technicolour dreaming

This week , we ranged from the music of 60’s bands such as the Velvet Underground and the Deviants through to recent releases by Dark Ocean Colors, Shearwater and Adelaide favourites Dieselwitch and Nekkro-Electro, with some Ride, Clinic, Nina Hagen and the Ramones and other cool stuff thrown in, plus a moog-flavoured Monkees tribute to the late Davy Jones. It was also the first appearance of Adelaide legends, the Zoot, as our “Band of the Month” for March with their classic version of ‘Eleanor Rigby’.... all brought to you by the Cat and the Brat.
