Technicolour Dreaming

 While starting with some 70’s New York rocking from Patti Smith and Harry Toledo, amongst others, and then dropping in some psychedelia, surf and garage, including America’s Dark Ocean Colors, New Zealand’s Tomorrow’s Love, a swirly classic from the Bee Gees 2^nd English LP, a scary surf story from the Barbarellatones and a pre-release taste of the new single from Paul Messis, the bulk of this week’s show featured a diverse bunch of local and Australian acts such as DieselWitch, the Skronks, the Molting Vultures, the Moodists and the Mynd Gardeners, and included a phone interview with Magic Bones who are headed our way as part of the launch tour for their new EP, before finishing with our current “Band of the Month”, the Sonics.
