We were joined on Technicolour Dreaming this week by Isomer’s David Tonkin (and his
daughter Lara... at age 7, possibly our
youngest interviewee yet!) who came in to promote his latest project, the debut
CD by Bordel Militaire, a collaboration with
a couple of Melbourne experimental /electronic /noise /punk musicians plus a
few guests, including Boyd Rice. As well as
playing a few songs from the album, David also
‘guest-hosted’, so scattered through the show were songs by such diverse
artists as Scott Walker and Les Baxter through to Sabbath
Assembly and Areyfu. Of course we
also featured our regular psychedelic content, beginning with the Beatles and followed by the likes of a classic
single by Hearts & Flowers, an early Bee Gees number [featuring the late Robin Gibb] and a song from the
Higher State’s new album, as well as
a dash of punk from the Slimeballs and early
DouglasP band Crisis,
plus lots more before we concluded with the
Lovetones, our current “Band of the Month”.
