Ready Steady A Go Go: Episode Forty-One

May 10, 2007 10:20 PM PDT

Back to the mixed bag. Some great tracks, some rare live recordings, some Leiber-Stoller tunes, an unlikely template for The Velvet Underground, and a band tries to turn a Broadway song into an R&B tune...and fails. Plus trivia as usual.

Podcast Summary

READY STEADY A GO GO:
FROM MERSEYBEAT TO MOD!

It's a program of nothing but THE BRITISH INVASION/THE BRITISH BEAT ERA (1962-66)...from the Beat bands to the Mod miscreants, and everything in between (Freakbeat, Pop, R&B, etc.).

Hits, flops, obscurities...Top tier artists, also-rans, overlooked bands...Simple rule: If it's British and 1960s and good, it's fair game!

PLAYLISTS:
A good number of people have requested that I post the playlists for the episodes of 'Ready Steady A Go Go.' However, I would prefer not to post them here and have them openly visible for all to see, as I'd like for there to be an element of surprise to the shows, like on radio (I personally have always enjoyed listening to the radio and being caught off-guard by having some song I didn't expect begin playing.) But...if you'd like the playlists, you can email me at readysteadyagogo@yahoo.com and I will be happy to send them to you.
