OFF: Dodge Main, Deviants (was RE: hawkwind u.s. tour))

[Andrew Gilham]

>>ObCD: Dodge Main (Deniz Tek & Wayne Kramer!) - _Dodge Main_
>
>I've been lucky to see these guys about 5 times...
>Don't forget Gary Rasmuessen from The UP on bass and Scott Morgan from
>the Rationals on vocals.

Jammy bastard! :)  Was Deniz with them - on the Divine Rites site it said
maybe he wasn't?  Rasmuessen's not on the album, btw, the bass there is by
Paul Ill (who's also on the Deviants ixvi record - it's a very small
world).  Whatever, it's kind of a dream team!

>"Trouble Coming Every Day"...it's alright.  I prefer the earlier Deviants
>stuff, tho.

Am I missing any Farren/Deviants records from this list (the only one of
these I don't actually have is _Ptooff!_, not that I'm a kollektor or
anything :)):

Deviants:
Ptooff!
Disposable
The Deviants
Human Garbage

MF and the Deviants:
Screwed Up (EP)

MF:
Broken Statue (7")
Mona - the Carnivorous Circus
Vampires Stole my Lunch Money

MF's Tijuana Bible:
Gringo Madness

MF and Jack Lancaster:
The Deathray Tapes

Deviants ixvi:
Eating Jello With a Heated Fork

Guest shot:
Wayne Kramer's _Death Tongue_

Lyrics for other artists:
"Lost Johnny" (HW/Motorhead), "Keep Us on the Road" and "Damage Case" (MH),
loads of stuff for Wayne Kramer

(There's also a comp from the early stuff, the splendidly titled _Partial
Recall_.)  At this moment, I'd say my favourites are Human Garbage (live,
with Larry Wallis, Duncan Sanderson and Wayne Kramer) and Gringo Madness; I
don't spin the old Deviants LPs that often, but The Deviants (the one with
the lollipop-sucking nun on the cover) is pretty solid too, with party
faves like "The Junior Narco-Rangers" and "Black George Does It With His
Tongue" as well as lots of Paul Rudolph freakouts.  I always found _Mona_ a
bit stodgy, but I might have to give it a go...
