Bash On Pop, September 2020

Hi, Everyone!

It’s been a few months since my last column, but I always wait until the muse moves me…or something pretentious like that. Anyway, here are five discs I wanted you, dear reader, to know about, and hopefully purchase, so read on, if you dare! 😉

Bill Lloyd-Don’t Kill The Messenger (Whole In One; CD)

The Nashville “King of Twang” has been delivering top shelf power pop albums since the late ‘80s, but his latest may be the best thing he’s done since his debut, Feeling The Elephant. Classic Lloyd tracks like “Undone”, “I’ve Had Enough Of Your Love” and “Not This Time ‘Round” abound, while “Baby’s In The Mood” channels his inner Zevon, “You Got Me” is pure old time rock ‘n roll, and “KAKE’N’8IT” is as much fun as the title would suggest. But it’s the opening title track, with its warmth, chord changes and a hook that won’t quit, which steals the show! What more could one want??


Miracle Glass Company-MGC² (Self-Released; CD and LP)

Ever since I saw this young Edinburgh-based trio play IPO Liverpool a few years ago, I’ve believed that they had a shot to break it big, as their vocals, musicianship and attitude just scream out “success!” Their overall sound is a bit harder-edged than I’m accustomed to writing about, but those harmonies…kinda like a supercharged Status Quo without the boogie! Tracks like “BB22”, “Sweet Spot” and “Professional Noise” are exemplars, but the boys can do ballads with the best of them; “Golden Love,” with its America-esque harmonies and the epic “Morning Sun”, on which you can hear a pin drop in the first part, are top shelf…but “Sea Of Cortez” outshines even those, as its counterpoint-laden refrain is one of the best I’ve heard in quite awhile!


Mike Randle-Rough Mixes & Demo Pyxis Vol. 1 (Self-Released; CD)

The co-founder of the iconic L.A. band, Baby Lemonade, and guitarist for the legendary Love has released his first disc in many of a year, and this 7-song EP is a fine mix of rich, beautiful tunes such as “How Do I Get Close?”, “Miss Loucifer”, and “Twenty Years”, playful soft rockers like “You Let Me Down” and “Moana’s Town”, and the power pop “REVO”. Fans of Wondermints and Baby Lemonade will especially love this, as it’s redolent with cool chord changes and hooks. I very much look forward to Vol. 2!


Add caption
Kimberley Rew and Lee Cave Berry-Sunshine Walkers: The Best of Kimberley Rew and Lee Cave-Berry (KL; CD)

Yes, you know the names: Kimberley Rew of The Soft Boys and Katrina and The Waves, and Lee Cave-Berry, who has logged more gigs than a turbo-powered computer. This collection features both solo tracks and those by this dynamic duo, and it’s a fun, organic listen throughout. Fans of Dave Edmunds will love “The Dog Song”, “English Road” and “Yours Truly”, among others, while the late ‘70s discofied “Happy Anniversary” could have fit on Back To The Egg; “Flat Cat” is pure rockabilly goodness, and “She’s Still Got It” is a ska delight. There are also a few jangleholic tracks from Rew’s classic EP, The Bible Of Bop; throw in a nifty cover of The Troggs’ “I Want You”, and you’ll be well hooked on this disc. Among the luminaries playing on these tracks are Mitch Easter, Peter Holsapple, Glenn Tilbrook, and Rew’s Soft Boys mates, Robyn Hitchock and Andy Metcalfe!


Louise Goffin-Two Different Movies (Majority of One: CD and LP)

Ms. Goffin’s 10th album is a return to her Laurel Canyon roots, albeit with a modern touch; its cover art, drawn by her former Laurel neighbor, Joni Mitchell, is quite fitting. Two Different Movies definitely has that mellow, homemade vibe, at times not unlike her mom’s landmark, Tapestry. The opening cut, “Simple Life”, appropriately takes the listener back to a simpler, post ‘60s wind down; “Heart Attack” is a sexy, soulful rocker; “Oh My God”, arranged by Van Dyke Parks, has a lush, dizzying arrangement not unlike Parks’ Song Cycle; “Every Love Song” will coax you to dance without being obvious about it; and “It Started A Long Time Ago” channels Nilsson at times. A fine, diverse album with an array of fine feathered friends accompanying Goffin, such as Benmont Tench, Pete Thomas, the aforementioned Parks, and the Zelig of Pop, Fernando Perdomo!


Cheers, until next time,

David Bash

Blake Jones - The Homebound Tapes

I wish I were a wordsmith, then I could describe the emotion, that’s right, I said emotion, that the new Blake Jones EP from Big Stir Records elicits from me. Trust me, throw on your headphones, sit back and grab a Dr Pepper and just enjoy “The Homebound Tapes”, you will see what I mean. 

Is this a Power Pop album, no, it is not? What it is, for me, is a fantastic EP that has elements of Americana and maybe a little Skip Spence meets Laurel Canyon vibe thrown in just because. Heartbreaking and harrowing but stunning as well, Blake Jones with the help of Rex Broome as well as Blake's fellow Trike Shoppers, push all the emotional buttons. 

 “The Homebound Tapes” was written and performed during the 2020 pandemic and only clocks in at 18 minutes, but feels like a full length album. I wish there were more but I’m happy with what there is. Just grab a copy from Big Stir, your money and your time will not be wasted.

Librarians With Hickeys – Long Overdue 2020

I ordered the blue vinyl copy of the The Brothers Steve album #1 from Big Stir Records the other day. I had to get it on vinyl, its that good.

When the package arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see that Rex and Christina included a copy of the new Librarians With Hickeys disc aptly entitled Long Overdue. Needless to say, I was stoked. I put the album to the side and quickly loaded the new disc into my cd player and sat back and listened.

Long Overdue, the first full length release from this Akron based band and it does not disappoint. Containing sharply written songs that introduce their wit and personality, catchy hooks and its tight arrangements, Librarians With Hickeys have packed a lot into 12 short songs. There's not a weak tune to be found.

If you are a fan of jangly power pop from a band that has perfected their craft and deliver refreshingly simple songs that appeal to everyone, Long Overdue is what you have been waiting for, it’s fresh, energetic and fun, unlike much of the over-produced music available today.

Preorder your copy at Big Stir Records

It's Karma It's Cool - Woke Up In Hollywood


What is it about Woke Up In Hollywood by It's Karma It's Cool that I like so much?    
Is it the vocals of Jim Styring? They are contagious.  

Maybe the rock-solid song writing? The lyrics are clever and intelligent. 

I don’t know, I just can’t put my finger on. What I do know is that this is an infectious album.  I can’t stop listening to it. Woke Up In Hollywood just wants to get stuck in your head and put a smile on your face.

If you have not heard yet, I recommend you pick up a copy, throw on the headphones and enjoy it.
Thank you It's Karma It's Cool, this certainly an album I will be listening to for a long time to come.


You can get your copy Bandcamp or if you have to have the disc (like me!) get it at Kool Kat.

Go get it and enjoy it!
