My baby brother turns 60 today. Hopefully he has recovered from his surprise party last night.
As some of the readers of this Blog will be aware his music of choice is Rockabilly and Psychobilly. He's just about hanging onto that quiff but not for much longer I suspect!
Here are a few tunes he will hopefully like to help blow away the cobwebs.
Happy birthday Dave!
Stray Cats - Rumble in Brighton
The Shakin' Pyramids - Take A Trip
King Kurt - Destination Zululand
Welcome to the 142nd Saturday Shuffle and the first for the second quarter of 2026 - How did that happen?
First up are Alabama 3 with U Don't Danse to Tekno Anymore a track from their 1997 debut album Exile on Coldharbour Lane which quite frankly is the only one of their albums worth having.
Next we are going back over 60 years. It's Mannfred Mann making their debut on these pages with If You Gotta Go Go Now taken from Jon Savages 1965 - The Year the Sixties Ignited.
Stay With Me as we conclude in 1972 with today's cover stars and fellow debutants Blue Mink .
More decade defying Shuffling next Saturday
Alabama 3 - U Don't Danse to Tekno Anymore
Manfred Mann - If You've Gotta Go Go Now
It's the 1st of May today - the start of Spring and hopefully of good weather.
If you can take yourself away from the Maypole I have some mainly folky and pastorial songs for you today.
In years past I sometimes featured Imelda May on this day but I thought I would go for something more gentle as you could do yourself a mischief dancing around a maypole to her songs.
