Yes. August 16th, 2017.
It’s that time of year again. To which many, many out there will cry…
Why Elvis?
I mean, Why should anybody, ANYWHERE care anymore?
Well, in a word or 984 I believe, here’s Why. Ready?

Whilst toiling away in the dead of last winter for Harvey Kubernik’s grand new
1967: A Complete Rock Music History of The Summer Of Love book – Page 175 should bring back memories to Toronto-area readers in particular – I made sure to keep the Pig Player fully loaded with this specially time-worthy setlist…

As bizarre as even I still consider this lil’ factoid to be, Yours Quite Truly honestly did spend the majority of the Reagan administration touring Canada’s hepper lounges and ski resorts as one-fifth of the one and only (…ah-hemm: but AUTHORIZED, I’ll have you know) Beach Boys “tribute” act known as Endless Summer.
So there!

GARY PIG GOLD is RIDING THE WILD SURF – JAN BERRY and the Birth of West Coast Rock
Posted in Opinion, Review with tags Beach BVoys, Brian Wilson, DBAWIS, Don't Believe a Word I Say, Gary Pig Gold, Jan and Dean, Jan Berry, Mark A. Moore, music videos, radio, Records, segarini, Surf Music, The L.A. Sound on April 24, 2017 by segarini
There’s Brian and his Beach Boys, most obviously. Then there were Crosby, Stills, Nash and sometimes Young, those Eagles, and my own personal favorite Turtles, Byrds, Mothers of Invention and possibly even Runaways. Not to mention Lindsey Buckingham’s Big Mac.
GARY PIG GOLD AND THE AMAZING HEAVY METALLOID MUSIC

They’ve been called The Greatest Band You’ve Never Heard, the Ultimate Cult Group, Hamilton’s deepest Underground legends and, consequently, Canada’s best-kept-ever musical secret. Nevertheless, you could find Julian Cope spinning their music in England, Steve Wynn collecting their records in L.A., and Thurston Moore still hunting down original artyfacts whenever he traversed the Toronto area. Why, even our esteemed socio-musical colleague Bob Mersereau boldly placed their Cyborgs Revisited at # 36 in his Top 100 Canadian Albums book (strategically right between Leonard Cohen and k. d. lang).

Bob Dylan duly dumped about another thirty-seven (at last count) albums in our laps last year, while on much the other hand the vast majority of my aural Good Times! during oh-16 came courtesy of Micky, Peter, Michael and Davy. Nevertheless, there still remained room on the Pig Player for the following splendid, purely alphabetically-listed items as well …which you should all be playing too if you aren’t already:
