Articles, Interviews, & Photos To Check Out:I truly hope there's nobody reading this page that doesn't worship at the altar of The Kinks. If you're an unbeliever, get out now. (I mean that. Now!) OK, if you're still here, I hereby give you permission to check out an interview with the band's original bassist, Pete Quaife. It got me wishing Pete would write his own book about The Kinks' experience. I get the feeling it would be the most straight-ahead view available.If you've ever heard Drop Out With The Barracudas you'll understand why I'm so nuts about them. On the Noise For Heroes web-site, Steve Gardner has posted a beautifully long, detailed interview with Jeremy Gluck. In there, you'll find just about everything you ever wanted to know about The Barracudas. (The latter page, by the way, includes a link to a terrific tale of one of the band's journeys written by Gluck himself.) PopNet has a short interview with The Sex Clark Five where at least half the time they're joking around to the point you're not sure if reality exists. Rather entertaining. The Fleshtones Hall of Fame includes an interview with drummer Bill Milhizer and vocalist Peter Zaremba, as well as tons more info about the band. Back in September, Gary "Pig" Gold contributed yet another genius article to the virtual pages of In Music We Trust with The Kinks Invented Alternative-Kountry. I usually like to give direct links to the interviews I list in this section, but Nardwuar's Menu Page has links to a whole bunch of stuff he's done. I'd originally planned to just mention one of the newer ones (with Henry Rollins), but you'll be so much happier if you look thru his list, bookmark the page and keep coming back. (The Rollins interview is currently right up top with a picture.) Here's another cool article on The Outsiders. Considering that they did a reunion tour a year or so back, I wish they'd try it just one more time and bring it my way. Hmm... Jon Weiss, howzabout hooking something like that up for the next Cave Stomp? Check out the Nuggets Chat with Dick Dodd (Standells), Mark Lindsay (Raiders) and Kim Fowley. For What It's Worth, indeed! You can also hear anthologist Lenny Kaye talk about Nuggets on the Fresh Air site by clicking on this link and choosing 10/15/98. OK, it's not exactly an article. Better yet, really, 'cuz it's three songs by The Woggles
in Real Audio, including two live tracks - Ramadan Romance and Tear Me Down - as
well as Sweet Tea (from the CD).
