Part 28 in the 7″ played alphabetically series on Gulls Window Circus. Dots and Bilal & Nikki Jean start us off out of order with a Squeeze cover. Gerty Farish and The Dots do Kraftwerk covers. Fuchsia does a Pink Floyd cover, which is funny, as last week The Dots did one too. A band Gulls Window Circus loves the heck out of (Gilded Lil) have a great track, also luvin the Droogs, Unnatural Axe, Gaunt, Generics, and Gerbils tracks as well as the Girls At Our Best one, which has the harshest cold stop ending I can recall.

Part 27 in the 7″ played alphabetically series on Gulls Window Circus runs from Fabric to Furtips, with (as usual it seems) a slight side-trip into bygone letters to catch up with new finds. One such side-trip is the final Ed Gein’s Car single, which sees them expand their sound palette, and predicts later Scott Weiss bands such as Iron Prostate and Oscar And The Pidgin Sisters. A joy to hear the fist Flying Nuns – the Boston band, not the NZ label – single. All 6 singles in the For The Love Of Jesus series are played and sounds pretty darned fine. NYC babd 4 Skins – no relation to the UK Oi band, are here. New French music from Fotomatik, Gulls Window Circus favorites Further, and the inimitable Free Design.

Today November 2 5-7pm ET on www.wzbc.org or anytime on www.gullswindowcircus.com – Part 20 in the 7″ played alphabetically series on Gulls Window Circus finds us starting with the elusive East Village and running through the absolute institution The Ex. As usual, plenty of bands that only released one 7″ in their career, though selection cares not for that, it only favors the best tracks. E. Coli has been a fave of mine for a long time, but I only recently discovered that the three 7″s they released all have different versions than the tracks on their lone LP. The Ecstatics is the Long Island band that introduced the world to Spike (D.R.I) and John Ceparano (Stargazer Lillies). I love the track by Eighth Route Army, had forgotten how jazzy and different The Elevators were, continue to draw blanks when attempting to discover information about the band Emma, delight in hearing my college friend Jim Fletcher in Erratic Sculpture, love the Essential Bop track and like both covers in this show (The Elevator Drops and Even As We Speak do Buggles and New Order respectively)

Part 19 in the 7″ played alphabetically series on Gulls Window Circus continues catch-up on the letters A-E, which started in 2018. I had so much fun with this one – I think there is a certain rhythm when you play nothing but 7″ singles – same as a 12″-only show or LP tracks show, each have their identity. There are many one-single wonders in this show, which I point out as I introduce each. Special attention to: The Blackouts, Broadcast (not the UK Broadcast, this one is from Kansas), The Desert Wolves, DIAMONDS (almost Echo & the Bunnymen epic in reach), Domino Rally With Magnus Lawrie (Urusei Yatsura is the backing band), fond Boston history with Dub 7, and sublime closer East River Pipe.

Part 18 in the 7″ played alphabetically series. This week we continue the catch up started in #487 (continuing next week as well), where we play all the singles in A-E that were obtained since the series first started several years ago. I love Edwin Collins cover of the Vic Goddard track Won’t Turn Back. One of the bands from #485 ‘book a show in 1995′ series returns with an earlier 7″ (Citizens’ Utilities) that sounds real good. Scottish band The Commercials spun a bit like Scars on their lone 7″ 16 Again And Again. The Clouds sound great on their 1987 single, as does Billy Childish on the CTMF 7″. Tom Croose give a singular re-edit of a Fleetwood Mac song, and Dave Davies almost sounds like Mott the Hoople. Felt’s Lawrence closes the show with the awesome It Fell Off The Back Of A Lorry – EVERY song has its story – listen and love.

This was a live in-studio show created for the 2021 WZBC (Boston College) fundraiser. Gulls Window Circus listeners know I like to break every two songs and talk about what is going to play next. In this show I am joined by my friend Chris Marstall and together we talk after EVERY song, and there is a lot more talking than usual. My apologies for all thew calls-to-action that are fundraiser related, but there are lots of good songs and insights contained within.

Part 17 in the 7″ played alphabetically series which started February 2018 and has sporadically run since. The next few episodes play catch-up on A-E, which have already been covered in earlier shows, but which now have many more candidates than were available when those early shows were recorded. The songs that keep coming back to me from today’s show are by Action Suits, Alternate Learning, The Anemic Boyfriends, Benett, The Blue Stars, Tracy Bryant, and Capri (who to my surprise sound a whole lot like a band I like lots, The Farmer’s Boys). Love the Ash cover of Helen Love track Punk Boy. ALL the tracks could be singled out as faves.

Part 2 of the Book a show in 1995 special, continued from last week. Gulls Window Circus brings you to 1995 as a booking agent evaluating singles in order to book a show. This week covers 1 hour of national bands and 1 hour of local (Boston-area) bands. All tracks are 7″ vinyl, spun in real time on a turntable. The Toothpaste 2000 track deserves the cover star status is has been given, but many other teats lie waiting for your discovery (Tractor Hips, Überhund, The Accidents, Jumprope, Sextiles). Amazing cartoonist Rob Rege’s Trollin Withdrawal is here, as well as projects by folks mostly known from other bands, such as Sydra = Mel from Sugarbitch and Vistory At Sea, Ambulance Driver = Marc from Spore and Sunburned Hand Of The Man, and Lee Fisher, subject of Spore song of the same name, Punchcutter = Ayal from Spore.

With a nod to time-traveling author Paul Levinson (The Plot To Save Socrates) Gulls Window Circus brings you to 1995 as a booking agent looking to book a show in 1995. This is a 2 week spacial, with 3 hours of national bands and 1 hour of local (Boston-area) bands. All tracks are 7″ vinyl, spun in real time on a turntable. Programming this show was a fun surprise – there are many tracks that sound great today, even if they barely found their audience when they were made.
