There’s a few new things a LOUIE collector will want to pick up as they can…<\/p>\n

\"Ugly<\/p>\n

The first item is the latest UGLY THINGS magazine<\/strong><\/a>. Don Gallucci,<\/strong> the original keyboardist for the Kingsmen<\/strong> is interviewed in this magazine. In addition to playing piano for this iconic recording, Don was also the leader of Don & the Goodtimes<\/strong>, a progressive rock band known as Touch<\/strong>, and produced the second (Iggy Pop<\/strong> and the) Stooges<\/strong> album “Fun House.” He’s also been an A&R guy for Elektra <\/strong>Records, and did a lot of interesting things in his career. I interviewed him quite a few years ago in the early part of my documentary production, and found him to be a fascinating character. <\/p>\n

Long may you run, Don. I hope this article brings more attention to your musical talents! <\/p>\n

\"Mojo<\/p>\n

The second item is the June 2007 issue of Mojo Magazine<\/strong><\/a>, which has the cover story of “100 Records That Changed the World.” LOUIE LOUIE is rated as track #70, with an introductory phrase “Then: a slurred lurch of white teen R&B, deemed obscene by the FBI. Now: the lingua franca of rock.<\/em>” Spider Webb<\/strong> of the band The Horrors<\/strong>, contributes a paragraph about this iconic song.<\/p>\n

And what song would be considered the #1 most influential record according to MOJO? “Tutti Frutti” by Little Richard<\/strong>, followed by “I Want To Hold Your Hand” by the Beatles<\/strong>. Strangely, I saw no mention of “Rock Around the Clock” by Bill Haley and the Comets<\/strong>. Of course, all of this stuff is completely subjective, and absolutely open for debate. I’m sure if MOJO does another article like this next year, it’ll be an entirely different list.<\/p>\n

As usual, MOJO assembled another exclusive CD compilation of rare recordings for this magazine, featuring some tasty recordings. There’s no LOUIE on this CD, but Al Green<\/strong> does a killer job of covering “I Want To Hold Your Hand.”<\/p>\n

\"Dave<\/p>\n

Lastly, the third item is the latest album by the Dave Matthews Band<\/strong><\/a>. Thanks to Chuck Rubin<\/strong> of Artists Rights Enforcement<\/strong><\/a> (the company that helped Richard Berry<\/strong> recover partial ownership of LOUIE LOUIE), I found out that the latest Dave Matthews<\/strong> release, “The Best of Whats Around Vol.1” a best-of 2-CD collection includes a song entitled “Warehouse” that has a few phrases of LOUIE LOUIE, as noted in the official liner notes. This live recording was a from a show at the Alpine Valley Music Theatre, East Troy, WI on June 2, 2006. While this particular collection is available on iTunes, you can’t buy this individual track, unfortunately. <\/p>\n

Right now, I’ve only got one of these three items, so I’ll have to pick up the other two as I get around to it….<\/p>\n

ADDENDUM<\/strong>: As it turns out, the Don Gallucci<\/strong>-produced Stooges<\/strong> LP “Fun House” is listed as Mojo’s #36 most influential record, beating out the Kingsmen<\/strong>‘s LOUIE LOUIE! Imagine that!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
