The Revolutionary Freaked Out Fuzz Club Paul Fuzz DJ set list For the sake of my own sanity ( & and maybe one or two of you might be interested too) I've decided to record here my set list from last night's Revolutionary Freaked out Fuzz Club, the monthly 50s/60s psyche/blues/funk night I run with a couple of friends down at the City Screen Basement Bar in York...I drink too much Stella and my set is always a mixture of 'on the fly' making-it-up-as-I-go-along DJing and semi-planned stuff, ie the Beatles medley, so by the time the next Fuzz Club come 'round I've forgotten what I played, what worked & what didn't etc. So I figure if I collect my thought here it'll help me next time.

So...making their debut on the Fuzz set list were Black Sabbath's The Wizard (there's always one song that loads of people come & thank me for playing, and The Wizard was definately this Fuzz Club's HIT) , Can's Halleuwah (a phenonemal song, don't know why I've not 'spun' it before), Hawkwind's Hash Cake 77 (not really a floor filler to be honest, but groovy in a I'M FLYING THROUGH THE COSMOS way...sounds remarkably like early Verve...don't think I'll be playing it again), Chicago's I'm A Man & Augustus Pablo's East Of The River Nile (brooding oragn/vibes/melodica heavy dub reggae instrumental, one of my ALL TIME TOP 10 RECORDS). Noticeable by their absence were James Brown & Captain Beefheart (who I almost always play something by), and Booker T & The MG's Green Onions (possibly the first time I haven't included this in my set at the Fuzz Club, another ALL TIME TOP 10 RECORD).

The Kingsmen - Louie Louie
Neil Armstrong - "One small step" dialogue

Louie Louie is the greatest song in the whole world. The bit after the guitar break when they come in wrong and the drummer cobbles together a rubbish fill to get them back on track is possibly my favourite moment in the entire history of recorded popular music. A key text of 20th Century American-trash-pop culture.  ¶ 4:54 AM
