Hell-O my satanic friends! Do not listen to the evil biblical propaganda from above because you are undoubtedly worthy enough, daring enough, and ready for a second insane stroll through the devil's carnival. For a sinful walk through this hellish fair! You feel seedy enough to secure a second devilish ticket for Satan's fiendish ghost train! Escape your boringly sizzling purgatory and come, hurry up and step in... come aboard, take a seat, because Satan is the only one who really knows how to have a hell of a time. This place is teeming with Azrael's many seductions: Only here, with the devil, will you meet provocatively lovely ladies with sinfully luscious lips and flashing eyes that will tempt, then blow your mind. Only here, with Satan, can you sip the diabolic drinks for free that reflect the malicious moonlight. Only here, with Lucifer, can you feast on promising satanic dishes to delight the depths of your taste buds. And only here, with Satan and his drunken engineers, they will again provide "legions" of breath-taking Gadara-wagons for you, lightning-fast hot-rods, arrow-fast black trains to take you straight to hell! You only need to be prepared to bear the consequences... If you are not a spoilsport! All the artists gathered here can sing a song about it... From Hell with Love, Saint Satan, Old Nick. Compiled by Emmerich Thürmer. Features Gene Vincent, Cliff Carlisle & The Buckeye Boys, Cowboy Copas, Frankie Lane, The Louvin Brothers, Johnny Bond, Johnny Tyler, Roy Acuff, Lefty Frizzell, Don Reno & Red Smiley, Wade Ray, Sonny Burns, Joe Carson, Gene 'Bo' Davis, Jessie Floyd, Anita Carter, Johnny & Dorsey Burnette with The Rock`n´Roll Trio, Marty Robbins, Billy Barton, Johnny Horton, and Harry Choates.

Buzzsaw Joint was born of a club offering Londoners the chance to revel in the sounds of good ol' trashy rock n' roll in all its vintage vinyl forms. Club top-cat, Fritz, then took the primitive buzzsaw sounds online with a series of savage Mixcloud mixes created by record fiends from all over the globe. Now, the high-octane energy of Buzzsaw Joint has manifested into the physical form with a run of compilations on Stag-O-Lee. Get your ears around the wild n' weird sounds of the extraordinary and inimitable Buzzsaw Joint! There's something goin' on down here in these parts. It's put a buzzing in my head, a thumping in my heart. Buzzsaw Joint is back with a fifth cut and this time a Swedish selector wields the blade. DJ Sophisticated Savage first began sharing his wares in a Stockholm Tiki bar, which explains the raft of exotic sounds found on this compilation. But that's not all, add rock, roll, R&B and soul to the list. What's consistent from start to finish is the quality and obscurity of the selections. Open your ears wide and enjoy the ride. 16 tracks recorded between 1957-1962. Features Bill Springer, Stick Evans, Herb Zane, The Starfires, The Kingston Trio, The Don Schraier Rocktet, The Metallics, Blues Blenders, Jimmy Uke and his Islanders, The Demons, Jimmie Raye, Doodie Woo, Melvin Smith, Rhythmaires, Ray Johnson, and The Scholars.

Here's Dusty Ballroom's second set of sides -- a rather eclectic, swingin' blend of some 1940s jump blues, '50s exotic mambo, kinky doo-wop, wild Eastern surf and Hawaiian Rock n' Roll, a coupl'a burlesque instrumentals, and even a bit of groovy twist and soul. Or as Harvey summed it up so neat: "Anyway You Wanta!" This record is part of an on-going series dedicated to some often over looked golden age dancefloor thrillers. Stag-O-Lee dearly hope you dig this as much as they do and perhaps you will tune in on the next volume as well. Elmo Lewis is part of the Dusty Ballroom Collective, shakin' the Berlin analog music scene since 2008. As mentioned on Volume 1 (STAGO 120LP, 2018), over time you need to give nods and winks to the staff of several venues, lots of live artists wonderfully dedicated to old music, a few select DJs and of course those jumpin' and jivin' cats and kittens oddly enough returning to our all-nighters -- you all rock and roll! For the present selection, Elmo wishes to especially thank Adam, Laura, Nathaniel, and Franziska for their ongoing support to dig in the dust and helping keep the vibes up and the time tunnel's eyelid open. Features Yma Sumac, Stefi Akos, The Bonnie Sisters, The Chips, Harvey Fuqua, The Quarter Notes, Sounds Incorporated, Ted Heath & His Orchestra, Puddle Jumpers, Slim & Slam, Louis Jordan & His Timpany Five, Eartha Kitt, Jay Epae, Lil Anthony & The Imperials, Mel Tormé, Ron Goodwin Orchestra, and Barney Kessel.

It was neither a "stormy Monday", nor "a similar bad Tuesday", when the Retrograph got a call for doing the artwork of old pal Little Victor's "Lo-Fi Recordings" vinyl platter for Stag-O-Lee. They were in touch and shortly after, the idea of compiling weird stuff for "the 5th season" was born. It would have been way too easy concentrating on titles with "Ghost", "Spook", or "Devil" simply in the titles of often very boring and only fast or unbelievable lame tracks, so they went ahead doing something more subtle and special, spanning the decades from the 1920s through the 1940s in a very wild manner. At last, they kicked the term "Halloween" as it should be played the whole year through and every track is solid sending stuff for sophisticated Lindy Hop, Shag, or Balboa-dancing. It was so much fun digging through tons of old 78 rpm records, recording lots of material, and listening to them over and over again, kicking out, taking in, discovering stuff that was unheard over the last years and seemed sleeping til dawn. Then came the artwork and Stag-O-Lee wanted to do something special here as well, so they have taken an old Vocalion shellac sleeve from the '30s as a base for their own needs, trying to preserve the feel of old records from about eight decades ago. It is a nice anachronism in a time, where it is possible, to simply press a button on the telephone to make you hear whatever you like, almost everything and everywhere. Hopefully, there will be still lots of black holes in the world wide web in future. Features Fats Waller & His Rhythm, Count Basie Orchestra with Jimmy Rushing, The State Street Ramblers, Artie Shaw Orchestra with Helen Forrest, Sidney Bechet with Noble Sissle's Swingsters, Teddy Foster And His Kings Of Swing, Benny Goodman with Jack Teagarden, Woody Herman Orchestra, Llyod Smith's Gut-Bucketeers with Jabbo Smith, and Georgia Gibbs.

It's Saturday night in Berlin and the Hoochie Krew is stirring it up. DJ Don Rogall surveys the crowd, takes a sip of beer, and slides a 10" screamer onto the deck. As the scruffy yowl of a guitar unites with an insistent upbeat, a man in a beret shouts into a mic, speaking in tongues, transported. Go-Go girls in leopard-print bikinis undulate to the wail of a sax. A sultry showgirl appears like a mirage and peels off a crystal-crusted glove to whistles and whoops. It's a juke joint, a barrel house, an alternate time and dimension, with the whole room flailing in giddy unison, spirited into that raw, earthy, elemental rhythm. That is the Hoochie Koo. This is the first volume in the Hoochie Koo series, the soundtrack to Berlin's best club night! Features: The Satintones, Clem Sacco, The Coasters, The Sherwoods, Hoochie Krew, Roger King Mozian, The Latins, and Robot.

Multiple award-winner guitarist, harp player, songwriter, singer, and producer Little Victor Mac aka The Beale Street Blues Bopper is back after eight years with his ground-breaking album Deluxe Lo-Fi. The record , produced by Victor, features Kim Wilson of The Fabulous Thunderbirds (Muddy Waters, Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, Cadillac Records), Steve Lucky (Blues Persuaders, Johnny Copeland, Spin Doctors, Blues Traveler), Carl Sonny Leyland (Chuck Berry, James Cotton, Louisiana Red, Lowell Fulson), Jo' Buddy (Gene Taylor, Junior Watson, Fred Kaplan), Big Jon Atkinson ( John Primer, Dave Riley, Willie Buck, Alabama Mike), Brent Harding (Social Distortion, Deke Dickerson, Mike Ness), Tomi Leino (Taildragger, Bob Corritore, Trickbag), Harpdog Brown, Jordie Edmonds, and other great musicians. Little Victor believes lo-fi is the new hi-fi and he explores all types of lo-fi sounds, from slightly lo-fi to ultra lo-fi, and the album thus demonstrates a wide range of styles from '50s rockin' blues to raw late '50s/early '60s R&B and soul, and from pre-war blues to blues boppers; there are a lot of danceable numbers on this album. Victor even goes back to his rock and roll roots with a fun Little Richard-type of song. He tried to make this new opus sound like a collection of vintage scratchy obscure 45s and 78s. Little Victor claims this is the best album he has done since the Back To The Black Bayou (2009) and features some of the best songs he ever wrote and also some of his best performances as a vocalist and guitarist.

The second volume of the The Weekend Starts Here series deals exclusively with the popcorn genre. Popcorn is a style of music and dancing first established in Belgium in the 1970s and 1980s. The style includes a wide variety of mostly American and British recordings of R&B and pop music made between the late 1950s and mid-1960s, often relatively obscure, and characterized by a slow or medium, rather than fast, tempo. The popcorn music scene first developed from dances held at the groove discotheque in Ostend, where mid-tempo soul and ska music played by DJ Freddy Cousaert became popular in the late 1960s. In September 1969, a café, De Oude Hoeve, opened in a converted farm barn at Vrasene near Antwerp, and began holding dance competitions on Sunday afternoons. Soon up to 3,000 people began attending each week, dancing in a "slow swing" style. De Oude Hoeve was later renamed popcorn and the special genre has its name. Later on, the DJs messed up a perfectly fine recipe by adding all kinds of pop tunes as long as the tempo was right. This 10" however features 12 pure popcorn groovers from the "golden era". Features Ann Cole, Jack Costanzo, Milton Trenier, Ray Smith, Nappy Brown, Danny Rivers, Johnny Copeland, Al Perkins & Betty Bibbs, Eugene Jefferson, Chuck Bowers, Clarence Daniels, and Lew Conetta. Edition of 500.

Brought up on the radio shows of the legendary rock n' roll DJs, the moondogging Alan Freed, Mad Daddy and, later, the ghostly Ghoulardi, it was hardly surprising that The Cramps' Lux Interior and Poison Ivy began trawling the thrift stores for juvenile delinquent tunes, lip curling bad boy rock n' roll, strange exotica, bizarre novelty 45s, dysfunctional doo wop, psychedelic weirdness, and instrumentals made by madmen. In America in the 1950s and 1960s there seemed to be small town versions of such vinyl madness everywhere that, by the 1970s were remaindered and to the majority of people unwanted. To the fledgling Cramps this was nothing short of heaven. The duo filled their house with novelty memorabilia, schlock horror furniture, and a record collection to die for. Lux eventually gravitated to his own Purple Knif Radio show and the Cramps delivered their versions of some of the stuff they'd found. The duo name-checked many a 45 along the way and seeking them out and sampling their eccentricities is nothing short of mind-blowing. This 24-track collection positively effervesces with eccentricity. Again the release is divided into four themes: The Rock`n´Rollers, New Dance Trend, Instrumentals, and The Mad Daddies. Every track pirouettes dangerously and at times haphazardly around the expected. These are songs for strange times by what can definitely be considered strange people. Gems and nuggets that sparkle even more bright in today's manufactured music maelstrom. The population of Badsville welcomes you aboard. Includes tracks by Gary Link & the Rock-a-Fellas, Buddy Starr & the Starliners, The Saints, Jamie Coe, Bo Toliver & His Timers, Dossie Thunderbird Terry, The Vocaleers, Celestine, Young Jessie, Creel Sisters, The Phaetons, Burt Keyes with Teddy McRae & His Orchestra, The Downbeats, The Stereos, The Ramblers, The Storms, The Renegades, Nightmares (Jimmie Maddin Orchestra), Don Johnston, Jivin' Gene and the Jokers, Freddy Montell, Terry Corin and Her Boyfriends, and Mr. Undertaker.
