Merchants of Sound: 5 May
Every Saturday from 6.30 to 8pm, with your hosts Bully Dux and Phat Kat
The record world was a completely different place in 1965. Re-issued on Beat Rocket Records, Shake it For Me is a compilation of independent rock n roll bands of the mid 60s from Minnesota, South Dakota and Indiana. The Embermen were just one of the many bands featured on this rare album on the original SOMA recordings. Dig it, yeah!
