Aww yeah! Pete Zaremba & Co.! I remember when Pete hosted that weekly show for I.R.S. Records that MTV used to air back in the days when MTV was full-on music videos 24/7.

Indeed JF. More familiar however. IRS show on MTV? Vague memory. I bet that was wild.

Harry, the show was called "The Cutting Edge". Pete Zaremba was the host. The show itself only lasted for 2 years. You can catch clips of it on YT.
  9:27pm
Domenico Schmenico:

I.R.S. The Cutting Edge was actually a pretty damn good MTV show sometimes hosted by Peter Zaremba, though I think there were other hosts later. Back in the '80s when I was cutting the early It's Happening episodes, someone called me "The Peter Zaremba of Pasadena"... I told Peter this later on, he cracked up over that one...

ALSO there was an episode where The Bangles hosted, riding around in a car with the two in the back playing guitars and all of them singing, and introducing other artists on the show. They walked around a place where old advertising billboards were stored at one point, also singing. That was a very cool episode and I am pretty sure I have it on tape, from my friend Darian S., who was a big Bangles fan then.

Yes, well that was an exploitation version of J.J. Cale, he went under the name J.J. Cale, I've seen that on a marquee. But that is how he got picked by Viva Records, I'm sure Leon Russell was involved with that LP, on a Snuff Garrett level... maybe even recorded at Leon's house

The line "Your love is like a rainbow" is from the song "Rock and Soul Music" from the Fish's excellent 3rd album "Together".

Oh, dear, really? I never heard that one, about the extra "J" in JJ Cale. Velvets played The Trip in May of '66 though... and the pic I've seen of Whisky a Go Go says JJ Cale so...

HI Lesley!!

Domenico Schmenico:

David Shortell... YES... "Rock and Soul Music"... that is the song they do on the Woodstock soundtrack... and it sounds very garage. It's funny because back in the '80s every Garage fan or Rockabilly or Mod absolutely HATED the whole idea of Woodstock. You couldn't have told them there was a Garage track on there, they'd laugh "as if"
Avatar 9:41pm
David Shortell:

Some good stuff never made it into the Woodstock doc. CCR, for example.

Typical Mod comment about Woodstock: "I don't know... too much mud."
  9:42pm
Jo Fuentes:

Ah some Dolls
  9:43pm
Domenico Schmenico:

YES... CCR's "Keep on Chooglin'" should have been on there instead of that Ten Years After thing which of course was popular with general Woodstock fans but not a fave of the Post-Punk set 'tall.
