While we're mourning the death of Canadian folk-hero Stompin' Tom Connors (more HERE), let's give him a punk rock send-off with The Hanson Brothers' (a.k.a. NoMeansNo) version of "The Hockey Song":
This is from that weird, short period where Virgin put out CDs by the Hansons, the Subhumans, Show Business Giants, and I think D.O.A. ("The Black Spot", with excellent drums by John Wright). Did any other videos come out from any of these artists?
Hey, thanks! That's an incredibly nineties-looking video, but a great song. I'm not the biggest D.O.A. fan and I forgot how tight that album was. Guess I'll try and dig it out again.
MRML is a blog about the devestating effects of culture: music, politics, comics plus etc. blah blah blah. At times MRML will post fine, unpurchasable three-chord obscurica (punk, pop-punk, new wave, mod, power-pop, gospel, reggae, hardcore, rockabilly, folk, country...whatever.) - - - - - - "The otherwise unavailable files in this blog are posted for a limited time and are intended for educational, non-commercial use.

Re: Re-Ups
MRML does not plan to restore all of the content lost in The Great Mediafire Gutting of 2012. Polite requests may be made in the appropriate section, regular commenters will get priority.
This is great! Two of my favorite things: hockey & punk :-)

ReplyDelete@Smicha1: D.O.A. has a "live" video for "Order" from The Black Spot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmZG4Eudywg
ReplyDeleteThere might have been one from The Show Business Giants around that time, but as for the rest, I don't think so.
