Pugwash has released six albums since its debut LP Almond Tea in 1999. Influences on the band's sound are regularly cited as including XTC, Electric Light Orchestra and Jeff Lynne, the Beach Boys, the Kinks, Honeybus and the Beatles, though Walsh dismisses the Beatles comparisons as "lazy"

Dreams, dreaming, and dreamy music is the order of the day.

You'll hear new and old jams from Once And Future Band, Honeybus, Riki, Yumi Zouma, Wax Idols, The Crabs, John Foxx, Cold Beat, and so much more. In between the songs, you will hear bits from the 1974 movie Mr. Sycamore, a wacky slice of vintage new age nonsense about a man who wants to become a tree.

The question on the table is not whether Honeybus, a band largely unknown outside the UK, were any good (they were), but whether they could have been as big as the Beatles.
PETE DELLO AND FRIENDS "Do I Still Figure In Your Life?" Into Your Ears (1971) Got Kinda Lost / Burger Cassette (2018) CS on Burger Records: http://burgerrecords.11spot.com/pete-dello-and-friends-into-your-ears.html LP/CS on Got Kinda Lost Records: https://www.gotkindalost.com/artist/pete-dello Originally issued in 1971 by Nepentha Records—presided over by Kinks/Troggs manager Larry Page—Into Your Ears is the sole full-length offering from Honeybus founder member Pete Dello (assisted by a coterie of close friends).The album is a wonderful, timeless work of incisive, plaintive folk-pop balladry and buoyant, idiosyncratic creations, led along by Dello’s honeyed voice (which eases effortlessly into falsetto) and expertly executed arrangements featuring minor orchestrations. Into Your Ears represents the zenith of Dello’s songwriting, comprised of primarily tunes written specifically for this project (supplemented by a few tracks intended for Honeybus which were re-cut for the occasion). The songwriting reflects a jovial playfulness, but also feelings of intense lovelorn longing, hope, wistfulness and moments that could serve as a great soundtrack to a break-up (with the brightness of delivery never making them ache with depression). Everything on Into Your Ears comes from personal life experiences, even if twisted through a unique prism, with the deep emotions, whimsical moments and orchestration that never clutters the arrangements all achieving perfect balance. But, above all, the songs resonate with a pure dedication to “pop” and beckon you to listen in repetition, until they’re at one with your very existence. There’s something present, timeless and at times nearly indescribable about this very special set of songs that can’t be pinpointed by simple equation. Widely regarded by Honeybus fans, ‘60s-‘70s collectors and anyone who’s happened into its beatific orbit, Into Your Ears is a lost classic deserving of further exposure. RIYL: Ray Brooks, Duncan Browne, John Cale’s Paris 1919, Ray Davies (The Kinks), Bill Fay, Nick Garrie, the early careers of Ralph McTell and Clifford T. Ward, etc.

Over at None More Twee, we usually talk about the latest and greatest indie pop around but for this mix, I went back to the roots of twee for a big chunk of bubblegum, added some soul, some crazed glam rock, a few novelty tunes (can never get enough of those) and a track from my favorite punk band, then mixed it up for maximum dance party effectiveness.1. Rick Springfield - We're Gonna Have A Good Time - This early 7T'z rocker comes from an album you need to track down called Mission Magic. I think I've started every mix of the past five years or so with this song.2. Andy Kim - You Got Style - AK may have been a total Neil Diamond wanna-be, but sometimes he equalled his idol. Like here, for example.3. Tommy Roe - Cinnamon - Nothing but love for T-Roe. He's the patron saint of NMT. One listen to this track and you'll know why.4. Geno Washington And The Ram Jam Band - Feeling So Good (Skooby Doo) - Super groovy cover of the Archies' classic by a guy who made some great bubblesoul jams but is also a trained hypnotist and Peter Noone's brother in-law.5. Sylvie Vartan - Garde Moi Dans Ta Poche - She totally destroys the Four Tops' "I Can't Help Myself" with a piledriver beat and some surprisingly tough vocalizing. Check the recent collection on Rev-Ola for more awesome Vartan sounds.6. Little Eva - Get Ready/Uptight - More than a one-hit wonder, Little Eva made some killer records and this is the best of them. Makes me wish someone had signed her to Motown or Stax.7. The Osmonds - Down By The Lazy River - Yeah, the Osmonds! Don't laugh until you hear this jam. It's cheesy but the good kind of cheese, the kind they give out as samples in grocery stores that you can't stop eating even though the staff keeps giving you dirty looks.8. Jacques Dutronc - Le Responsable - Dutronc is a heavy dude and when he gets down to rocking, he's gonna rock you for reals.9. The Messengers - That's The Way A Woman Is - Amazing bubblegum rocker on Motown of all places.10. The Equals - My Life Ain't Easy - Eddy Grant? Eddy Grant! The Equals have few equals when it comes to hard rocking bubblesoul. Few equals...geez.11. Lulu - Love Loves To Love Love - Lulu doesn't get much credit for tearing shit up but she really could. This track features some great Jimmy Page studio weirdness.12. Honeybus - The Breaking Up Scene - My heroes Comet Gain borrowed some of this song for "Villain" way back on Casino Classics. The Honeybus version has some hot guitar action and a footstomping beat. Which is weird because the rest of their output consisted of heartbreakingly beautiful orchestrated pop that's almost on par with the Left Banke.13. Mud - Tiger Feet - You haven't really lived until you've seen the Top of the Pops clip of Mud performing this song. It's like a four minute lecture on why rock & roll is so glorious, only it's way more fun than that. Even without the visuals this song should bring your party to a fever pitch.14. The Saints - Do the Robot - Sometimes people forget that punk rock could be a hell of a lot of fun. Most of the Saints tracks are as serious as death, but this song is a good time jam.15. Bobby Freeman - C'mon And Swim - It's the middle of winter here in Michigan but I reflexively reached for my swimsuit when this track came on. Bobby's just so persuasive!16. The Revillos - Scuba ScubaIf these guys had ever played on a bill with the B52's, it would have been one of the greatest nights in pop history. The only pairing I can think of that would be better is the Archies and the Banana Splits.
