From Dusk Till Dawn's Badass Bros in The Shady Bunch!





Welcome to Part 2 of my New Year's special
introducing the ten newest members of
the Shady Bunch deejay team here on
S-P-M-M Retrosonic Radio. In Part 1
last Friday you met Jimmy Berluti of
The Practice, Patty Solis-Papagian
of Goliath and Kim Wexler of Better
Call Saul... along with Daisy Skye
from Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
and veteran Wibbage radio personality
Joe Niagara. Today five more stars are
ready to get behind the mic and start
entertaining you. Time to meet them!

(COLD SHOW OPEN)


"Breathless" - Jerry Lee Lewis
(Mar./Apr. 1958, highest chart pos. #7 Hot 100,
#10 Cash Box, perf. on Feb. 14, 1958,
ep. of The Dick Clark Show)

The Killer - Jerry Lee Lewis - leaving you breath-uh-luss
and kicking off the show performing his top 10 hit
on Valentine's Day, 1958, on Dick Clark's
Saturday Night Beechnut Show.


Hi, we're The Gecko Brothers, Seth & Richie, stars of the Netflix original
From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series. By night, we fight vampires south of
the Texas border in Mexico. By day, we're spinning records as new
members of The Shady Bunch deejay posse here on S-P-M-M.




(SETH GECKO)

Our new Shady's Place radio show is
called Nothing to Lose featuring
the greatest sounds of rock & roll,
 rockabilly, psychobilly, black hat
outlaw country and the
rock 'n' roll revival.

CLICK TO START
THE VIDEO NOW!

We play tunes with 'tude and here's
another - Bob Vidone And The
Rhythm Rockers with their
rockabilly screamer-- "Untrue!"


"Untrue" - Bob Vidone and The Rhythm Rockers
(Feb. 1959, B side of "Frankie and Johnnie")




(RICHIE GECKO)

You just heard two dynamite discs -
The KillerJerry Lee Lewis, doing
"Breathless," a single that was hot
on the chart in the spring of 1958,
and a killer B "Untrue," by those
rockabilly wild men Bob Vidone
& The Rhythm Rockers, released
a year later in '59. If you dig what
we have to offer then BOLO -
be on the lookout - for the first
installment of Nothing To Lose
with The Gecko Brothers - Seth
& Richie - starting later this year
on S-P-M-M Radio... where
the rock rolls on and on.


Now meet a pretty lady who could give Santanico Pandemonium
a run for her money. From the hit Canadian TV comedy-drama
Being Erica, the future Mrs. Richie Gecko-- Erica Strange!




Thank you very much, Richie. You're so sweet!
And hello to you out there! On Being Erica, my mysterious therapist, Dr. Tom, works his magic
and sends me back in time to relive pivotal
events in my life, correcting mistakes
that led me down the wrong path.

THE VIDEO NOW!

On my new show, Strange Magic Being Erica,
I will send you back in time to re-experience
the happy times of your youth - no fixing -
just fun. I'll be presenting the best mix
of classic rock from the 60s, 70s and
80s - great songs like this one!


"Rikki Don't Lose That Number" - Steely Dan
(June/July 1974, highest chart pos. #3 Cash Box/#4 Hot 100)

Steely Dan with Donald Fagen on lead vocals doing "Rikki Don't Lose
That Number," a top 5 hit for the jazz rock band in the summer of '74.


If you like what you heard so far, then I hope you'll join me for my new show
Strange Magic Being Erica coming up later this year on S-P-M-M Radio.

Now I'd like you to meet another new Shady Bunch DJ. She probably gets this
all the time, but I think she looks a lot like Joan on Mad Men. She is the star of
another hit TV series, the NBC comedy-drama Good Girls, not to be confused
with Good Girls Revolt with Cindy, Patti and Jane. Say hello to Beth Boland!

Thank you, Erica, and hello one and all!
On Good Girls, I am an ordinary suburban
wife and soccer mom who, through a series
of bizarre circumstances, manages to turn
myself into a gangster moll. In what little
spare time I have between robberies, I'll
be hosting my new radio show here on
S-P-M-M. It's called (appropriately)
Beth Boland's Adrenaline Rush,
and will feature the best mix
of the 70s and 80s.

CLICK TO START VID!

My specialty is music with a beat to get
your heart pounding - Foreigner, Hall & Oates, Steve Miller, Boston and more.
This fellow will be a frequent flyer.
You know what they say...
spare the rod and spoil the
show.. Let there be Rod!


"Tonight I'm Yours (Don't Hurt Me)" - Rod Stewart
(Feb./Mar. 1982, highest chart pos. #15 Cash Box/#20 Hot 100)


The Rodster, Rod Stewart, with his top
20 U.S. hit from '82 "Tonight I'm Yours
(Don't Hurt Me)." I gotta go see a man
about a horse, but I'll be back later this
year with the first edition of my show
Beth Boland's Adrenaline Rush.

Now, last but certainly not least,
here is the 10th new member of
The Shady Bunch deejay corps
for 2021. She's another good girl
breaking badass, one of the stars
of the hit Netflix science fiction
horror series Stranger Things.
Please welcome Nancy Wheeler!





Thanks, Beth, and hello everyone! On my TV
show Stranger Things, I went from shy violet
to warrior princess in the battle against alien
creatures from the Upside Down. That being
the case, I'm sure you understand why my
new S-P-M-M radio show is called
No More Mr. Nice Girl.

As an 80s teenager, I'll be playing
the best sounds of the decade, the stuff
I listen to when I wanna rock myself
to sleep. Here's April Wine!


"Rock Myself To Sleep" - April Wine
(Aug./Sept. 1985 uncharted)






From Nova Scotia, the hard rock band
April Wine with a great 80s sound
"Rock Myself To Sleep." Hard to
believe that single never reached
the chart - didn't even Bubble Under.
I suppose Stranger Things have
happened, but I don't know when.
Remember me, Nancy Wheeler,
and look for my new radio show
No More Mr. Nice Girl
making its debut this year
here at Shady's Place.

That wraps up our two-part New Year special. This is Nancy Wheeler saying
goodbye for now and reminding you to never leave home without your bear trap.
Stay tuned throughout the year for brand new radio shows from me and the rest of
The Shady Bunch - Jimmy Berluti, Patty Solis-Papagian, Kim Wexler, Joe Niagara,
Daisy Skye, The Gecko Brothers - Seth & Richie, Erica Strange, Beth Boland, Hepcat
Black, Ernest P. Worrell, The Good Girls - Cindy, Patti & Jane, Robert W. Morgan,
Dr. Don Rose, Brian Griffin, Shady Blue, Shady Green, Hy Lit, Jerry Blavat,
Toto Moto, Dell Rat Tom, Don Cornelius and Shady Seaweed. 2021 is
going to be a huge year, so keep it here on S-P-M-M, the station
that's #1 for music and fun. Happy new year and see you soon!


"Strut" (Extended Video Dance Mix ) - Sheena Easton
(Nov./Dec. 1984, highest chart pos.#4 Cash Box/#7 Hot 100)
