"Our Saviour," Little Steven Van Zandt was guest DJ on BBC London last Friday night and played a rather good selection of discs - Young Rascals, Fleshtones, Count Five, New York Dolls et al - while blathering on about "garaaaaage rock" and his Underground Garage US radio show. Yup, I very nearly choked on my dinner when he spun "Hard Luvin' Man" from Do You Swing? Of course the link man (who thought the 'tones were ancient history) was wetting his underpants about hearing "real RnR" on the radio although he neglected to explain why he had no doubt been playing anaemic-UK-indie-pop for a career. Tis but one small step, my friends.
