Bonzo Goes to Washington

Not the Ramones. You'll probably recognize the song when you hear it.

If you find any of the others, run, don't walk, to your computer and send them to me, or post them. Very hard to find, those.

The Ramones did "Bonzo Goes To Bitburg (My Brain Is Hanging Upside Down)"...Probably where the confusion lies!

Cleverblue and Marie, thanks for posting those!!!!

Marie, was Aku-Aku a Long Island-based band?

[marie3]

Yes, Neil Hooper was the singer. When I knew him he lived in Long Beach (on Long Island) He was (and I'm sure still is) a real nice guy.

Man all these forgotten WLIR deep cuts! Kewel![8D]
Thanx for the memories everyone!

And Thank YOU Marie, I got that track you sent.
Aku Aku, Wow.. I remember them getting plugs on WLIR for local gigs back in the day. So you 'knew' the leadman eh?

Ahh.. Long Beach... Dunes.. breezy summer nights on the boardwalk..
Lived there in the West End from '93 - '01 (Party Hardy!) [}:)][;)]

That song is quite different from the only Aku Aku song I have, "The Night belongs to Charlie".

You guys are the BOMB!!!! Thanks ever so much....

I didn't know he was down in LB, I'll have to look for him on the line at Waldbaums, lol.

2Nu, I hate to berak this to you, but Chauncy's is long gone, along with many livers. Still a few places to to toss 'em down though. Let the good times roll.

[raserx]

Thanks Cee & Marie...I hadn't heard that song in forever! Yes...Chauncey's is now luxury condos.A friend of mine lives across the street & she's quite happy not to have drunks peeing on her fence,car,house etc..anymore.

[/quote]I was one of those West Enders that was VERY HAPPY to see Chauncey's gone.

Funny I recall there was another gin mill called Arizonas that was on the next block over (Arizona & Oceanview).

I believe the same owners opened up another watering hole (Arizona II) out on eastern LI after the LB building went condo.

I lived on Nebraska right behind 'The Backyard - Tikki Bar'.

BTW: Times were much better there when it was 'Docksiders' (run by Tim and John)
