      Der Platz für die Überschrift hat offensichtlich nicht ausgereicht.

      Es sollte heißen:

      Rain Parade haben für mich drei geniale Platten gemacht. Galten bei Kritikern als Anwärter auf the next big thing, waren dafür aber wohl zu gut. Bessere Beatles/Byrds/Syd Barret angehauchte Musik hat und wird es wohl wahrscheinlich nicht mehr geben. Revolver trifft Fifth Dimension und die frühen Floyd Singles. Absolut hypnotized. Nach Auflösung dieser Genius Band lebte ihre Musik weiter in den Bands Opal aus denen später Mazzy Star wurde und Viva Saturn.

      Plasticland haben auch sehr schöne Musik gemacht. Kenne zwar nicht alles, aber Wonder Wonderful Wonderland.

      Ebenfalls unter diese Überschrift gehören die famosen Green On Red, besonders mit ihrem Frühwerk Gravity Talks, die Long Ryders sowie das Dream Syndicate. Einen Querschnitt dieser Szene, die bewies dass die 80iger nicht nur Schrott waren, stellt die Platte Rainy Day dar. Hier trafen sich Musiker von Rain Parade, Dream Syndicate und den Bangles zu einem trance-psychedelia Ausflug ohne gleichen.

      Nachtrag zu Rainy Day. Auch Three o`Clock waren dort vertreten. Den Gesang der Band fand ich etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig.
      Wem die Beachwood Sparks gefallen sei Rain Parade wärmstens ans Herz gelegt.

      Plasticland: Die songs , die ich kenne..waren sehr interessant…
      Vipers: Feine band aus der nähe von new york..hatte mal die otta the nest..war ein wenig schwach produziert..
      Three o clock: hab eine platte..die GRAUSAM ist.. vermillion…biilligster pop..überproduziert..schrecklich..wenn sie einer geschenkt haben will: selbstabholer in HH.
      Game theory:enn ich zu wenig von
      Rain Parade: hab 2 alben..findich nicht soooo toll. Dream syndicate sind ERHEBLICH besser!!! finde die songs einfach zu langweilig..vor allem die crashing dream.

      Ansonsten: Miracle workers, thee fourgiven, mod fun, chesterfield kings, fuzztones, fleshtones, the cynics, slickee boys, droogs, the nomads, watermelon men, the daisy chain, cheepskates,stommachmouths, eleonar rigby, the creeps, subtones, tommyknockers, naz nomad & the nightmares ( =The Damned), Dukes of stratosphear (=XTC), the headless horsemen, the chevelles, the stems,butterfly collectors..und viele mehr..

      der beatlebum hat oben sehr kenntnisreich und recht zutreffend die einzelnen sachen charakterisiert. dem ist nichts hinzuzufügen. ich tendiere je nach gemütslage zwischen dream syndicate und rain parade, wobei ich abe rletzteren auch den vorzug gebe. freue mich, dass der bum auch die rainy day genannt hat, die ich leider verhökert habe, wie so vieles, aber um die scheibe tuts mir leid. kendra smith + susanna hoffs, näh war dat schön! so locker und flockig und leicht psychedelisch. bum, wir müssen da mal einen kleinen…..

      Der folgende Artikel zum Thema ist zwar etwas lang und in englischer Sprache aber trotzdem sehr lesenswert:

      TELL ME WHEN IT’S OVER:
      The Paisley Underground Reconsidered
      by John L. Micek
      PopMatters Music Critic

      If you ask Steve Wynn for one of his favorite memories from his days
      playing on the Los Angeles club scene back in the early eighties, you
      might be surprised by his answer.
      It’s not sharing the bill with such legendary combos as The Rain Parade
      or Green on Red, or touring the nation, or even recording an album in
      1982 that’s come to be viewed as a seminal document of the time (The Days
      of Wine and Roses — more on which later).
      No, when Wynn, the former Dream Syndicate leader (now a solo artist),
      thinks about the brief flowering of West Coast bands that became known as
      The Paisley underground, he thinks about a day trip to Catalina Island
      off the coast of Southern California.
      The year is 1982. It’s a glorious Fourth of July weekend, and members of
      the Dream Syndicate, Rain Parade, Salvation Army and the Bangles (before
      the big hair and „Walk Like an Egyptian“) are all in attendance. It is a
      day of sun, surf, barbecue and camaraderie.
      „It was the defining moment,“ Wynn recalled not long ago. „We were all
      just happy together. We were all into the moment.“
      So why should one memory, now 20 years gone, still hold any importance?
      Why should the activities of a semi-obscure group of bands still hold
      sway two decades after they first took up their instruments and committed
      songs to tape?
      The answer is twofold.
      First, Wynn’s story should resonate with anyone who even vaguely
      remembers their early 20s: that magical time when your friends are your
      family, when every sensation is the first one, and (if you’re a musician
      just starting out) rock is the food and drink that gets you through the
      day.
      „It was a surprisingly supportive scene,“ said Steven Roback, who
      co-founded the Rain Parade with brother David. „Part of it was
      preestablished friendships between David and I and the Hoffs family. We
      grew up together, lived two blocks from each other. In fact, I performed
      in seventh grade musical with Sue [Susannah Hoffs of the Bangles] as the
      lead.“
      The camaraderie between the bands was at least as important as the music
      they were making. For a period of several years, the Paisley Underground
      groups crossed paths on tour, shared the same booking agents, and worked
      on each other’s projects.
      The epicenter for the scene was the two-story, Los Angeles apartment kept
      by desert rockers Green on Red. The band’s barbecues provided a place to
      schmooze, drink and swap musical ideas. It is a place recalled with great
      fondness by the Paisley Underground’s various members.
      Rain Parade guitarist Matt Piucci puts it this way: „We met the Dream
      Syndicate through a (Green on Red) barbecue,“ Piucci recalled. „They had
      this place up in Hollywood. From there, we met the [Bangles‘] Peterson
      sisters — Ooh yeah! They were very sweet girls.“
      The bands that made up the Paisley Underground provide a direct link
      between the early American underground and the modern alternative rock
      and alt.country that was to follow a decade later.
      „It was a marriage of classic rock and punk,“ explained Pat Thomas,
      co-owner of San Francisco indie Innerstate Records and the Underground’s
      unofficial historian. „It was a precursor to SubPop and the whole
      alternative country movement. You’ve got bands like the Long Ryders.
      Fast-forward 10 years, and everyone thinks that Son Volt is God’s gift to
      country rock.“
      Indeed, the harsh guitar noise of the Dream Syndicate echoed later in the
      Pixies and Nirvana (Kurt Cobain once cited the Syndicate as an influence)
      and the twangy guitars of the Long Ryders and Green on Red later provided
      a blueprint for alt.country pioneers Uncle Tupelo.
      „Uncle Tupelo started as we were unraveling,“ former Long Ryders bassist
      Tom Stevens said. „We played St. Louis once, and I don’t know if (Uncle
      Tupelo leaders Jeff Tweedy and Jay Farrar) were out in the audience
      taking notes or what.“
      Although they disagree about exactly when they were officially christened
      (listening to the various musicians tell stories about the era is not
      unlike playing a child’s game of telephone), Wynn and the others do agree
      that it was former Salvation Army leader Michael Quercio who gave the
      movement its name.
      Quercio — who later went on to form the Three O’Clock and Jupiter Affect
      – — jokingly dropped the Paisley Underground reference during an
      interview. It stuck. And again, depending on whom you ask, the communal
      moniker was either a godsend or an albatross.
      „We viewed it as joke,“ Stevens said. „We didn’t like to be pigeonholed
      on the one hand. On the other, if people were writing about us and
      spelling our names right, it was okay.“
      Wynn is slightly more charitable.
      „I don’t think [Quercio] thought it would stick like it did“, he said.
      „As dopey as it was . . . it was helpful to have a banner over it. It
      didn’t really hurt anyone.“
      Those involved in the scene also agree on something else: the umbrella
      label failed to take into account the diverse bands that made up the
      Paisley Underground scene.
      On the one hand, there was the desert rock of Green on Red and the
      country-punk of the Long Ryders. On the other was the dreamy pop of the
      Rain Parade and the Salvation Army/3 O’clock. The Dream Syndicate,
      meanwhile, blended psychedelia with the anger of punk and the mystique of
      the Velvet Underground.
      „These bands in L.A. had extremely diverse musical personalities. Some of
      them were extremely hard rocking, and that’s why the Paisley Underground
      is truly a misnomer,“ Roback said. „The whole thing was a spontaneous
      resynthesis of many influences, which happens periodically, colored by
      the personalities of the people and the times. Rain Parade was very much
      a recasting of our punk interests in more musical terms, inspired by our
      fascination with music history.“
      Indeed, if you spend any time talking with its constituents, it rapidly
      becomes apparent that the Paisley Underground’s members are music junkies
      in the truest sense of the word. Wynn and Piucci, in particular, are
      repositories of vast stores of rock history. Combine that knowledge with
      a punk D.I.Y ethic, and the scene explodes.
      „We all came out of punk,“ Wynn said. „We had a huge musical awakening in
      1977, and it just blew everything else away. In 1975, you couldn’t do
      that. But by 1982, it was second nature.“
      That melding of styles also lends the music a certain timelessness that
      is lacking in other records of the period. Indeed, the Dream Syndicate’s
      The Days of Wine and Roses or Rain Parade’s stellar debut, Emergency
      Third Rail Power Trip, still sound refreshingly modern and could easily
      occupy the same indie airspace as the Strokes or the Anniversary.
      „I think it’s because they wrote good songs,“ Chicago Sun-Times rock
      critic Jim DeRogatis said of the scene’s staying power. „It’s
      illuminating to compare the ’60s revivals of the era — the West Coast
      Paisley Underground and the East Coast garage scene. The bands from the
      former stay with the fans much more than the latter because they wrote
      strong material that stood the test of time, while the latter were
      largely devoted to covers and style (and fashion) over songwriting.“
      But by 1985, the scene had disintegrated amid personnel changes, disputes
      over songwriting, and the old demon: record deals gone bad.
      „Unfortunately, they were all united by the fact that they all took turns
      for the worse when they were signed to major labels,“ DeRogatis wrote in
      his seminal work on the scene, Kaleidoscope Eyes.
      „In the days before Nirvana, they proved there was money to be made if
      the bands were left to their own devices,“ DeRogatis wrote. „It’s
      possible that corporate meddling was to blame. The bands may have lost
      heart as, with the sole exception of R.E.M., American guitar music was
      unable to achieve both critical and commercial success.“
      For a brief, flashing moment, it appeared that the American underground
      had conquered rock. And through the prism of two decades, the members of
      the Paisley Underground remain fiercely proud of their legacy.
      „The reason the L.A. scene has endured is because the music was really
      good,“ Roback said. „I mean things did get a little absurd when these . .
      . A&R people started showing up at gigs and throwing money around. But
      these people were all very talented, and regardless of the label, capable
      of great things. For about three or four years, all of those bands were
      on a serious roll, producing great music, which was all different . . .
      The rest is mainly hype.“
      But the artistic achievement was important enough for Innerstate’s Thomas
      (whose own New York band, the Rochester-based Absolute Gray, provided the
      Underground with its East Coast branch office) to spend several fruitless
      months attempting to compile a still-unreleased Paisley Underground boxed
      set.
      He began compiling the set in 1997 at the behest of executives at
      Rykodisc in England. „I got a phone call out of the blue“, he recalled.
      „And they were looking for the phone numbers for some of the key members.
      I was working at a record store and the owner was good friends with the
      head of A&R at Ryko and he convinced him why I should have the job.
      Finally, they flew someone out to meet with me, and by 1998, I had the
      job.“
      What followed is a textbook example of the whims of the record business.
      After spending six months compiling photographs, tracking down old
      B-sides and compiling live cuts, the rug was suddenly pulled out from
      under him.
      „Ryko got bought out by Island, and they fired the big bosses,“ he said.
      „Pretty much every project got canceled. Every few months, someone from
      Ryko will call and ask what’s up, but I’d be surprised if it ever sees
      the light of day.“ He’s briefly toyed with releasing the set on his own
      label, but the costs of such a project would make it prohibitive. „To do
      it all top-notch would cost about $30,000,“ he said. „If we were to do it
      ourselves, it would cost about $10,000. What needs to happen is that
      someone needs to take the bull by the horns. I’ll get excited when and if
      that happens.“
      Several hundred miles north of Thomas‘ Oakland offices that has already
      begun to happen.
      Founded little more than a year ago, the Portland, Oregon-based indie,
      the Paisley Pop Label, has dedicated itself to keeping the spirit of the
      Underground alive. In its brief existence, the label has released demos
      and outtakes by former Windbreaker s Bobby Sutliff and Tim Lee, an
      Absolute Grey live set, and, more recently, a collection by former True
      West members Gavin Blair and Richard McGrath called The Foolkillers.
      Label owner Jim Huie (himself a frequent collaborator with former True
      West guitarist Russ Tolman) also moderates a Paisley Underground mailing
      list. It is, he says, his way of keeping the faith.
      „If the Paisley Underground built upon the ’60s, then it’s certainly
      possible that a younger crowd might take inspiration from the Dream
      Syndicate and the Long Ryders.“
      For his part, Wynn said he’s glad that the Paisley Underground’s legacy
      has endured and picked up new fans.
      „It’s attached to a lot of strong feelings from people“, he said. „I
      don’t know how many are people who were there at the time and how many
      are 25-year-old kids who are discovering it for the first time . . . I
      think it still sounds kind of non-formulaic in ways that other music does
      not. It still does stand out.“

      David Sinclair at the Astoria, WC2

      Never the most reliable team of performers in their day, Green on Red
      have nevertheless turned out to be men of their word. Having failed to
      play a show at the Astoria in May 1987 – the point at which the singer
      and guitarist Dan Stuart was declared clinically insane and the group
      fell apart – the group finally returned to honour the booking on Tuesday
      night. They even played the same set of songs that they were planning to
      feature 19 years ago.
      With so much water having passed under the bridge, Stuart felt obliged
      to preface the show with a lengthy and often comical monologue at the
      end of which he apologised for „all this reunion s***“. This was nice,
      but unnecessary. For if ever there was a band that always conducted its
      affairs with a cavalier lack of concern for tactical or business
      considerations, while performing music that came straight from the
      heart, it was Green on Red.

      The band, which originated in Tucson, Arizona, pioneered a heroic brand
      of Americana music before the term was even coined. They released a
      succession of brilliant but commercially neglected albums in the 1980s,
      which fused elements of country, blues and rock, while blazing an
      erratic trail around the concert halls of Europe. Their shows could
      either be a display of transcendental genius or a very earthbound
      shambles.

      The core line-up of Stuart, keyboard player Chris Cacavas, bass player
      Dan Waterson and guitarist Chuck Prophet was joined by Jim Bogios,
      replacing the original drummer Alex MacNicol, who died last year. Older,
      wiser and somewhat more wizened they may be, but the years rolled away
      as they embarked on an opening sequence which included the perennial
      drinking song Hair of the Dog. Stuart, all gruff snarl and gargoyle
      eyes, spat out the lyric, while Cacavas leavened the mood with a jaunty
      honky tonk piano part.

      Stuart was an amiable frontman but it was Prophet who stole the show
      with a succession of elegant, dramatic and tightly scripted guitar
      solos, most notably during the slow, bluesy Jimmy Boy and the soaring
      finale of Sea of Cortez.

      While the danger and unpredictability that was part of their original
      appeal had given way to a more seasoned professionalism, it meant that
      the songs actually sounded better than ever. And when Stuart sang the
      familiar chorus line, „Time ain’t nothing when you’re young“ from his
      new perspective, there was a genuine surge of affection for these
      unlikely survivors from another era. Let’s hope it is not so long before
      their next outing.
