As November was ending, Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus glanced at his calendar and noted that the only DJ gig he had in December was the WHAM-O WATUSI on the second. He figured that, once that was over, he would be able unlax for the rest of the year. But that was not to be. Before you know it, folks were calling for his unique Boogaloo action at their events and clubs. Suddenly, he had four more gigs in less than two weeks!

That’s OK, the Phast Man is a trooper and digs playing his records for folks to enjoy. The last of these gigs took place on December 18 at the Jupiter Disco–another installment of the Stormy Monday series of groovy DJ nights.

DJ Xerox visits with Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus at the Jupiter Lounge.

We’ve got to state here that Jupiter Disco is the best-named new bar in town. Over the last several years, a LOT of new bars and clubs have opened that are really well appointed, beautifully designed, with good sound systems and with excellent selections of beverages, but they have names that are dull, unimaginative and forgettable. Just about any reference to outer space is a winner. Remember the Satellite Lounge? What a cool name, but, unfortunately, a crappy bar–unless you liked pinball.

Another reason the Boogaloo Bag writers dig the Jupe is that it is around the corner from our favorite new taqueria, Los Hombres. Before every gig at the Jupiter Disco, Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus and the Bag’s official photographer Nancy “Jeannie” Gardner dine on tacos and/or quesadillas at this authentic Mexican eatery.

Speaking of Miss Nancy, she brought along some excellent shortbread cookies, garnished with caramel and dark chocolate. Her edible creations augmented Phast Phreddie’s audio delicacies perfectly. Come to a gig, dance, drink, eat cookies. Yum!

Miss Nancy’s cookies!!

Mambo Jambo is the reet music night hosted by our pal DJ Rata, held on the third Saturday of the month at Otto’s Shrunken Head. On December 16, his guest DJ was Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus. With two nights at this tiki bar in four days (The Copycat Cover Song Night Tribute to Frank Zappa was a few nights earlier), one would assume that Phast Phreddie owns the club now! Rest assured, he does not.

Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus and DJ Rata swing at Mambo Jambo!

Let us stop fooling with particulars and get to the real reason people read the Boogaloo Bag… Nancy “Jeannie” Gardner made some yummy molasses cookies and distributed them accordingly! Man, they were good, and everyone said so.

DJ Rata digs wild music. When he swings, he swings with magnificent mambos and ribald R&B music. So for this occasion, The Phast Man played much of the same–mostly.

The holiday scene at Otto’s Shrunken Head!

DJ Xerox (wearing his Wowie Zowie jacket!) and Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus swing at the Copycat Tribute to Frank Zappa.

For the Copycat Tribute to Frank Zappa, host DJ Xerox turned to Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus to work his DJ magic between bands on Wednesday, December 13 (eight days before Zappa’s birthday–the 21st); held, as usual, at Otto’s Shrunken Head. Little did he know that Phast Phreddie was a big Zappa fan in his wee lad days. It was Mr. Zappa’s influence that turned the kid from a teeny bopper into a freaked out hopper back around 1968. It was through Zappa that he was introduced to modern jazz, delta blues, greasy R&B, experimental art music and other non-Top 40 sounds. In short, it blew the young child’s fragile egg shell mind. The Phast Man attended one of the last gigs by the original Mothers of Invention, was in the house when Just Another Band From LA was recorded at UCLA’s Pauley Pavillion and actually got to meet Mr. Zappa once. However, The Boog got off the Zappa bus around the time Waka/Jawaka was released, as Zappa’s music seemed to become more self-indulgent. But the damage was done: Phast Phreddie could never listen to popular music the same way again. Thanks, Frank!

As per the Copycat template, three bands were contracted to play songs written by Frank Zappa mixed in with their own fine compositions. On this occasion, the bands were:

The Others of Intention

1) The Others of Intention was a group rounded up by our pal Michael Lynch to perform only Zappa songs for this occasion. The band played mostly compositions from Freak Out and We’re Only in It for the Money, plus “Willie the Pimp.” Michael Rafalowich played great guitar and everybody was jazzed by the virtuoso kazoo playing of Esther Crow.

Our pal Drew Redmond swings at a groovy joint in Ridgewood called Milo’s Yard every Thursday night. The evening is entitled Pinball Rock because the joint has a bunch of pinball machines. Normally Mr. Redmond does this night by himself, with an occasional guest Dj. However, Mr. Redmond‘s friend Horatio got up the idea of recording the night and sending it off to like-minded friends he has in Cuba! The Cubanos will record a night and send it to Horatio. So Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus was asked to drop in and contribute some jams, preferably reet stuff that the Cubanos may not have heard and may dig.

So The Boog dutifully rounded up about 40 45s, plus a small container of molasses cookies recently baked by Nancy “Jeannie” Gardner,  and made the trek to Queens.

Having never been in that part of the world before, The Boog arrived in the neighborhood early and walked around a bit, noting the existence of several Ecuadorian eateries in the process. (The Boogaloo Bag writers will have to come back soon to sample the local flavor.)

For this event, Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus culled some of his all-time favorite reet sounds: records that he has loved for decades as well as discs he has discovered over the years, plus a few recent acquisitions. Milo’s Yard is a small bar owned by a couple named Claudia DeMairo and David Poh and it is named after their dog, Milo. It is in the middle of nowhere so who would expect folks to hang out there on a Thursday night? However, there were enough people in the place to make it fun–including several in the back room playing pinball–and fun was had; witness the quick disappearance of Nancy’s molasses cookies! Thus these groovy jams were not played in vain. Also, some day soon some Cubanos are going to dig this audio scene, and we will all dig what is being put down in Cuba. Let’s hope the recording engineer was on the ball and the reet music sounds right.

Even if The Boog didn’t play a single record that night, the trip to Milo’s Yard was worth it just to hear Drew Redmond’s records–he’s got some gassers! Perhaps some night The Boog will make the scene there just to do that. Until he does, it is recommended that Boogaloo Bag readers do so as soon as possible and as often as possible.

Drew Redmond swings at Pinball Rock!

Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus is in the red and DJ Rata is armed with a smoothie and a cookie at the WHAM-O WATUSI!!

On the second day of December, the WHAM-O WATUSI returned to its regularly scheduled night–the first Saturday of the month–at its regularly scheduled home–the Bootleg Bar. On hand to make it special was DJ Rata.

Rata is one of the most popular guest DJs at the WHAM-O. He plays jump blues, R&B, mambo, ska, rockabilly, reggae and Latin boogaloo–everything that is reet. When he is at the turntables, the kids all hop non-stop! This can be witnessed whenever he hosts Mambo Jambo at Otto’s Shrunken Head–the third Saturday of the month.

DJ Rata selects another reet disc at the WHAM-O WATUSI!

On this night, host Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus played “Ratty Ratty” by Maskman, then presented it to Rata as a gift. Rata reciprocated by giving the Phastman a copy of “Esperma y Ron” by Pedro Laza y sus Pelayeros–a cool cumbia from Colombia coveted by The Boog. The Phastman played it at the earliest opportunity, then followed it with another Pedro Laza record that he already had in his box.

DJ Rata and Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus exchanged 45s at the WHAM-O WATUSI!

The WHAM-O WATUSI was enhanced by the cookies baked by Nancy “Jeannie” Gardner: pumpkin spice and chocolate crinkles. Folks had their choice, but most took at least one of each. Those cookies were way good. The WHAM-O was even further enhanced by the attendance of some of our pals. As The Boog always says sometimes, “I’m not really here, I just stick around for my friends!”

Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus presents the baker of super fine cookies, Nancy “Jeannie” Gardner at the WHAM-O WATUSI!

Happy to see the gang at the WHAM-O WATUSI! Ryan Sweeting from Florida, Brandan Pierce Peck, DJ Rata, Candis Conover, Lauren Krohn and Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus with Nancy’s cookies (she was taking the photo).

Rata had just picked up a copy of “Boogaloo Frog” and the Phastman made sure he played it. When he did, the Phastman did a frog dance!
