the flamin groovies backed by the a-bones at the ponderosa stomp

It’s not the future anyone expected but it’s still the one we live in—unbeatable rock ‘n’ roll label Norton (home of our favorite records and yours too, even if you don’t know it yet) crept into modernity first with the digital issue of innumerable slaughtering garage and r&b 45s and now Billy and Miriam (last seen backing the Flamin’ Groovies in New Orleans as well as Roy Loney a year ago at a Boss Hoss show in L.A.!) have launched the Norton blog! These folks were responsible for Kicks—one of the best American fanzines ever—and we doubt that the digital transition will take any of the edge off. Visit now and forever at http://nortonville.blogspot.com. And ask for one of their catalogs, too!
