Deborah Harry, “In Love With Love” 12” (Geffen, 1987)
Awesome remix of a tune from her ’87 solo album, tricked out here with a dub-spectral arcade of sound and percolating Latin-disco percussion. Captures like nothing else the NYC-at-night passage from a crowded club dancefloor to the empty streets outside, that crackling sense of menace and excitement.

Davie Allen And The Arrows et al., “The Wild Angels” (Tower, 1968)
Soundtrack for what looks like a really cool biker flick. The music is fuzzed-out, amped-up, sinister surf-rock. Not as far-out as the other Allan LP we got, but A/5 is his catchiest tune.
Also try A/1, B/2

Davie Allan And The Arrows, “The Cycle-Delic Sounds of . . .” (Tower, [1968?])
Collection of Vintage “biker rock” instrumentals, i. e. surf music with a sinster vibe and fuzzed out guitars. The guitars get pretty frantic sometimes, and would no doubt have made a good soundtrack for “Vulture” or “The Loser” driving their “hogs” off a cliff while tripping balls on sheets of “Gooney Bird.”
Try A/1, B/5
