Checkerlads- Shake Yourself Down

This is such a nice diversion for me. I'm up early to exercise, go to work, come home to study for school, maybe catch a tiny bit of tele, go to sleep, up early....etc. And of course I fit this in right before any tele. This  blog seems to be the one constant in my life that offers me a bit of stress reduction right now. I can close my eyes and listens to some cool tunes before I jump into something else. One of the joys is popping out a brilliant single that is obscure, and hoping it goes over well. This obsurcity fits the bill tonight. From what I have read, this was only available as a promo. Should have been a smash!

good to hear this again, heard it a few times on Psychedelic Pete's shows a couple of years ago...they are Canadian aren't they?

regards Gary

p.s. any chance of squeezing in another request in August? if I can think of one!

Yes, I believe they were Canadian. Sure, request away. I'll do what I can. I'm in the middle of classess right now and they are going to be a bear for the next month.

my fault Poppa, time flies by these days and didn't realise how few days were left in August - but I'll put my thinking cap on and see if I can come up with a holy grail nugget of a request soon

Yikes...I hope I can live up to the term Holy Grail. Better come up with a list! I'm bound to have at least one thing.

They are from Saskatchewan. It was released there on Gaiety 116; they also had at least 2 other singles up there.

Are the the other 2 singles prety good?
