Dengue Fever - Tiger Phone Card
Track taken from their album 'Venus On Earth' (2008) -
http://realworldrecords.com/catalogue/venus-on-earth
The eagerly-awaited album from the Los Angeles indie-rockers who have made it their mission to revive psychedelic, Khmer rock and roll of the 1960's. Fronted by a super-charismatic Cambodian siren, it's a sonic stew of kitsch surf-rock, spaghetti-Western cool, klezmer, ska, Cambodian pop and even Ethiopian jazz.

Track taken from the album '30 - Real World At WOMAD' -
https://realworldrecords.com/release/608/30-real-world-at-womad/
30 Real World at WOMAD is part of the Real World Gold series that's unearthed classic recordings from the label's vaults. And what treasure is being dusted off. Peter's quite correct when he talks of "so many of the world's great artists" passing through both organisations. From Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan to Afro Celt Sound System, Papa Wemba to the Blind Boys of Alabama, there have been so many fantastic records, so many unforgettable performances.

Everyone gets the blues, says Skip McDonald, who should know. The legendary guitarist gets them - like, really gets them - more than most. "The blues are a fact of life," he adds in a Dayton, Ohio twang undiminished by two decades of UK living. "It doesn't matter where you are. The blues have no boundaries."

You could have a steam train
If you'd just lay down your tracks
You could have an aeroplane flying
If you bring your blue sky back
All you do is call me
I'll be anything you need
You could have a big dipper
Going up and down, all around the bends
You could have a bumper car, bumping
This amusement never ends
I want to be - your sledgehammer
Why don't you call my name
Oh let me be your sledgehammer
This will be my testimony
Show me round your fruitcage
'Cos I will be your honey bee
Open up your fruitcage
Where the fruit is as sweet as can be
I want to be - your sledgehammer
Why don't you call my name
You'd better call the sledgehammer
Put your mind at rest
I'm going to be - the sledgehammer
This can be my testimony
I'm your sledgehammer
Let there be no doubt about it
Sledge Sledge Sledgehammer
I've kicked the habit, shed my skin
This is the new stuff, I go dancing in, we go dancing in
Oh won't you show for me and I will show for you
Show for me, I will show for you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I do mean you, only you
You've been coming through
Going to build that power
Build, build up that power, hey
I've been feeding the rhythm
I've been feeding the rhythm
Going to feel that power build in you
Come on, come on, help me do
Come on, come on, help me do
Yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh , yeh, yeh, you
I've been feeding the rhythm
I've been feeding the rhythm
It's what we're doing, doing
All day and night

SHOCK THE MONKEY
Cover me when I run
Cover me through the fire
Something knocked me out ' the trees
Now I'm on my knees

Fox the fox
Rat on the rat
You can ape the ape

I can't take any more
Darling, don't you monkey with the monkey
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey

Monkey, Wheels keep turning
Monkey, Something's burning
Monkey, Don't like it but I guess I'm learning
Shock! Shock! Shock! - watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Shock! Shock! Shock! - watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Cover me, when I sleep
Cover me, when I breathe
You throw your pearls before the swine
Make the monkey blind
Cover me, darling please
Monkey, monkey, monkey
Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey
Shock the monkey
Monkey, Too much at stake
Monkey, Ground beneath me shake
Monkey, And the news is breaking
Shock! Shock! Shock! - watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Shock! Shock! Shock! - watch the monkey get hurt, monkey
Shock the monkey, shock the monkey
Shock the monkey, shock the monkey
Shock the monkey to life
