Song Of the Day: April 12, 2005
The Stones-Gunner Ho
From the EP "Another Disc, Another Dollar,"
Flying Nun Records, 1983
Dave Allman clued me in that Stylus Magazine is doing a feature this week on the Flying Nun label and the Dunedin sound, so I thought it might be appropriate to feature tracks by some of Dunedin's lesser-known combos. If the notion of a band having the temerity to call themselves the Stones seems rather unthinkable, consider that the band's singer and guitarist was Wayne Elsey, who later joined the equally reckless (and marvelous) Doublehappys. Elsey was killed in an accident while the 'Happys were on tour; accounts differ, but most suggest drunken hijinks on a train.
