STEVE TERRELL PODCASTS

Howdy podlubbers and welcome to my mind!This month The Big Enchilada presents a big blast of crazy rock, soul and psychobilly. You'll hear a couple of great New Mexico bands, Felix y Los Gatos and The Blood-Drained Cows. Plus a great musical image to keep you warm in the February cold from 1950s beauties June Wilkinson & Mamie Van Doren. Then we take a sharp turn straight into the Old Weird America with a set of authentic American jug band music. It all makes sense in my mind. Welcome to my mind!

Happy New Year, podlubbers!To kick off the new year (and the new decade) The Big Enchilada presents a rocking ragtag compilation of tunes from three sources --

Boo! Halloween's a comin' and the pumpkin's gettin' fat. Welcome to the 15th episode of The Big Enchilada, the 2009 Steve Terrell Podcast Spooktacular featuring some ghoulish and horrifying sounds from The Cramps, The Fleshtones, Dead Moon, The Spiders, The Things and, of course, The Monsters ... not to mention classic Rat Fink rumblings from Mr. Gasser & The Weirdos.Not only is it a Halloween party, it's the first anniversary of this podcast. That's right Episode 1 was a whole year ago. And it was another Halloween show-- actually lifted from a recording of my 2006 Spooktacular broadcast on Terrell's Sound World on KSFR in Santa Fe. If you haven't already, you can find that HERE.

Another Big Enchilada podcast is served. Watch out, that plate is hot!Unlike my past few Big Enchilada shows, there's no overriding theme on Podcast 14 -- just Freeform Weirdo podcasting at its finest with pulse-pounding tunes by Roky Erikson, Wolfman Jack & The Wolfpack , The Almighty Defenders, Johnny Burnette, John Schooley, Nathaniel Mayer, Monkeyshines and so many more.And in the middle of the show there's a mini-version of what I like to call "Around The World in a Daze," raw, rockin' international sounds from the four corners of this delightful planet.

It's Labor Day season, time to honor the working men and women in this great land. And in particular, let's honor one particular type of worker: the barbecue cook.This podcast features songs of labor, song of BBQ, plus a few side dishes in between. Artists here include The Waco Brothers, Jimmy Reed, the late great James Luther Dickinson, The Del-Lords The A-Bones, Los Peyotes, The Fuzztones, Mojo Nixon and many more. So come on down to the BBQ.

The Big Enchilada is back with The Monkey-Wrestling Polka! This episode is divided into four segments. There's a set of songs from bands I've discovered through The GaragePunk Hideout. There's a barrel of monkey songs, inspired by a recent You've Got Good Taste podcast. There's a bone-crunching, loser-leave-town cage match of wrestling tunes and finally, a crazy polka party. Truly this is a milestone in Freeform Weirdo Podcasting!

Hey Baby, it's the Fourth of July! This month The Big Enchilada is going to look at life in the USA, the wonders, the weirdness, the inspiration, the insanity. It's one firecracker of a show, featuring music by Chuck Berry, The Blasters, The Fleshtones, The Dictators, The Dick Nixons, Wayne Kramer, Drywall Jon Langford, Shane McGowan, Dave Van Ronk and Fred Waring & His Pennsylvanians.

As Bob Dylan wisely pointed out, "God gave names to the animals." And in that spirit, I'm giving a name to this animal, i.e. my podcast: THE BIG ENCHILADA!! That's a little snazzier than "The Steve Terrell Podcast." Plus, as I mention in this latest installment, I got sick of all the numbers -- "Podcast 9, Terrell's Sound World 3," etc. So welcome to THE BIG ENCHILADA!! Number 10 is a hillbilly show, more Santa Fe Opry favorites, with lots of western swing and rockabilly, great tunes by Little Jummy Dickens, Mama Rosin, The Pine Valley Cosmonauts, The Supersuckers, Austin Lounge Lizards. Kris Hollis Key, Eugene Chadbourne, Emily Kaitz & Ray Wylie Hubbard, Bayou Seco, Hazeldine, Smokey Wood & The Wood Chips, Cecil McNabb, Andy Anderson and more. There's even a fine old murder song recorded live by Willie Nelson more than 40 years ago. These are songs that will make you proud to be an American -- even if you aren't one.

The finest in freeform weirdo postcasting including crazy tracks from King Khan & The Shrines, Troy Gregory with The Dirtbombs, The Standells, Nekromantix, Ross Johnson, The Big Ugly Guys, The Mushroom Overcoat, The Molting Vultures and the ever sexy Singing Sadie. There's music from around the world -- Cat from Thailand, ZzZ from The Netherlands, The Black Smokers from Italy -- and wild rocking sounds from New Mexico with Goshen and The Fe-Fi-Four plus Two. This is the kind of stuff I play on my Sunday night radio show, Terrell's Sound World on KSFR, 10 pm to midnight Sunday, Mountain Time, and you can hear it streaming live at http://www.ksfr.org

More country music as the Good Lord intented for it to sound, in all its twisted roots and branches.This show features several of New Mexico's best country/folk/hillbilly/roots-rock acts -- Kell Robertson, Mose McCormack, Hundred Year Flood, the late Rolf Cahn and the mysterious Jerry J. Nixon ... and lots more.These are the kind of tunes I play on the Santa Fe Opry, every Friday at 10 pm (Mountain Time) on KSFR, Santa Fe Public Radio

The type of stuff I like to play on my Sunday night radio show, Terrell's Sound World on KSFR in Santa Fe NM.

Here's a helping of good gospel music just the way I like it -- rough, raw, and full of spirit. This is the place where soul music and rock 'n' roll was born. I'm not trying to promote religion or make fun of it. I just really love this music.

World Beat not for World-Beat Weenies. Steve Terrell finds bitchen tunes from all over the globe in his first podcast of 2009.
