The Dictators were birthed in the teenage wasteland years between the end of garage rock and the beginning of punk rock and they stuck the two together with bubble gum and came up with what still stands as one of the most beautifully stoop takes on teenage USA ever conceived by fans of pro-wrestling. For anyone who has ever worshipped the thunder of Manitoba, Every Day Is Saturday is hot dog heaven, a double LP that runs the entire length of their career, unearthing demos, out-takes, radio promos and associated sub-cultural detritus that added together proves that Dick Manitoba was – and still is – the handsomest man in rock and roll. If you dig Archie Comics, White Castle, The Ramones, psychotronic cinema, the whole Meltzer/Bangs axis, Lou Reed, The Dolls, cars, girls, surfing ,beer, then this is your style bible. Kicking off with early pre-Manitoba 1973 recordings direct from the masters, this runs through alternate 1976 spins of classic like “Sleepin’ With The TV On” and “Baby Let’s Twist” through Bloodbrothers-era out-takes and on up to unreleased DFFD bombs. Throw in a gatefold sleeve with unbelievable snaps, memorabilia and liners from Top Ten, Handsome Dick, Adny Shernoff and Rich Nesin and it’s coca cola for breakfast seven days a week.
