Dave Faulkner of The Hoodoo Gurus

Hoodoo Gurus Use-By Date
Is there anyone who doesn't like The Hoodoo Gurus? And if so, what's wrong with you? While best known in the US for their '80s-'90s heyday, when the band dominated both MTV and college radio charts with singles like "I Want You Back", "Come Anytime", "Bittersweet", "Miss Freelove 69", and "What's My Scene", down under, the band has continued to chug along, with 2012 finding them celebrating 30 years since the release of their debut single, "Lelani." Did we say celebrating? Boy, oh boy, are they celebrating. [...]

Hoodoo Gurus: Purity of Essence (Reviews)

Hoodoo Gurus - The Making of 'Purity of Essence' [Trailer]
Entering their 30th year, Hoodoo Gurus assert definitively that they are still a viable rock entity How about those Hoodoo Gurus! I liked the Sydney garage-poppers a lot back in the '80s, but like a lot of the Aussie bands that enjoyed their heyday back in those hazy days (Midnight Oil, Lime Spiders), safe money appeared to be on the quartet coasting on the nostalgia in the Land Down Under and not releasing too much in the way of new material. Then I ended up at their first NYC Hoodoo Gurus...

Hoodoo Gurus – What's My Scene (Live)

Nov 3, 2010, 3:01am The Sound Of Indie
Hoodoo Gurus are a good-time rock pop band from Australia that feature great 902s era college rock vocals in Dave Faulkner. In the late 802s and early 902s they had a string of snappy, slightly quirky, psychedelic, accessible singles, such as "Come Anytime" and "Miss Freelove '692" that lent themselves for constant rotation on college radio. Although Hoodoo Gurus enjoyed a fair amount of success stateside, I suspect that they were on the cusp of quite a bit more extensive success in the US but The Smithereens came out and [...]

The Wonder Of Oz

Jul 21, 2010, 8:16pm Barely Awake In Frog Pajamas
The Wonder Of Oz Australia has been on my radar since the early '70s, when my father bandied about the idea of moving the family there. He had a gig secured, but, at the eleventh hour, my mom put the kibosh on the venture. I was five and pissed. Cornfields and cows did not match the allure of koalas and kangaroos. I don't think Australia was of much consequence to me again until later in the decade and the success of Olivia Newton-John in Grease and the dominance of the Bee Gees in pop culture. I [...]

Nineteen Eighty One - Redux

Aug 3, 2009, 3:01pm Songs in Space
Ahhh, so here we go again, still stuck in the 80's. These posts are a relief for me, especially since I get away from posting about personal issues. I can't say it enough but I love the 80's. Always do and always will. Remember, 1981 is the date that these bands were formed. The tracks posted can be a couple of years after that date. Also, this selection is in no way a comprehensive list of bands that were formed in 1981. I am sure that I am missing some important bands. But, this is the [...]

Hoodoo Gurus - Magnum cum louder (1989)

Jul 28, 2009, 5:13am The Mood Indicator 2.0
The Hoodoo Gurus' first album for RCA provided a lot of hit potential that sadly never materialized ("Come Anytime" was as close as they came to it on the college charts) but Dave Faulkner's guitar-jangly, hook-laden tunes never broke though into the pop mainstream. Too bad; virtually every song here could have been a contender. Self-produced, polished without being slick, and literate, the band

Missing Love

Jul 11, 2009, 1:18pm Songs in Space
Image From Here It's been almost three years now since I wrote the poem below. And, three years have passed where I haven't seen my two children. God, I miss them so much. They live with my ex-wife in another state and are far away. And, due to my state of affairs over the past years, I have not been able to see them. I am in frequent contact with them; on the phone or text messaging. But, that isn't enough. My health has not been good over the past three [...]

Emotions - Guilt

Jun 16, 2009, 12:22pm Songs in Space
I have all kinds of emotions these days, so many I can't even count them all. You could say, my life is an emotional mess. Out of all these emotions, I think that guilt is the strongest one. It's like guilt is the spark that starts the fire of all the other emotions I feel. I would list all the things that I feel guilty about but I won't because it would be a great long list. They say guilt is a useless emotion. But, I tend to disagree with that. I think guilt has a proper place [...]
