    Paper Collectibles

    I'm on the look out for original/canonical piano sheet music and there is some teenbeat stuff out there. I have "People in Me" MM, "Too Much to Dream" EP, "Good Thing" PRR "96 Tears" QMM and other mid-60s items not of a strictly teen beat nature. Any "garage" piano sheet info would be appreciated.

    Are you new to sixties garage punk and do not know where to turn?

    As some of this thread is evolving into a "most meaningful" teenbeat classic, I'm gonna go with "Ups & Downs" by PR&R. In my ½-C on planet Earth I've had plenty of those! (and a few "all arounds" for good measure)

    company sleeves

    I try keep all my 45s in canonical sleeves. One teen beat label missing in the 45-sleeves.com URL is "Leo" that issued the Combenashuns (although that might be seen as a borderline picturesleeve). Sometimes I go to record shows just to buy sleeves and get relieved looks from dealers when...

    Worst Master Recording

    "Little Latin Lupe Lu" (The Kingsmen [LP version: Cdn Reo]). It's still a "fave" rave up. Buckeyebeat's words re The Endd fit, "The sound matches the mood and feel of the song."

    60s garage covering itself - a (work in progress) list

    Yes, you are correct: delete from the list. I wiki'd it and apparently the first artist was Dick Holler and the Holidays.

    60s garage covering itself - a (work in progress) list

    Jolly Green Giant - Kingsmen/Don & the Goodtimes Get it On - PRR / Eric & the Norsemen 96 Tears - ?/M, Music Machine, Music Explosion et al [unless this counts as a "staple"; where are you drawing your arbitrary "line in the sand" of staple v. non-staple] Little Black Egg - Nightcrawlers, Music...

    What would you say is THE BEST?

    Bad Apple (Pilgrimage). Hey that's my blogname: Charles Vermont - The Original 1966 Bad Apple. Had a band in the '80s (North Vancouver, B.C.) too call The Bad Apples [no gigs but we were bad-a**]. Congenial: We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet (Blues Magoos), q.v., classic black Mercury label used as...

    Chronology of garage comps

    Of course my memory might be playing tricks (or I suffer from confabulations), but I recall: 1. Nuggets being re-issued by Sire in '76 2. Pebbles Vols. 9 and 10 released in 1980. I first heard of them while I was still in High School (class of '80, eh). A band I knew (The RoadRunners /...

    G45 Ebay Watch

    Haunted on Amy 1-2-5 recent Ebay sale ($125.95 USD+SH). Bootleg? Can any of you experts confirm whether this was a pirate copy. I'm curious: use of "JET" as a matrix for Amy seems weird. Is it just a coincidence that was also the name of a local Montreal label where the band was originally...

    How did you get into garage records? Were YOU in a band? Are you still in a band?

    My testimonial: I became interested in music back in 1972 at age 10 when I asked my parents to enroll me in piano lessons (I still play BTW). In 1973 my interest intensified when I “discovered” pop music. The local AM station (CFUN, Vancouver) occasionally played oldies. For whatever reason...

    G45 Ebay Watch

    E-Bay is predictable in the sense that it is not immune to general laws of randomness. It is possible that the two appearances of Floyd Dakil on Earth within a brief period, but not otherwise for a long time, is a "random burst," first referenced by Siméon-Denis Poisson (1781–1840). You may...

    You're Gonna Miss Me press?

    For greater clarity, maybe you should've said, "there are four distinct U.S. pressings." :) I only asked because my copy, also on International Artists 107, is Canadian-made. It didn't ergo fall under any of the four pressing you refer to and, as such, I believe it reasonable to challenge...
