50 States set

[howlin' hoosier]

Time for some exercise - build up a 50 song set of fuzz busting faves from around the U.S., one song per state. Limit yourself to no more than 3 songs in a post - step back and let a couple others post before you dive back in. Once a state is named, it's out of play. Bonus points for those states that didn't see a lot of garage action on 45s.

Being a good Hoosier boy, I'll selfishly start off with Indiana, and go with a group at the top of the alphabet - Aztek's I Said Move seems like a good starting point. 49 more tunes to go...

Yessir, New York is a state, indeed - those are awfully tough choices to narrow down!

Whoops- just realized - the song has to have fuzz, or no? I'll have to amend a few nominations if that is the case. I just figured we were looking for definitive type songtitles to best represent each state.
