'60s Jangle

Two of my all time favorites:
Thursday's Children-You Can Forget About That
The Gremlins-Only Thing On My Mind
 
Wildlife - 'Time Will Tell'
Stillroven - 'Sunny Day'
Other Side - 'Walking Down The Road'
Truths - 'Pending'
Harbinger Complex - 'My Dear And Kind Sir'
Novas - 'And It's Time'
 
Enjoying the Nederjangle!

I should patriotically be dropping Staccatos and Paupers titles but to me the quintessential jangler (and should have been huge hit but was not released) is You Movin' by The Byrds!

There are a couple of different takes, I think this one (above) was on the Rhino comp. I always picture dancers from the Shivaree, Shindig or Hullabaloo tv shows with white sweatshirts freaking out like a Ventures LP cover or like Vito and co. :)
 
The Showmen - Make Up Your Mind
Johnny And The Gents - I Won't Fall
The Clouds - Jeannie
The Midknights - Why

The Night Flight - To Color Turn


The Different Parts - Why



The Patriots - As Fall The Leaves

 
A diabolically tough score this, LLLOONNNGGGGGG$$$$$$$$$$$$$ required to procure it 15 years back after 20 years of searching. I first learned about it as it was referenced in the Bomp Power Pop issue circa 1978. A ***** Euro classic, destined to (eventually) reside on my top shelf, Klassik on every level that counts... or could/should be.

Jangle yes, in fits & starts; arguably serving as a Big Star template as well.

For all ye stalwart & unrepentant New World jangle purists here's a sad sack lament transiting from deep within one of our deepest domestic gator - infested redoubts. Surely a short list candidate for all time pre-suicidal jangle goof weeper, the goof revealing itself with the priceless chortle @ at 1.26, that naively un-stunning on-mike faux-pas elevates this elusive LA. jangler to high winner/loser status in my book.
