wait til you hear the unreleased Leaves songThat looks like it could be great. Dore alone released a tidy pile of great rare and obscure mid-60s garage 45s. The Syndicate, The Motion, South Hampton Story, Spencer's Van Dykes, John Winfield Jr., and a few others. Would be great if the new CD contains unreleased material by any of those.

Alec says the Harlan Michael track is a Jerden-sourced master so was not available. Before Jerry Dennon died, he sold his catalogue to an investment company.Too bad they missed the Harlen Michael "Day Sleeper" 45.
A personal favourite.

The ODDS & ENDS became the HEROS I Can Only Give You Everything on M-Gee. A ODDS & ENDS tracks shows up twice in the Z-flick Mondo Bizarro which I just picked up on Blu-Ray. John has a acetate of the Tormentors doing a commercial for the R.F. Club. (Rat Fink)I just listened to the CD, outstanding work by Ace/Alec Palao, as usual.
According to the excellent liner notes the Tormentors were formed by ex members of the Odds & Ends, but what's about the Heros on M-Gee? Were they formed by different members?
YES, I knew that since we've talked numerous times over the last 3 months. He thinks the label owner owned a auto dealership.Well not exactly Mr. D
When I interviewed John A. in the 1990s for the GPU re-do and for royalties owed from Crypt records, he said the lineup for the Odds & Ends had dissolved. Some guys then joined the Tormentors a group that already existed. A few then formed a new group, the Heros. They just didn't changed the name as implied. He also said the name Heros was given by their producer and not a chosen moniker.
John has a acetate of the Tormentors live at the Rooster Club, also known as the R.F. Club. (Rat Fink)
John Acquarelli. I believe it's a commercial for the club. He played it for me. Pretty corny.Sorry...who is “John” with the Tormentors acetate?
When does this puppy "drop"? Bezos-World doesn't have a hardcopy for sale yet.
Amazon is selling downloads only of Blow My Mind.I was lucky to find it in a local Chicago record store. It’s the first CD release EVER that I couldn’t find on Amazon. Very strange.
