TeenBeat Mayhem Blog

Very cool that I can share the PDF instead of loaning my book(s). Is there a plan to list unrated songs so we can continue to contribute?

 

[MopTopMike]

I've accumulated about 20 songs that are not rated, or not listed in the pdf.
Our team will vote on these and others I obtain over the next few months and then be added to the next update, as mentioned on the homepage of the website.

A changelog for comin' versions would be excellent.

Damn ! I put The Bobbies (She Put Me down) in a sort of "best of Alabama" of my own and i read that they were not from Florence, AL (confirmed in printed versions of TBM) but from Tennessee. You confirm i have to move them to an other comp ?

(thanks for the fantastic job, so glad to have this new & extended edition, so convenient !)

Many of those wrong locales of the first edition though, have not been corrected, even if I have posted them here for years.
I guess I've not given enough proof.

It seems like a few corrections from Beyond Teenbeat Mayhem were not reported in the PDF. For example, Pepper & The Shakers (Coral) were from an unknown location in the original book, then located in Westland, MI (confirmed) in Beyond TBM, then again cannot be located in the new PDF. What source do I have to follow ? Thanks a lot

UFO (Run Away Boy) is still blank even if I have interviewed the last surviving member and posted it here.

[mikael]

a few corrections (..) were not reported

"A few"? Not many at all. I did spot ONE (James Bond & The Agents - from the suburban label locale to Tulsa)
The rules of "corrections" seems to be too strict.
What's the point of posting "corrections" here really?

 

[mikael]

Rules for corrections:

If you have proof of, say, a verified locale, please provide your source of evidence: newspaper article (publication and date)... published interview (book title, 'zine title, etc..)... direct comment from a group member posted on a website (source link, title/address)

Citing a Youtube song clip random comment, or stating that "Discogs shows..." is not sufficient.

Well, lot of my infos comes from band members posting on my Youtube-channel. (Without those I wouldn't have been able to track
"impossible" band like the Plastic Menagerie (TN) or The Weeds (San Diego - not corrected in the book BTW)

Probably a case of observing the spirit of the law and not the letter of the law.

 

[mikael]

A future add perhaps?

 

[greenfuzz]

I’d rate it a 4. I’d love to see it added.

 

[MopTopMike]

A future add perhaps?

Sure thing, thanks!

Topside is better (but I like that one too)

Pan World 555 - Honolulu Hawaii USA 1967 (or 68 not sure)

 

[mikael]

Common People on Hollywood Int. came from Toronto Canada and is from '67. Confirmed thru a family member of
the two brothers who led the band.

 

[Al.Burnett1966]

The Associated Rec. Studios acetate listed as Unknown Group Name - Out To Lunch is by The Del-Satins (the song was released on their 1970 album but I don't know if it's the same recording or a later version)
