UNRELEASED 60'S PUNKERS

I always liked this one, which was unreleased in the '60s but eventually wound up on the "Epitaph For A Legend" double LP

Best thing on that set - I had to play it several times the first time I heard it - I believe I'll play it a couple times right now...

If I could only keep 5, they would be

Calico Wall - I'm A Living Sickness
Nightcrawlers - Want Me
Fanatics - Woman
Gentlemen - It's A Cry'n Shame (demo version)
Hallmarks - I Know Why

What about this one? When I saw this on Ebay I knew where it belonged - I'd have a hard time giving up this Hoosier Hoshot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0_w-0hpkz0

I was rather impressed that someone covered it. Has anyone else covered an unreleased garage tune like that?

Not strictly garage, but fuzz-laden freakbeat-punk, there's an acetate "I'm Gonna Have My Fun" from circa '66 by an unknown group (that I put out on Purple Heart Surgery Vol.2, since also available on Youtube) has been covered by The Primeordials on their Screaming Apple LP - and a fine job they do of it too. The Jaybirds played safe with a cover of The Kingpins' Baby I Need, an Oak acetate, reissued on Volume 1 of the same series (subsequently leased to Tenth Planet for "Kingpins For Sale") - I'm only guessing, but suspect their garage-punk cut "You're My Girl" or the venomous "Maybe Sometime" also from '66 Oak acetates, were just too wild for them!!
