Odd acoustic punkish teener about good boys!?
3rd verse:
"We're super neat, we're groovy and cool,
But that ain't all, we're steady in school" XD

Ye Ye pop meets Iron Butterfly

Awesome track but this transfer sounds horrible! Does the original 45 sound that bad??

This is great but has been posted several times (maybe not this thread but yeah). Kinda sitting in plain sight, if you know what I mean

Someone should cover this. 1960s demo/home recording.

Definitely my theme song for the year 1969...and 2009 (LOL)

Absolutely fantastic footage of several bands playing live at a 1967 "Beat Festival" in Prague, Czechoslovakia. Kicking off with a version of "Land Of 1000 Dances" that gets more bizarre the longer it goes on, there is plenty of cool stuff to be seen here. Check out the tough all girl band towards the end!

Better not post anything as almost everything has been posted.

No, that's not true, and that's why this thread exists. It was originally created to find things no body (well, almost ) had heard before, true obscurities posted by people who maybe have no connection to the garage collecting scene that might have gone overlooked. Not cuts from a major label album that have been seen a bunch! At least that is my understanding, I'm maybe being a bit severe in my reading but yeah. Keep looking, the stuff is out there!

That is exactly why I started the thread—to post things that people mostly had no idea existed. In all fairness—and I troll YouTube weekly—a lot of the rarer finds have dried up. There have been some significant posts, however—that Messengers interview/performance TV appearance is amazing—so let’s all keep sharing.

Totally agree, alas many major label bands haven't been caught on video, a thing that keeps amazing me. It is my understanding that alot of great videos were taped over to save money. And if posting Kak was wrong, I do apologize for doing so

Not really wrong, just...it's easy when a thread like this gets older to lose track of why it was created. The occasional course correction is sometimes necessary !

While on the subject I used to have a video of the Shags, riding a hearse and playing on the beach. Divorce left the tape with my ex. Has this been unearthed?

Does not sound familiar!

If you click thru to "watch on youtube" you should get a pretty cool '64 acetate from the CA Quintet

Hope this hasn't been posted earlier if so let me know and I'll delete this post.

Thanks! For some reason I couldn't get it to post properly

Yes. It’s from THE SHOW WITH THE VERY LONG TITLE, a local public access show of sorts from NEW ENGLAND in 1966.

This one must have been comped. Again if it has been posted and or comped let me know and I’ll delete this post. I haven't been buying comps so that is an unknown territory to me...

only on a CD a shame
