No es bueno my friend. Read the postings and comments. Kinda insulting remark me thinks, your ambition outweighs your talent.

I can only imagine you misunderstood my remark, and thought it was directed at you rather than at the author of the quoted remark. If not, I'm puzzled by your retort... unless you actually are a taxonomist? *

And I still can't find the offending quote - either verbatim or by imputation. Doubly puzzled!

* No taxonomists were intentionally harmed during the phrasing of my original statement.

No doubt your book is fab, yet let people decide for themselves and if you bother to look up the descriptions under the postings you'd see that they mention the 70s. By the way as good as it is your book isn't the Bible of garage

People can agree or disagree with the subjective aspects of the book. No need to argue that. The ratings, the descriptions...I think they are worthy representations for each song.
However the phrase 'moody 60s garage' is incorrect if said song was definitely recorded and released in the early 1970s.. It does not imply any inferiority. That comes from someone who believes otherwise.

I disagree, it is the Bible of garage. You ought to start a poll and find out.

Beyond Teenbeat Mayhem acts as a 'New Testament' of sorts...adding to, clarifying and correcting the knowledge

Without going into 'moody', except to say it's highly subjective when applied to music, I'd like to take objection to "'60s garage" being used in a temporarily literal sense. Certainly, when using '60s, '70s etc nominatively, then the '60s refers to the period 1st Jan 1960 - 31 Dec 1969, because this is purely a temporal use of the term; but when used adjectively, as in "'60s garage", then its meaning is more akin to 'of the nature of the sixties'. Cultural phenomena do not readily lend themselves to being forced into rigid time slots, and if you look at '60s garage recordings, they form a kind of lopsided bell curve, with a a few examples scattered in 1963 - 1964 followed by a steep rise starting in early 1965, a peak in 1966, and a gradual tapering off through 1967, which falls rapidly in 1968. However you still get some examples scattered up to about 1974. If you go much past 1974, then you run into neo-garage which is a different kettle of fish altogether.

Personally, I don't see any advantage in 'fitting' cultural phenomena - or natural phenomena more generally - into arbitrary time slots; but I do see an advantage in grouping things according inherent characteristics.

Despite the label name, nothing psychedelic in this! Cool organ, unfortunately the pressing has problems as the song slows down for 1-2 seconds two times right in the middle of it. Presumably a mastering error.

This was recorded in the back room of a record shop on a Wollensack (sp?) reel to reel tape deck.

TBM is definitely the Bible of US Garage as far as I'm concerned.

Of course it is. Nothing even come close.

100% Garage (despite the misleading band name)! - But perhaps the punk spelling of symphony was clue...

listed as "garage" on Discogs not so sure about that but a good Lou Reed vibe on this one new to me

Nice early 70s stuff, maybe not strict garage but has at least some of a garage/psych vibe

Anyone have an idea what city these guys are from? Though only age three/four years old when they were in their heyday, I grew up in the same town as the Huns and Tamrons (I'm hoping one day that my Aunt will part with both of these singles).

I couldn't find that information unfortunately, even TeenBeat Mayhem doesn't have a location for them, probably North Carolina but you never know

This - Psychedelic Psymphony - Don't Be Afraid - is a tune from the movie "Mondo Keyhole" and (re)issued by Arcania in 2006.
Pure studiowork I believe. I have no clue about the guys playing, but they were clearly in-the-know.
Peculiar name for being from 65. (If that is a correct date)

The movie is commonly believed to have been issued in 1966, but yeah possibly shot in 1965 and the music with it. The movie credits has them as the Psychedelic Psymphonette, which is an even more peculiar name if you ask me! On the other hand, the word psychedelic, though much less widespread then, existed since 1957
