Hey, cheers... That Hollybilly cd looks right up my street...
the Spanish rockabilly label El Toro has released everything Buddy Holly recorded in 1956-1957...yo can find it here: http://www.eltororecords.com/english/index.html
Does anyone have some suggestions of good Live/Demo recordings that are out their? I tend to find alot of them rock more than the actual sides... Like the Jerry Mcain Excello Demos or Bob Keanes Ritchie Valens recordings... Jerry Lee Lewis Live at the Star Club... That cool New York Dolls demo album on norton etc.
I haven't heard the Buddy Holly Apartment tapes, but hear they're pretty cool, has anyone re-issued em?
Any genre really... But I'm especialy lookin' fer Old 50's Rock and roll/RNB hoots...

Horrible name, good band. Follow-up single to their In The Red full-length debut. (I think)
I don't know if you have tried, but I have gotten some good feedback from the Vox website. There's an online group I joined that mighy be able to help you. They also have a classified section that you can ask for what you are looking for. They helped me keep my Vox Jaguars,and my Vox Beatle working. And I also have a Vox Phanthom 12 string. Try them at NorthCoastMusic.com. attn:DOCTORVOX. Hope this helps. John
You got to age the Misfits-Static Age to great punks records of that era.
Thanks for all the posts guys.
I'll be looking into all of them.
I think The Who and The Kinks could be classed as Garage, but I would class them as British Invasion; but then again I don't count British Invasion as a real genre because really it's just 50s Rock N Roll come full circle; and isn't Garage just Rock N Roll played more aggresively?
Tis a tough cookie.
If you want modern garage i'd pick up the Oblivions, Gories, Mighty Caesars first... For 60s stuff I'd dig The Monks, Chimney Sweeps and the back from the grave series...
".........I only discovered the whole garage thing a few months ago" Well, Mikey you have just stumbled onto the secret of the universe -- real Rock and Roll! This 'whole thing' has been bursting eardrums since the early '50s! Just typing the term 'Garage' into a search engine wont yield the whole story because 'Punk' is a very important keyword in understanding real Rock and Roll. Be prepared that everything you might think you know about Punk could be wrong or different. I recommend starting with a record called Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era compiled in 1976 by Lenny Kaye (where the term Punk Rock is first used). Also check out this discussion: http://garagepunk.ning.com/forum/topic/show?id=833623%3ATopic%3A114711 Welcome to the first day of the rest of your life and I'm jealous because you get to hear for the first time some of the greatest records in the history of Punk Rock and I wish I could relive those moments again! Enjoy!
Hey there Mikey.
You have alot a great bands to discover so I hope you don't get to many repaets on this thread. Usually three just isn't a resonable figure to choose from.
That said 3 my favs are:
The Sonics - Number one all time favourite
The Monks - They truley were amazing at Dirty Water Club (cheers PJ)
and
All the bands that tought The Fuzztones (check out the double album "Songs We Taught The Fuzztones" for an essential list of Garage classics).
Happy Hunting
Thee Milkshakes
Stewed
The Mummies
These are just off the top of my head,but are the one's i play the most.
The Jaynetts are pretty damn cool "Sally go round the Roses", although they tend to do alot of versions of the same tune with different lyrics, cause it was a big hit for em... Like their christmas song "Snowman, Snowman, Sweet potato nose"... I also dig the bobbettes "I Shot Mr.Lee"... (1957 tho) Rosie and the Originals "Angel Baby"... Which Roky Erickson covered on "Don't knock the rok"...

good suggestions. One comp in particular you might be interested in if you have the $ or you're on a file sharing site: One Kiss... Also, the Girls in The Garage series is worth checking out. Both sides of the Pleasure Seekers available 45 are on Norton's "Hideout" comp of Michigan bands and the 7" has also been reissued. Anyone ever heard anything about their "Light Of Love" / "Shame" (Mercury) 1967 single? Man, i'd love to hear that!For main stream stuff, there are a lot of good girl groups comps that you can normally find digging through the buck bins. They usually chock full of groups like the Shangri-Las, Shirrelles, Ronettes, Crystals and Angels.... All of whom are in the same vein, but the Shirrelles and the Ronettes are my personal favorite. A lot of the motown stuff is pretty great too... The Supremes (Before Diana Ross became the vocal point), Marvelletes and Martha and The VAndellas are can't miss records.
A few weeks ago I posted this appearance of The Standells on The Munsters:
Let's start a "you can't miss this part!" thread. This was a big hit myspace bulletin I sent and there's tons more good ones out there. Post your favorite. We'll call this one the BATUSI!
The Best Gospel/Garage/Punk Band In Some Time!
So I went to a show in Fullerton CA and saw this band Death Hymn Number 9 and they fucking killed it. They have no singer but they wig the fuck out when they play!!! They sound like they grew uo in a gospel church but were spin'n punk/garage at home. Shits fucking AMAZING!
I found them on myspace, here's their link.

hey our guitarist/organist has one of these and it sounds awesome both clean and with a tonebender and a fender twin reverb...
I am one podcasting motherfucker. I'm still learning this fine art. I put my first one together from an old radio show I did a couple of Halloweens ago. Check it out at http://steveterrell.blogspot.com/2008/10/my-first-podcast.html
