It’s really cool the way it switches up throughout.

I know McCartney was a fan of New York Mining Disaster 1941.

i know lennon said he wished the beatles could sing harmonies as well as the kinks (but he didnt know they were cheating with rays wife hitting the high notes)

and with Eno conjuring BAAS elsewhere

The Zombies had the most mismanaged career. They should have been huge. I can’t believe the label released “Butchers Tale” as a single. I love that song but that’s probably the least accessible song on the record. Once they finally put out Time Of The Season it was too late.

Beechwood Park would’ve been a great single too

I think it was the b-side to that which is wild.

i had a dream last week that they actually had a heavy ass hard rock/metal-ish album in the 60s then i woke up disappointed it doesnt actually exist

Don’t think Colin Blunstones warm airy voice would work in that style but it would definitely be interesting.

Are you thinking of this

lol i never bothered to peep Argent after never really being a big fan of Hold Your Head Up

i dont even remember what it sounded like in the dream but it was amazing and i was like "wow this is so heavy i cant believe its the zombies"

That's kinda what I thought when I heard Argent

ive heard some good things about that colin blunstone solo debut though

They're ok. He's got one real f***in priceless dinger here

@HeyFella another nice melody mean lyric

damn, that cover

it was '74 you should see the pics Gene took for No Other

It’s lovely. It’s better than just alright as Elric said.

Don was the master of one liners :datass:

I feel bad for you..

I dont think about you at all

@Elric you got any lesser known recs from the OG surf rock era? Every time I try to dig deeper than The Beach Boys, D*** Dale, Jan and Dean, etc. I come up empty

What is happiness?
It's a moment before you need more happiness.

lol

funny you ask cause your Kenny Jones drumming post made me think about how you asked the same thing about the brit invasion like 7 years ago and Small Faces was my rec

but tbh no even when going through my Best Songs thread year by year i didnt really find any big surf revelations closest thing was realizing Del Shannon had way more insane bangers than i thought;
