60s garage nugget


Could have been much more successful if they hadn't knocked back the management of Brian Epstein. This song for some reason always reminds me of the Pink Finks recording of Louie Louie done a year or two earlier. I have no idea how he got it but my brother somehow had this in his record collection of maybe a dozen singles. Back then you didn't buy a record without considerable thought on your choice.
EDIT: Produced by Joe Meek, who also produced Telstar by the Ventures. Using a shotgun he had taken from the drummer of the Tornado's, Meek murdered his landlady after she continually complained about his loud music. He then committed suicide at the age of 38. He suffered mental issues bought on by his heavy drug usage and once held a gun to the head of Mitch Mitchell to "inspire" his playing.
Meek was also a pioneer of recordings using overdubbing, sampling and reverb.

a lot of slow and chunky lately

the pernicious enigma. my dog walking album, also in my top 10.
the first few minutes has a weird almost neo-noir, smoky detective office feel, and a towering ending that takes nearly 10 minutes.







and some miscellaneous paradise lost in the car

 
Ryan Davis & The Roadhouse Band

This is bit like slacker style country rock, though the first track here has a low-fi drum machine intro, longish songs with wry wordplay.
