Let’s see if this thread has any legs. “Garage Rock” is both an era—-mid-60s, and a sound: primitive, simple chord progressions and basic song structures, a “less is more” lo-fi philosophy. Meaning Garage Rock can still be played and recorded. This is the first song that comes to mind when I think of the genre. There are many others. _______________________________________________________ despite them | ||

Oh boy, I'll play  . Love "Garage Rock" from the 60s, I actually became semi obsessed with it in the 1980s, back when punk and new wave was morphing into college indie rock.The Kinks, IMO the originators of the 1960s garage sound- a bit harder, louder than the early Beatles stuff. Of course they outgrew this sound and produced some great pop records. The Easybeats from Australia. Like The Kinks, were produced by Shel Talmy. Guitarist George Young had two younger brothers named Angus and Malcolm. The Creation, a band I discovered in the early 1980s, Pete Townshend and Jimmy Page claimed them as an influence, same with Noel Gallagher from Oasis. They were also produced by Shel Talmy.

"Little Girl" - Syndicate of Sound. Click on the link. All these also posted in the 60s & 70s music thread. The drummers for Count Five and Syndicate of Sound look like the same guy. "The Almighty, He put some livin' things on this earth so a man can eat." - Festus Haggen, Gunsmoke | |||

I got news for you, Mr. Brown: you haven't heard the last of me. You may think I'm shit now, but someday you're gonna be sorry you cut me. I'm gonna catch on somewhere else, and every time that I pitch against you I'm gonna stick it up your fuckin' ass! Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Back when, a fellow that played guitar in a high school garage band would come around and play a little. This number is the one I remember best. Maybe a bit of polish added, but I imagine lots of homemade garage bands around '65 practiced this one. | |||

The Stooges were legendary around S/E Michigan. I saw Igggy live twice and you never knew how the show would end up. First time, December 1970 Farmington (Mi) High School Student Council staged some concerts, well this one was especially memorable, finale was Iggy being dragged off the gym floor by two Farmington cops. That was our last concert for awhile! If you are so inclined search Farmington High School Iggy And the Stooges there are a lot of amateur photos taken that night, I’m even in a few of them. Now, I can’t inbed it but listen to The Woolies, (Lansing Mi) and their rendition of “Who Do You Love?” Chuck Berry used to jam session with the Woolies when in the area. He used to pickup local bands, they were his favorite in Michigan. -------------------------------------—————— ————————--Ignorance is a powerful tool if applied at the right time, even, usually, surpassing knowledge(E.J.Potter, A.K.A.

IIRC, The Velvet Underground’s first concert out of the club they usually played was a High School gym in Jersey. Similar to the Stooges’ experience above. Lou opened the show with “Heroin”. Would have loved to be a fly on the wall. “Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present Generation to preserve your Freedom! I hope you will make good use of it.

And FWIW. The MC5, the band responsible for “Kick Out The Jams” and one of my favorites “Sister Anne” First time I saw them was around 1965, they played at Novi Junior-Senior High School at a sock hop but known as the Motor City Five back then. The bands that played were usually locals, these guys were from Lincoln Park. One of the members was a cousin of two of my classmates, forgot who over the years. Fast forward to 2019. South Lyon Public Library had a guest speaker, Wayne Kramer of the MC-5. Couldn’t interest anyone else in going so I went myself. Wayne related stories of his life, before the days of the band, some of his personal struggles, incarceration,his Jail Guitar Doors program, “ etc. I took a MC5 CD hoping to get it signed. As he’s signing it I said “First time I saw you guys, you were calling yourselves the Motor City Five and that was in Novi.” Wayne acknowledged that by saying “That was a long time ago”. I told him that I remembered that someone with or associated with the band had cousins that went to Novi. Wayne smiled and said “The Farah’s. My cousins!” -------------------------------------—————— ————————--Ignorance is a powerful tool if applied at the right time, even, usually, surpassing knowledge(E.J.Potter, A.K.A.

I hadn’t thought of the Standells in a long, long, time. I believe this song was on fhe same album as “Dirty Water.” _______________________________________________________ despite them | |||
