The Raves - Don't Chop Down My Tree

Great band from New York City, founded in 1964 by Mike and Dave Jimenez.
Manny Roth booked them as a regular act at his legendary Café Wha on MacDougal Street and Minetta Lane in the Greenwich Village where they built quite a fanbase.
After their three singles failed to hit, the band parted.
The band still exists today with a different lineup, without Dave Jimenez.

Awesome. This innocent song is much more complicated as it seems when hearing it for the first time.

The best music of all time. Glad you like it. Thank you.

What a sparkler. I think the organ is a Farfisa. It sparkles, too

[@user-ci3gu1xj5n]

Thanks for that. Farfisa had a lovely sound.

Buena melodía pop,me gusta!

[@thomassmith8721]

Too good for a B-side. Could have been another single release.

[@user-ci3gu1xj5n]

I love that little bass riff that sounds like a chain saw!

[@thomassmith8721]

​@@user-ci3gu1xj5n Ha ha, yeah buzzsaw

[@owstonlad3859]

Many B sides are better than the A side..... all subjective of course.

​@@owstonlad3859 Hello I agree 100% Sometimes a 45 can be a two-sider, you know, when both sides are cool. Those records are like getting two scoops of ice cream for the price of one. Cheers
