The Sonics - Keep A Knockin'

[@markusalcudia]

This is the wildest version of an already wild song. Aaaaweeesome

[@XEpikurX]

Best Sixties-Punk ever!!!!! Amazing sound and soul!

[@joshgarrett2318]

I love the Sonics!!!!!

[@pgh45rpms]

This was the b-side of their 1964 hit single, "The Witch", that was rereleased in 1966. Best 60's band from the Seattle area.

[@DeanMk1]

How can a hit from 1964, be released in 1966? ...something doesn't add up here...🤔

[@LadyofWar1980]

This band isn't bad at all. I discovered them from an LCD Soundsystem song. This is the best Little Richard cover I've ever heard so far. Pretty cool!

Younger groups????? This version was recorded back in around 1964! Still sounds great today though.

[@MarcosSalustiano]

The first hardcore song of the history.

[@kelechi_77]

Definitely!

[@akannem4326]

coooooooooooooool!!!

[@GaetanoCozza]

Fuck, yhis baby is wilder and faster than any tune outta the whole Sixties. Love the vocals, tryin' to copy the natural wildness of Li'l Richie. Result? A SCORCHER!

[@anothersettlementneedsyour9628]

Crawdaddy Simone is heavier song, recorded at the legendary Meek’s studio

[@malfisher]

oh yes.

[@theorriblecunt804]

You Gotta Hear Little Richards Specialty Verson.....Your Drinkin Gin and You Cant Come In....Fantastic. alternate by him on Specialty.

[@MrGatorguy22]

Wow....what would lil' Johnson have said!

[@TheSonicmule]

Sonics,first to redline

[@ibuprofen303]

Yeha LR did it - and Jenny Jenny and maybe other Sonics stuff. I love both versions, the Sonics one is slightly punkier but I don't think you can beat the original LR vocals on this track.

[@LadyofWar1980]

@BlackVirusxz Hell yeah! "Losing My Edge" is my shit! :-D

[@mtvso8000]

moshing to this

[@TheFlyersfan41]
