Last of the Garage Punk Unknowns, Volumes 1 & 2: American Teenage Garage Hoot 1965-1967

[@johnmitchelljr]

Great series. My opinion is if don't like garage music you don't really like music. Thank you.

[@riverx6802]

AGREED.

[@surfstrat59]

These were amateur bands imitating their favorite British Invasion groups. Dances were a big thing back in the day, and these bands would supply the music. These 45’s were a marketing device, as it was easy to get gigs if you had a record out. People would “follow” their favorite local bands...🎸

[@andymoore9977]

Yes, all sounds like very much like the 'British Invasion' and a lot less like Buddy Holly. Holly and his band sounded so much better! The Brits were much more creative.

[@RoninAvenger]

Garage rock actually became it's own unique response to the British Invasion. It took elements from regional American music like bluegrass, etc, even earlier rockabilly and surf rock. They tried copying the British sound but ended up creating a unique sound, which is also the sound responsible for the creation of metal and punk rock. Garage rock saved American rock and roll actually.

[@RoninAvenger]

@@andymoore9977 lots of 60s garage rock/punk has a purely American sound, influences from bluegrass, blues, country western, rockabilly, surf rock, etc. It was a reaction to the British Invasion by American teens and young adults who created bands by the boatloads across the country in different regions. All with sounds that had some influence from their regional culture.

[@johnh539]

@@RoninAvenger As a Brit ,that is interesting.

I have LOVED this kind of music for several decades! I made awesome cassette "mix tapes" from all the hardest and most raw tunes from all the vinyl I have from this era. With that being said, I must say that this compilation is fantastic! Lots of hard edge tracks from bands that are new to me! Thanks for posting this!

[@gwugluud]

This series is much better than most of them, aren't they? Not even a single embarrassing to listen to dud on this one. Whoever put these together have the right tastes and instincts. Rock on! 😁👍

[@marksavage1744]

@@gwugluud yes, there are indeed duds in most of the compilations LPs I have. Some folks will love the tracks I skip over...... that's what makes music so great. And there are LPs that only have one or two tracks I like. Rock on!

[@gwugluud]

I'm a child of the 70s, not the 60s. But seeing the Munsters episode feat The Standells circa 1974ish... did something twisted to me. Lol. I couldn't believe the sheer coolness of it. Something about that weird organ, I loved the sound of it. After that I started devouring anything I could find about that period of rock. And the way they looked, and that smartass-sounding "yeah-yeah-yeah" at the end, and another thing that impressed me was that even The Munsters were shocked by them. I was like, "This is the REAL rock! Wt*!! 😱😱🙀😻😻 I walked up to older hippies I saw all salivating, asking them what was up with the mid 60s?? Some hippy invited me and showed me The McCoys and The Troggs and The Blues Magoos, The Animals, etc, and I was f***ing speechless. And another hippy gave me a Nazz album and a Seeds album, God bless him 😱😱😱🙀😺🙉🙉 And then The Ramones came out!! I was already to where I couldn't stand Heart and Aerosmith anymore, but The Ramones and the ensuing London stuff that happened after... I haven't been in my right mind since. And I don't WANT to be. 🥴😸💙💚💜💯💢💯

[@RoninAvenger]

@@gwugluud I can definitely understand that. I'm 28 and have loved this stuff since I was around 14, and have steadily found more and more since then. It was also the haunting organs in a lot of this stuff that really drew me in.. like "Sweetgina" by The Things to Come.

These are my childhood years. Punk through to new wave where my teenage years. But by time I was a young adult the fashion was to ware black and look as above it all as you could . OH well! (Think "This town" by the specials).

[@jeffclark4416]

Wow this reminds me of the Scene I was introduced to in the early 80's. We had so many great albums to listen to and great gigs to attend. I guess I am realizing that Punk Rock started long before I was introduced to it.

[@gwugluud]

I just consider garage rock as a genre; I don’t care about the 60s, it just happens that most of it and the best of it was done then. I’m not really understanding why rock wants to fix what isn’t broken. There’s no good reason that this kind of rock didn’t just keep being made all this time up to now.
