Members trill Posted March 26, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 26, 2008 They were American G.I.'s stationed in Germany in the early 60's. Considering they were fairly insulated from the more experimental strains of rock floating about the US/UK at the time, they're pretty damn interesting. That particular video is from German TV in 1965. There's five or six other songs on youtube from the same performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members trill Posted March 26, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 26, 2008 I had it several years ago, before my hard drive crashed. I'm not huge into garage rock, but I managed to find albums from a bunch of the bands I liked on Nuggets, like the Electric Prunes, the Seeds, the Sonics, Love, and the Sir Douglas Quintet.

Members trill Posted March 26, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 26, 2008 I wish I could find a video of them performing "He Went Down to the Sea," but I guess they didn't do one :[ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
