Hey guys I thought this would be fun, I noticed no one made  post about their favorite ORIGINAL  45 they own and the one they want the most so heres mine.

 

The Jury - Who Dat? on Port records

Also The Warner Brothers - Lonely I on dunwich(WLP)

 

 

I'd sell anything I own for a copy of

 

The Rogues - Train Kept Rollin' on Audition

The Plagues - I've Been Through It Before on FENTON

 

 

 

It's really a hard one to nail down but here's the one's that jump to mind immediately:

 

Ugly Ducklings - "Nothin".  It's a very weird press on Arc records out of Toronto who I believe were the parent company of Yorkville (the press you normally see).  Also, the b-side is their other big hit "Gaslight".  Nobody I ask seems to know anything about it.  I paid 4 bucks for it about 12 years ago.

 

Trashmen - "Surfin' Bird".  It's not that crazy or rare, but it's an Aussie press I bought for less than a buck at a bookstore when I was down under.  I also got Oz presses of Blue Cheer - "Summertime Blues" and Troggs - "I Can't Control Myself" and Jumpin' Gene Simmons - "Haunted House" for the same price at the same place.  All killer records if not super rare.

 

Shadows of Knight - "Shake" pic sleeve.  Found at the bottom of a box full of real shitty 80s jukebox 45s. 

 

49th Parallel - "She Says" I just really dig the B-side "Citizen Freak".

Link Wray & Bunker Hill - Friday Night Dance Party / The Girl Can't Dance

THE FIVE CANADIANS 'Writing on a Wall" 4-song 7" reissue on Get Hip Recordings...

And that's a GREAT one !!!

That's awesome that you got that one for so cheap! I just got The Invictas I'm Alright/Stuff I can't put it down, it pretty much stays on my player or close by.

The one (almost) fitting the Garage category I'm thinking of right now is :

"The Hump" by The Invictas

I'd been lucky enough to pick this one for less than 5 $ and this KILLER is a long time favorite of mine !!!

 

The ones I wouldn't even dream of would be right now :

"Can't tame me" by The Benders

"Lorna" by Adrian Lloyd

"Bad little woman" by The Wheel-a-Ways

and a few thousands more...

Boo Boo & Bunky - This Old Town/Turn Around

The Jones Boys - Honky/Beatlemania

 

But I'm madly searching for a copy of The Munks - Long Time Waiting 45s

V. Jealous!! That is a BITCHIN' sleeve [and pretty darn rare too - but you already know that right, ha-ha!!!!].

alley oop b/w sho know a thing about love, not garage really but close enuff. Just got it for under a buck. Why spend more than a dollar, be cheap. The crackles save you$

Niiiiccce! Both sides are killers. I don't think I've ever seen the picture sleeve for it though!

The Kingsmen "Money" / "Bent Scepter".  Absolutely rocks, brings the house down!

Not garage as such but I got an ep by the Searchers. Its got' Farmer John' on it which is a cracking track! I also got 'Meet the Dakotas' ep with The Cruel Sea which is a brilliant insrtumental.

I'm after 'Mogambo' by Sounds Incorporated.

Ditto The Plagues!! Boy, wotta top cut!! Would happily sacrifice a vital organ for a SET of Miramar Dovers singles!! Fave 45 I own may well be my German pic sleeve issue of 'Wars Or Hands Of Time'/'Undecided' by The Masters Apprentices, or the multitude of 'You're Gonna Miss Me' [Elevators] variants including German art sleeve, Canadian and US Contact. Most expensive [and therefore most treasured] so far is 'Someone To Love'/'Free Advice' by The Great!! Society on Autumn subsidiary, North Beach. However, this could all change tomorrow...!
