      What artist do you wish you had more by? Maybe you were born too young
      Or you discovered them too late. For me it has to be the mummies they released so much stuff on limited quantities.

      There are a few Gories, Dirtbombs, 5,6,7,8s, Mono Men and Man or Astroman 45s I'm missing.  I got into the Cheater Slicks late, so I really missed out on their 45s.  I just recently "discovered" the Wildebeests, so I'll be tracking down there 45s.  I kove 45s they are the perfect format for garage punk.

      I've recently bought a turntable (1 month ago) and often go to street or flea markets to get to some old vinyls and really got some pretty good records such as Los Mac's (Chile), Herman's Hermits, Los Quarrel's (Chile) and Los Beat 4 (Chile).

      I've got lots of records from Chile and, though the quality and sound are quite good, it is disappointing they were compelled to record a certain amount of covers before including some original music. That's the case of Los MAC's, whose first album was only covers and one original tune. Very sad.
      However, there are some bands who could do it and recorded a bunch of amazing singles like Angeles Salvajes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTp4bslq4Zk

      On the other hand, I do admire and I'd love to have those amazing 60s Peruvian records, since the main focus of wildness was THERE in South America and they mainly recorded original songs. For instance: Los York's, Los Saicos, Los incas Modernos, Los Datsuns, Los Apsons, etc.

      If I had to decide which record to add to my colection, it would definitely be Los Incas Modernos' from 1962. I love it.

      Cheers.

      Boy , that sounds REALLY interesting. But , I've never heard of it. I could look into the existence of such a thing. Then , the likelihood of it ever being reissued ranks up  there with Tony Joe White's semi - Garage Rock sides on J-Beck. I take it , Kenny Daniel was friends with Scotty McKay/Max Lipscomb , as his first comeback EP in the late 70's featured a perfectly acceptable (As in , great.) live Rock'n'Roll medley ( When such things were passe.) that included , along with "Black Slacks" , "Waitin'  In School" , and "Peppermint Twist", McKay's super killer non - seller 'Rollin' Dynamite".

      Talking about Kenny and the Kasuals, do you know if they did release a single or whatever back in the day for their great cover of "Down in Mexico" as M.K. Lipscomb's (aka the fabulous Scotty McKay) backing band under the name of GATOR SHADES BLUES BAND ? I've searched this thing for years...and never ever saw one single copy.

      Kenny and The Kasuals.  I know there's a UK comp that , like most , scratches the surface. I have the Live at The Cellar Club LP (DON'T FREAK , IT'S THE LATE 70'S REISSUE.), one of two EVA (Trademark of suck quality...BUT , when I was just getting into this stuff , I did'nt care) LP collections and a decent EP on the same label. I even have some of their Late 70'S stuff , most of which is pretty good . Still , a complete collection with GOOD sound and maybe minus a few ballads is 30 years overdue. Oh , well....

      For me, it's the classics whose records are just too expensive.  Absolutely The Cramps.  Very rarely do I see their originals in stores.  When I do, they're ridiculously priced.  And even the reissues cost a lot.  Also, Flamin' Groovies.  It's so hard to find their records.  After looking for about 2 or 3 years, I finally found a copy of "Still Shakin."  And lastly, anything by the Stooges.

      I'm right there with y'all on both the Mummies and Fleshtones singles...but tho I do own a copy of les Sexareenos' Singles and Unreleased Material collection I still want all the actual Sexareenos vinyl singles...& while I'm at it, to compliment that quest, why not all the solo BBQ singles as well as all the King Khan & BBQ Show singles (of the latter, I think all I'm missing is the BBQ & Blacksnake single tho I do have shitty mp3s of this release on a harddrive somewheres)

      Graham Day-- I love his music (Prisoners, Solar Flares, The gaolers, etc.) and also wish he would stop by the states one of these days.

      My god, so many. The Fleshtones and The Dirtbombs probably. Got all Te Dirtbombs' albums and a few 7"s, but they've put out an immense amount of singles. Always on the look out.
