btw: selling my collection of 30 years on ebay/ garage punk from 60s/80s/90s.  search for my ebay store High Voltage Mail Order or just go here: http://stores.ebay.com.au/High-Voltage-Mail-Order?_rdc=1

"Comin' Down"/"Pop Top" by The Sigma Five.

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

 

 

 

Yeah, all that stuff really happened, ridiculous as it sounds.  If you google Dave Marsh and Louie Louie, you should be able to find some more info on that.

Is it really true that the FBI investigated this song in an attempt to determine what the lyrics really were?

(and - Kingsmen version is the one)

Thanks man, hope I can dig this out somewhere europe related.

 

Empress of Fur is rad, almost saw them once, but that is another story. Ha, the pooptones sound fun too!

I don't really know the answers to your questions, but I have a friend that has an original copy of it (the edition that is worth some dough). There are several other books out there with very similar content, photos, etc. under different titles that sell for much less money. 

So, if you are a serious collector, cough up the dough for a sweet book you'll enjoy. Otherwise, pay a fraction of the price for a new copy of a book with much the same info/photos in it and you'll still have a good time.

That's my two cents...

So am I missing something, why is this book only availble for silly money - is there a reason it's no longer in print?

Here's another vote for the Garage Beat 66 series, and I'll admit it was the Nuggets series (esp. Disc 2 of the first box) that drew me into the genre in the first place -- and because they're easy to find, I've found them to be a pretty good way to turn others on to the style.

Apart from the obvious choices listed above, Back from the Grave in particular...of the more recent ones I think there are some that truly stand out for GREAT GREAT music and COOL packaging:

The IKON Story

The FENTON Story

also

2131 South Michigan Avenue

Fort Worth Teen Scene volumes 1-3

 

But that's all US stuff...I always loved comps like:

TRANSWORLD PUNK RAVE-UP

INFERNAL WORLD

The really really cool DIGGIN' FOR GOLD series, mostly European stuff but also US and OZ

 

And I HAVE to mention Rubbles, especially some of the early volumes back in the early/mid-80s

I've been meaning to buy the Fort worth teen scenes, but I've got and love all those US label stories you just listed. The Rubble series are pretty gnarly too. Some I believe don't have great sound to them though.

I Was A Teenage Caveman is a delicious slice of primitive garage punk, I love that L.p to death. Pleased to meet you Phillip, any relation to Mick? :)

Nope, but I've made people believe I was. It's a fun game to play with really wasted people. Haha.

Las Drogas = Back and Sides

That Magnificent Brotherhood video rules!

I love these guys.

Not garage or punk, but metal.  Red Fang's "Prehistoric Dog" is one of the funniest videos I've seen in a long time.
