1966 BEATROCK COLLECTIBLE IN GLORIOUS MONO
THE RATTLES
USA - (red) Mercury - (MONO)= MG 21127
MONO SOUND PRODUCTION = 1966 ORIGINAL first pressing One of the best live acts in the '60s German beat-rocking "Hamburg" scene where the Beatles got their start were the mighty Rattles who had a great stage presentation to the point where one could easily be surprised that they did not make it big. By any standard, 1966's "Rattles Greatest Hits New Recording" served as a strange career retrospective. Ranging in chronology from 1963's 'Shimmy Shimmy' to 1966's 'Come On and Sing', eleven of the twelve tracks were comprised of alternate versions of 'A', & 'B' 45's. Led by bassist Herbert Hilderbrandt and lead guitarist Achim Reichel were singer/guitarist Hermann "Rugy" Rugenstein and drummer Reinhard "Dicky" Tarrach. While the performances were all professional, and a couple of the versions injected a tougher edge to the songs ('Shame Shame Shame'). In some cases it is hard to even tell the differences. Highlights include: 'La La La' a nice slice of German rock with Achim Reichel turning in a crushing lead guitar. 'Shimmy Shimmy' is very garage band-ish. There aren't a lot of German beat bands that managed to turn in credible covers of American R&B standards. 'Shame Shame Shame' is one of those rare exceptions. Nice version. Elsewhere, 'Everybody Loves a Lover' sports one of Reichel's best solos and 'Come On and Sing' finds the band taking a distinctive turn towards a commercial effort. The song certainly rocks-out and was clearly written with an ear to success. That's not a criticism since it makes for one of the Lp's standout performances. Check out the BAD CAT internet line...
