Description
I specialize in lost, atmospheric, and hypnotic 45s. Grading is done conservatively, visually. Check unaltered sound clips. I currently have a number of cool soul, popcorn, Latin, rockabilly, garage, R&B, country, surf, blues, funk, psychedelic, sunshine pop, mod, lounge, exotica, heavy rock, gospel, swamp pop, Tejano, townie rock, song poem, punk, and oddball instrumental 45 obscurities up for grabs. In addition to a small batch of Greek 45s, I've also listed some really fantastic and scarce garage band 45s from Texas this week.
ARTIST: The Crossfires
TITLE: Who'll Be the One / Making Love Is Fun
LABEL: Tower
CONDITION: VG+ (Lovely copy.)
Excellent mid-'60s garage raver with insistent rhythm guitar, bits of fuzztone, and great punk vocals. Some very cool and trippy production touches here by Richie Allen aka Richie Podolor (producer of the Chocolate Watchband, most famously, along with many great surf recordings). A very obscure record by this Texas group who learned "Who'll Be the One" from neighbors Robb London & the Rogues, and who were swallowed wholesale by the Sidewalk/Tower Records psychsploitation machine. Cool Harley Hatcher-penned flipside "Making Love Is Fun" has a ringing Bobby Fuller Four sound. Great 45.
