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, modern soul, gospel, swamp pop, Cajun, Tejano, metal, townie rock, song poem, punk, power pop, and oddball and unclassifiable instrumental 45 obscurities up for grabs. I've also listed some really fantastic and scarce garage band 45s from Texas this week.

 

 

 

 

 

ARTIST: Mike and the Ravens
TITLE: I've Taken All I Can / Mr. Heartbreak
LABEL: Empire
CONDITION: Strong G+ (Excellent player, nice gloss with typical light scuffs and scratches from unsleeved storage.)

Early garage band thrasher from Plattsburgh, New York, 1962. Pounding drums, hard attack on the guitars, and teenage harmonies all over this. I can imagine this crew lighting up the armory halls and high school gyms of the North Country in the early '60s. Clear Buddy Holly influence on the lonesome polecat rock 'n' roll of flipside "Mr. Heartbreak." Great 45.
