Yes there was definitely some dreadful bubblegum music but there was also some things that if you didn't know they were recorded by such bands and by perhaps some obscure U.S. garage band people would be all over their collectability.
The first two Ohio Express singles, Try It And Beg Borrow and Steal are great garage rock tracks. The Attack and The Standells actually covered Try It.
Indian Giver by 1910 Fruitgum Company is another winner. The Ramones covered this one.
There are also great psych and pop psych b-sides by Ohio Express/1910/Kasenetz Katz. You'll get a pleasant surprise imo if you took the time to listen to Reflections From The Looking Glass, Mrs Green, Turn To Straw and Poor Old Mr Jensen.
The Lemon Pipers also released some top pop/psych tracks and the b-side of Green Tambourine, in No Help From Me is another tough garagey type track.
Renick/Levine/Resnick wrote and arranged a heap of stuff during this time but one of the great garage band tracks by bthem is The Brigands-(Would I Still Be)Her Big Man. anyone have a cheap copy that they'd like to offer. An original is out of my price range.
