two more things about the Classics IV




Oh yeah I forgot, there is a legitimate garage tie to the Classics IV, in
that member Kim Venables used to be in THE K-OTICS, who did the bossest
version of "Double Shot"!  Their "I'm Leavin' Here" and cover of "Charlena"
aren't too shabby either!

Guess I shoulda mentioned the two Capitol singles were produced by Joe
South, who also wrote "Pollyanna".  Now that cat was OUT THERE!  I can
definitely recommend his "Introspect" album, which mixes country, soul,
beach sounds, and psychedelia.  Perhaps the best way to describe it is SWAMP
MUSIC, cause no other labels really do it justice.  Yeah, "Games People
Play" is on there, but forget that.  This guy wrote so many great SOUL
SONGS.  He wrote "Hush"!  "Yo Yo"!  "Leaning On You" BY the Yo Yos
(coincidence?).  "These Are Not My People"... the psychedelic "Mirror Of
Your Mind" (not the We The People tune).  "Birds of a Feather".  Joe South
*IS* swamp music!

It's a gas, but I think I'd better pass...
Just ask Swamp Dogg, he'll tell you...
