So I can't really answer that. The 'Best' cuts were taken from an acetate with no info. Some of the "originals" are titled by the warped mind of Mr. Distortions himself, as was the "Best" monicker. Guess it's "Best" to say that than "Group Unknown". I like that better, actually.

Never thought about it but I'm sure it's true... ever sit around & listen to elderly relatives yap about shit from 50 years ago? Scary. Actually, I can only remember about 25% of the gigs from those days, but since I was a regular at The Horseman & later the Crystal, Pythian Hall, The Charix & Springers I think it's enough. And who the fuck would forget it if they saw The Sonics at 16? Or local gods like The Redcoats who I caught probably 30 times, watched rehearse, & went to school with the drummer? Not many I think.

I just found the reissue of "Break it All" last week. The title track is a real killer and everything else on it is great, as well! Such great melodies... As great as their compatriots Los Mockers, with a sound much closer to the Beatles rather than to the Kinks. There have been a couple of tracks by Los Shakers in some recent comps if you want to check them out but cannot find their records. From what I remember "Do not disturb" was on "Too Much Monkey Business 3" and a later track can be found on "Pepperisms".

They were originally known as the Intruders, but changed their name due to the Intruders soul group. The Movers can be seen backing Billy Joe Royal in the movie "Mondo Daytona", later reissued with the title "Weekend Rebellion" (with a totally unrelated, comes-out-of-nowhere clip of Grand Funk Railroad doing "Paranoid"!). And just to drive Gary crazy... let me mention that NOONEY RICKETT (him again!) also recorded a version of "Birmingham".

The songs are: >Ticket To Ride >Break It All > The Shakers were from Montevideo, Uraguay & released four LP's - Los Shakers, Shakers For You, La Conferencia Secreta del Toto's Bar & En el Estudio Otra Vez(with only one original member). Apparantly they had a mini reunion around 1985 with two original members & released the Otroshakers LP. As mentioned in another post, Break It All(one of my fave albums of all time) is A US comp of singles and other tracks. The La Vigencia De Los Shakers Lp came out in 1975 on EMI Odeon in Argentina and is a 14 track compilation of singles & album tracks(only a few repeat from Break It All) and the titles are all listed in Spanish even though most are sung in English. A cool picture sleeve was issued in Argentina on Odeon for the 1967 single "Cuando Tenga Sesenta y Cuatro"(When I'm Sixty-Four)/"Adorable Lola". The band by this point have Sgt. Pepperesque moustaches. >Videos are now circulating of the group. They did several TV shindig-type S.American dance shows as well as making a home-made type video of "Break it all"(very crude). > Apparently there was quite a bit of film shot of them. Here's some info that I got from someone in Argentina: Los Fabulosos Shakers video documentary. Includes some very rare shots from an unreleased film, and TV shows. B&W Los Shakers - Volver rock (TV documentary). Maybe similar to the other video, plus interviews with the Fatorusso brothers and a color shot from a film Mi Secretaria está loca loca loca. Movie with a performance by Los In. El extraño del pelo largo. Clasic beat movie; starring: Litto Nebbia, frontman of Los Gatos; performances by La Joven Guardia, Litto Nebbia, Pintura Fresca, Trocha Angosta and Conexion No 5. If anyone has ANY video of them to trade, email me offlist. Have quite a bit of stuff to trade. >Found these two 45s by a band called The Movers on 123 >Records. They are: Hello L.A. (Bye Bye Birmingham)/Hey You Hey Me > Blue Cheer do a version of Hello L.A.,Bye Bye Birmingham on their underrated fourth album. Delaney Bramlett & Mac Davis are credited as writing this one, so I don't know if it's the same song.

Well, I have owned Pervirella for about a year and I've owned Sore Losers since last summer. I've watched Pervirella once and Sore Losers at least a half dozen times so there you go! (Maybe it's just because Sore Losers has better looking guys. . . Jack Oblivian. . .mmmmm) You're right that both movies are kinda similar in the way they both have "rocknroll celebs", and they both have incredible soundtracks but that's where the similarity ends! Pervirella is a like a great 60s/early 70s sci-fi sex romp (think "2069: A Sex Odyssey", if you've seen that one!), with lots of um, boobs and potty humor. Sore Losers is more like a Russ Meyer meets Herschell Gorden Lewis flick with boobs and ultra violence! Okay, so I guess I wouldn't really be able to choose between the two! Anyone out there see "Gore Whore"? A local vid store has it and I've been meaning to rent it.

Regarding the actual content of the Best/ Gents LP, the Best do at least two killer tracks - "You Meant Nothing To Me" and "When You Dance". These are essential, and it's worth getting the album on the strength of those songs alone. The Gents' material comprises the typical inept covers found on most US garage LPs (ala the Justice label, et al).

I haven't seen Pervirella, yet have the soundtrack; seen Sore Losers, but don't have the soundtrack! Need to even it out! But I can't recommend Sore Losers highly enough, I've rented it twice from a video store (Vulcan, if ya'll are out Austin way). Both have great music, and gorgeuous gals.
