I once had a Daddy Cool 45 on Reprise ("Hi Honey Ho") which I found at a Salvation Army in Nashville, Tennessee when I was a kid. I thought it was pretty decent boogie rock with horns. I was always curious if anything else this band did was any good. Any enlightenment would be appreciated.

Hey, I admit they had the hippie thing going on full force, but it's a chunk of history, dude. I actually watched it for the first time in a long time a few weeks ago on cable, cuz the Sly segment is one of the single finest moments of rock on film ANYWHERE. Actually, the Santana lead in is fucking great, too, even though he gets slagged on this list a lot. "Soul Sacrifice" SMOKES.

Bill Haley's is the version I'm most familiar with. Especially since it was his last Top 40 hit and it's another 45 I happen to own.

They're sort of a mix, but definitely leaning towards the psych side. #1 is American and has two of my faves, the Brain Poilice and Hunger on it. #2 is Latin, #3 is Asian.

As far as horrible classic rock bands go, although the thread has pretty much run it's course, I feel obliged to mention the band Boston with a shudder of revulsion. I don't think anyone else thought of them...perhaps it was too painful to mention...I understand... B-Face ps What is it about geographically named bands that makes them suck? Kansas...Boston...Chicago...perhaps the only band named after a place that is the exception to this rule is DMZ! Hey, it's a place!

Anyways, I spend new years eve at the home of Other Side singer Michel, and did he tell me?; na!. So where do I order this thing, Botswana ?. Jeroen, since you should get my regular newsletters you should have known about these releases. And I've also mentioned them on the Bomp list. Anyhow, the Otherside's 'In A Haunted House' and the Crimson Shadows' 'Out Of Our Minds' are volumes 1 & 2 in our 'The Knights Of Fuzz' series. In this new series we give the best bands of the 80s garage scene a proper CD release, collecting all their relevant recordings. For more info see http://www.uah.de/inbetweens/. On the website you can also order the cd's. And Jeroen, the CD's are also available at Michel's record store Da Capo.
